NEW DELHI / NEW YORK (TIP): A new chapter was opened in development journalism with the launch of Blitz India at a power-packed online event on February 5. A brainchild of seasoned media practitioner Deepak Dwivedi, the weekly publication is backed by a team of senior journalists, noted academics, former bureaucrats and professionals from diverse fields.

A galaxy of dignitaries from India and abroad, who took part in the two-hour-long proceedings, lauded the new initiative and shared their thoughts on how media can play a constructive role in furthering the development agenda of a New India.

In his opening remarks, Blitz India Chairman & Editor-in-Chief Deepak Dwivedi rued the loss of credibility of the present-day media and explained why it’s time now for course correction. He promised that with its sustained coverage to ideas, policies, and activities that lead to improvement in the life of people, Blitz India will be a catalyst in the nation-building efforts. In the process, he said, it will also attempt to restore the lost credibility of the media. A detailed report will appear in the next edition of The Indian Panorama.
