CQ- Raj Kamal Jha becomes editor-in-chief of India Express Group

As the Sekhar Gupta on 3rd June morning has given his resignation from the post of chief editor to join the Indian TV Group, the Indian Express Group on the same day has appointed Raj Kamal Jha to the post of chief editor.




The news was announced by Viveck Goenka, Chairman and Managing Director, Indian Express Group. He stated that with much regret, I accept Shekhar Gupta’s resignation as Editor-in-chief of the Indian express. I truly appreciate his letter to all of us and I wish him the very best.    

Since 1992, Jha has been working full time in newsrooms. He was Assistant Editor (News) at The Statesman, Kolkata, from 1992 to 1994, Senior Associate Editor at India Today, New Delhi (1994-1996), and since 1996 has been with The Indian Express, first as Deputy Editor, then as Executive Editor, Managing Editor and now Editor. Jha is also an acclaimed novelist whose works inhabit the surreal, often dark and violent, space between fiction and fact to explore contemporary India.
