NDTV has recently announced the addition of three accomplished editorial professionals to its NDTV India newsroom — Subhankar Mishra, Meenakshi Kandwal, and Malika Malhotra. Their addition marks a strategic step in shaping NDTV India’s evolving approach to journalism: credible, grounded and aligned with the questions that matter to Bharat.
Each of them brings a distinct set of strengths and experiences, from digital journalism to primetime anchoring and deep field reporting, a media statement from NDTV yesterday stated.
Mishra has built one of the largest digital followings among Hindi journalists, with over 30 million followers across platforms. His credibility stems from consistent on-ground reporting and a strong connect with audiences in tier 2 and tier 3 cities of India. His approach to journalism is marked by presence and participation, often reporting from regions that receive limited national coverage.
Kandwal brings over a decade of experience across broadcast journalism. She has covered a wide spectrum of stories, from live disaster coverage to in-depth field reports. Her strength lies in anchoring with perspective and reporting with clarity that bring out stories that go beyond the headlines.
Malhotra adds depth to the editorial team with her long-format field reportage. Her coverage of farmer protests from the Singhu border in Delhi and her follow-up reporting in Joshimath reflect a journalism rooted in persistence and continuity. Her ability to stay with stories beyond the news cycle sets her apart.
Commenting on the new additions, Rahul Kanwal, CEO & Editor-in-Chief of NDTV, said, “Each of them brings something critical to the newsroom. Subhankar’s digital-first strength, Meenakshi’s editorial steadiness, and Malika’s commitment to field reporting. They are not chasing headlines; they are building trust. That’s the direction we are taking.”
The editorial direction of NDTV India is undergoing a conscious shift towards a more responsible and meaningful journalism. The focus is on credibility, consistency, and context, which, the media company feels, are essential to serving the information needs of a changing India.
