Founded in 2016 by K. Chandrashekar Rao, Telangana Today came into being to offer a dedicated English-language voice for India's youngest state . The idea sparked when Rao, the former Chief Minister of Telangana and founder of the Telangana Rashtra Samithi political party, decided to create a platform that would extensively cover local politics and state developments to complement his already existing regional Telugu-language media outlets, Namasthe Telangana and T News . Today, the daily newspaper and its digital site continue to operate under the ownership of Telangana Publications Pvt. Ltd, which remains owned by Rao . Today, Telangana Today is run by a dedicated editorial team and is mainly focused on a wide variety of news, covering local and national politics, business, technology, sports events, and Tollywood entertainment updates . They're based in Hyderabad, Telangana, and have made a name for themselves among those looking for comprehensive, daily coverage of the happenings and development projects across the state and India . One interesting fact: A unique fact about Telangana Today is its highly modernized approach to producing the news. Their integrated newsroom was among the first in the country to have tech-savvy web developers work directly alongside seasoned journalists—or "wordsmiths"—to produce their daily 16-page broadsheet, 16-page tabloid, and digital platforms .
