I'd like to suggest finding out how much advertising space costs in Indian newspapers. It might be possible to buy a considerable sized advert, e.g. full page in a Statewide newspaper and place one with a little bit more punch. Let us take the Mahabharata War back to India ...
Of course BKWSU India will be reading this and so expect them to to apply some editorial pressure. But, generally, paying advertisers have higher priority than freeloading editorial subjects. It is the advertisers that pay the wages.
There are also two other important issues to remember, a) 'public interest', e.g. if there are such serious issues like scriptural re-writing, personal and financial abuse etc, b) 'controversy sells' in the newspaper world.
I read from the PBKs side that the ShivShakti army geared up against them courting newspaper editorial staff. We are witnessing the BKWSU attempting to manipulate 3rd party content on the internet. BUT journalists and editors have their own professional integrities and responsibilities.
However, I am not dismissing your suggestion. Indeed, I would suggest that it might be possible to start spreading the word via online Indian Communities for free.
