History In the late 1980s, there was an appeal from the Department of Information to the major newspapers for helping minor local newspapers which were hampered by the press permit (SIUPP) problem. The government created regulations to cut advertisement space on a newspaper up to 30% of all content if they did not want to help minor newspapers.

Newspaper Chain
A sister paper is one of two or more newspapers which share a common owner, but are published with different content, different names, and sometimes (but not necessarily) in different geographical areas. Such an arrangement can offer economies of scale because staff and infrastructure can be shared. Formerly independent papers can become sister papers, as when the ''Wall Street Journal'' and the ''New York Post'' were both purchased by News Corporation (1980–2013), News Corporation. Concerns have sometimes been raised about such media consolidation resulting in less diversity of ideas, less competition in the newspaper business, or unfair competition. Conversely, a single newspaper company can start several publications. By doing so, it can serve different markets, or different audiences in the same market, with less overhead than if the publications operated separately.
