Founded in 2022 by the India Today Group (Living Media India Ltd), India Today NE came into being to serve as a dedicated digital and broadcast news platform for Northeast India. The idea sparked when the media group recognized a persistent gap in mainstream Indian media coverage regarding the unique political, socio-cultural, and regional affairs of the eight northeastern states. Operating out of Guwahati, Assam, the platform functions as a regional extension of India Today’s network. Today, India Today NE covers regional politics, local governance, cultural heritage, environmental concerns, sports, and human-interest stories across Assam, Meghalaya, Manipur, Mizoram, Nagaland, Tripura, Arunachal Pradesh, and Sikkim. It bridges hyper-local reporting with national reach through digital reporting, video journalism, and social media coverage. One interesting fact: A unique fact about India Today NE is that it was established to provide ground-level reporting directly from all eight northeastern states simultaneously, offering dedicated localized editions and video channels tailored specifically to each state's distinct regional languages and community issues.
