Popular Journalist and anchor Nidhi Razdan has resigned from NDTV. This resignation is the latest one from NDTV, after a series of resignations at the company after it was taken over by the Adani group.
According to Newslaundry, Nidhi Razdan has worked at NDTV 24×7 for over two decades. After her resignation, she shared the news with a tweet. In the tweet, she said, ‘her journey with the channel has been a “roller coaster ride, but you have to know when to get off’.
Earlier in 2022, the Adani group acquired a 27.26% equity stake in NDTV from the Roys, founders of the news broadcaster. Prior to that, the NDTV board also appointed two nominee directors of the richest Asian Gautam Adani-run conglomerate on the board – Sanjay Pugalia and Senthil Sinniah Chengalvarayan.
Furthermore, Adani Group acquired a 29.18% stake in NDTV by buying a company backed by the television network’s founders, Radhika Roy and Prannoy Roy. Thereafter, it made an open offer to acquire an additional 26% from public shareholders.
Journalist Sreenivasan Jain resigned from NDTV on January 28. He has been associated with the news channel since 1995.
