The latest issue of JAM magazine carried an ad for World AIDS Day featuring illustrations which have caused hurt to the sentiments of the community. JAM magazine sincerely apologises for hurt which was inadvertently caused.
We are doing everything possible to make amends. JAM magazine copies have been withdrawn from all newsstands.
JAM has been in publication for 11 years. It is a fun magazine meant for the youth and steers clear of religious issues. We sincerely regret that these illustrations slipped in.
Since our readership comprises all castes, communities and religions, we would never intentionally do anything to hurt their sentiments.
