Hi Vijay!
You can refer to the following books:
1. Keval J Kumar's Mass Communication in India
2. Arihant's Guide to Mass Communication Entrance Exam Preparation
3. Manorama Yearbook
Also, you should read at least 2 newspapers daily including The Hindu and The Economic Times. About the educational background, you don't really have to be from any specific stream. If you have completed your 10+2 from a recognised board of education with at least 50% marks, you are eligible to apply for this course.

Most of the professional journalism courses can only be pursued after completing 12th standard. There are some institutes which offer Diploma courses after 10th but such courses are not very useful when it comes to finding a job using them!
It is better to complete 12th and then pursue a good (and recognised) journalism course
In India, there are 2 main formats in which journalism courses are available. Bachelors Degree courses
Diploma courses.
