Before independence, only limited titles of Government publications were brought out and those too were limited to Acts, Rules, Manuals and Gazetteers. Now the scope of Govt. publications has expanded very much and it covers, inter alia, Government's Planning, Programmes, Formulating Policies, Social and Economic Uplifts, Import and Export Policies, Law Reports, Economic Survey, Gazette Notifications etc. Its main purpose is to bring the Government's policies, programmes and decisions to the notice of the various Ministries/Departments, as well as the public of all spheres. In the modern times the public is much interested to know such activities and policies of Government. The only media which can reach to common man is the book/official publication.
