Senior journalist Rauf Chandy said, "There is no doubt that language distortion occurs in media institutions. There are many reasons for this." First, basic education in Sindh was better, but now it is suffering from deterioration. On the other hand, the situation in media institutions is that the youth who do not get any job, they enter the field of journalism. He said that earlier there were good proofreaders and sub-editors, they used to train them, they used to learn while working, but now this learning has stopped. Similarly, a journalist coming to a part-time job does not have time to learn. A person can be a journalist without having good language and grammar, why should anyone learn the language. He said that electronic media has degraded the quality of language in the cycle of breaking news. He suggested that the Sindh government should include the Sindhi language authority in the registration and licensing of schools in Sindh so that the schools are bound to teach Sindhi in a standard way and the media also get quality workers. Communication with Sindhi media owners is necessary for correct media language. Because only they can oblige their workers to use the language correctly. Ali Zahid, who is in charge of the editorial page of Kavash, a young poet, said, "The editorial page is important, where you get time to correct the language, but the editor should understand the language and grammar and should be familiar with the standards of accuracy. Before the editor of the language used to be understanding, but now most of the owners are editors, so language is less important to them. Proofreader is very important, but he is not paid much. They have no training, they proofread newspapers. They learn by themselves in the institutions. He said that training plans should be made for the workers working in the media, a media language dictionary or manual should also be made for them.
