About Us

In today’s times, writing about oneself amid the standards of journalism is difficult. In more than four decades of journalism, I have witnessed both the power of the pen and the power of education. I began my career in journalism in the media sector in 1984 with the Hindi daily Dainik Bhaskar and Swadesh group in Bhopal, Madhya Pradesh. Later, I worked with the Press Trust of India (Bhasha), and subsequently held key positions in the Lucknow and Varanasi editions of Dainik Hindustan of the New Delhi-based Hindustan Times Group. Thereafter, I served in responsible media and management positions with the New Delhi-Noida and Punjab editions of the Dainik Jagran group.

Over these more than four decades, I have reported on the legislative assemblies of various states, while also covering Parliament. I believe that news about the representatives of both Houses of Parliament should be given importance. Even today, the reality is that among the public representatives present in both Houses of Parliament, most ask questions in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha, but their names and questions do not reach the public through the media. Instead of questions and answers on positive and national issues, prominence in the media is given to questions associated with sensationalism.

During this period, I felt that a news portal dedicated to Parliamentarians should be launched, and in this endeavor, I was inspired by a Speaker of the Lok Sabha who herself remained concerned about the publication of news and activities of Members of Parliament.

In 2013, to the best of my knowledge, there wasn’t a single news portal that could cover both the Upper House and Lower House, the Rajya Sabha and Lok Sabha. Since parliamentary news is often linked to various ministries within the country or carries international significance, the coverage was expanded to include interviews and articles in addition to news stories.
