The editor of Mumbai Mirror emailed that they have other commitments, to wit their Quick crossword. The editor of Mid-day did not respond. Incidentally the Mid-day runs a Bollywood-related crossword on Sunday! I think only The Hindu among the mainstream papers runs a daily Cryptic Crossword with Indian setters.

I wish someone living there buy one copy each of the morning/afternoon/evening papers - one week day and Sunday - and do research to see what the market is like.<br />Similarly those living in Delhi or Calcutta.<br />Which newspapers use puzzles by Indians?
