I have around 25 years Experience in both TV & Print Media from grassroots level to the Top. Television is my passion & Print is my base. I am one of those few Journalists who have experience of working in TV & Print both. I have worked with SAHARA Group for 17 years. Was in SAHARA SAMAY TV Channel (Now known as SAMAY) for 5 years. I was involved in over all Planning & launching of SAHARA SAMAY TV Channel. I organised the whole TV News Room working System for Editorial not only at Headquarter at NOIDA but at State HQs all across the country also.
Similarly in Print, I became the Resident Editor of RASHTRIYA SAHARA National Hindi Daily and also got experience to Launch RASHTRIYA SAHARA from Patna & a few more Weekly and Monthly Magazines from Delhi, Patna & Guwahati. Now I am heading two Editions of National News magazine THE SUNDAY INDIAN as Executive Editor.
