The above statement is true.
Printed tracts and newspapers shaped the nature of the religious debate in India.
There were active arguments about religious matters starting in the early nineteenth century. Different groups responded to the changes occurring in colonial society in various ways and provided a range of new interpretations of religious doctrines. Some advocated for reform and criticised existing practices, while others disputed their claims. These discussions took place on paper and in front of the public. Printed tracts and newspapers influenced the debate's character and distributed new ideas. A larger audience participated in public debates and shared their opinions. These disagreements led to the development of novel concepts.
