Upendrra Rai to launch a new Hindi newspaper: Bharat Express

After launching Hindi news channel 'Bharat Express' earlier this year, Upendrra Rai has announced he will soon launch his next media venture in print: a new Hindi daily with the same name.

The newspaper, in its first phase, will be printed from Delhi NCR, Lucknow, Varanasi, Dehradun and Gorakhpur.

The new print offering will encourage the younger generation, which seeks its information from social media, to bring back the habit of “reading a newspaper”.

Upendrra Rai, CMD & editor-in-chief, Bharat Express, said, “Ever since its foray into the news media, Bharat Express has piqued the interest of news viewers and media fraternity alike. With Bharat Express news daily, we intend to follow the same trajectory of elevated quality and integrity of journalism. Having the support of a team of dedicated journalists and media professionals, I am assured that with its launch, Bharat Express News daily will set a new benchmark in media.”
