The retrospective identified Ulhas Marathe as chief editor and Vilas Marathe as managing editor.[1]

The event was attended by Union minister Nitin Gadkari, Lokmat Media Group editorial chairman Vijay Darda, Indian Newspaper Society president Rakesh Sharma and other representatives of the newspaper industry. Discussions at the event addressed the financial challenges facing regional newspapers, government advertising and the role of print journalism.[3]
In September 2025, Vilas A. Marathe of Dainik Hindusthan was elected to the Executive Committee of the Indian Newspaper Society for the 2025–26 term.[4]
