India Hood: The News Platform Built on Trust, Not Clicks
New Delhi [India], April 15: In an age when the internet is overflowing with sensational headlines, half-truths, and fast-paced content, the average Indian reader is left searching for one thing: trust. Amidst this chaos, India Hood has quietly risen as a rare beacon of clarity. It doesn’t shout for attention. It doesn’t lure readers with clickbait. Instead, it does something powerful—it respects its audience’s time and intelligence.
India Hood is more than just a digital news platform. It is a reader-first revolution, rooted in ethics, driven by purpose, and designed for everyday people who want real, relevant information. With a growing audience across India, the platform is setting a new benchmark for what responsible journalism looks like in the digital age.
A Humble Beginning with a Powerful Vision
Launched on February 10, 2022, India Hood was founded by two visionaries—Krishna Chandra Garain and Koushik Dutta. The idea wasn’t to compete in the race for pageviews or to go viral on social media. The vision was much bigger: to build a community-driven, bilingual news ecosystem that bridges gaps—linguistic, regional, and cultural.
Both founders came from backgrounds that made them deeply aware of the gaps in India’s digital journalism space—especially in regional and rural contexts. What they observed was simple: while national news dominated the airwaves, the concerns of common people, particularly in local languages, were often overlooked. News had become entertainment. And in the pursuit of virality, the value of truthful reporting was fading fast.
India Hood emerged to fill that void.
Two Languages, One Nation
India is a country of many voices. And India Hood ensures those voices are heard—through its two distinct yet united portals:
indiahood.in — delivering rich, relevant, and timely content in Bengali for readers across West Bengal and neighboring regions.
indiahood.com — offering curated, impactful journalism in English, primarily focused on startups, business, finance, policy, and national issues.
By operating in both Bengali and English, India Hood not only reaches a wider demographic—it also ensures that language is never a barrier to information.
What Makes India Hood Different?
While most digital platforms compete for attention with aggressive headlines, India Hood follows a different path. Here’s what sets it apart:
No Clickbait, No Drama
The editorial philosophy of India Hood is clear: present the news, don’t manipulate it. Headlines are crafted with honesty, often offering the main information upfront so that readers don’t feel misled.
Time-Saving Journalism
In a fast-paced world, readers value efficiency. India Hood filters the noise and delivers precise, actionable content. Whether it’s a government announcement, a weather alert, or a job notification, the goal is to help readers stay informed without overwhelming them.
A Focus on What Matters
From daily horoscopes to in-depth business features, India Hood covers a wide spectrum of content—but with one thing in common: everything is directly connected to readers’ lives. If it doesn’t help, inform, or empower, it doesn’t get published.
A Human Touch
Unlike faceless news aggregators, India Hood is built by people who deeply care about the impact of journalism. Stories are written, curated, and edited with a sense of social responsibility. The tone is calm, the voice is genuine, and the readers are always put first.
indiahood.in: Regional Reporting with Real Impact
The Bengali-language portal, indiahood.in, serves as a vital source of information for the people of West Bengal and its neighboring regions. From government schemes and job circulars to daily weather forecasts and AjkerRashifal (today’s horoscope), it offers content that’s closely tied to people’s daily lives. It also highlights district-level stories, cultural features, and local issues that don’t often receive national coverage. This hyperlocal focus allows readers to stay informed about the matters that directly affect them, creating a stronger connection between the community and the newsroom.
indiahood.com: Empowering India’s Entrepreneurs and Professionals
Meanwhile, indiahood.com is the English-language arm of the platform, focusing on high-quality content tailored for professionals, entrepreneurs, and economically aware readers. It features startup stories, market insights, business analysis, financial news, and government policies—everything one needs to navigate today’s economy. With clear, jargon-free reporting, indiahood.com makes complex topics accessible to all, while helping readers stay ahead in their careers, businesses, and investments.
Trusted by Millions—Organically
What’s remarkable about India Hood’s rise is that it has achieved over 5 million monthly readers—without relying on paid promotions or flashy tactics. The growth is entirely organic, driven by reader loyalty and word-of-mouth.
This trust has been earned over time. Instead of trying to follow trends or chase breaking news just for traffic, India Hood has remained focused on consistency and quality. It doesn't aim to be the fastest—it aims to be the most accurate, most useful, and most respected.
"We don’t go with the TRP rate race," says co-founder Krishna Chandra Garain.
"Whatever audience we have gathered, it’s all about their trust in India Hood."
The Road Ahead: Going Deeper, Reaching Wider
India Hood isn’t resting on its current success—it has its eyes firmly set on the future. The team is actively working to expand its journalistic depth and regional footprint. One of the key goals is to produce more investigative content that uncovers important stories often overlooked by mainstream media. Additionally, India Hood plans to enhance its district-level reporting, giving local communities a national voice and shedding light on grassroots issues. To further diversify its content, the platform is also developing a rich library of video explainers, cultural documentaries, and short interviews with experts. These efforts aim to engage younger audiences and visual learners while delivering meaningful insights. India Hood is also looking to partner with educators, influencers, and civil society organizations to make news more educational, socially relevant, and inclusive.
A Platform with Purpose
At its core, India Hood is not just a digital media brand—it is a movement built around the belief that journalism should serve the people. The platform exists to inform, empower, and uplift its readers with honest, practical, and time-efficient news. Unlike many outlets driven purely by views or ad revenue, India Hood follows a clear purpose: to deliver content that genuinely impacts lives.

By staying clear of sensationalism and focusing on clarity, India Hood proves that it is possible to grow while staying ethical and grounded. It’s a platform created for the people—and built on their trust.
