Team Blitz India
The Indian Panorama is a labour of love for its Founding Editor and Publisher Prof Indrajit Singh Saluja. The weekly paper is also an expression of his love for India as well as a platform to project the rich South Asian culture and show how this successful community has made a place in the melting pot of America.
Started 18 years ago from New York, The Indian Panorama is a premier English weekly newspaper. It serves mainly the Indian community in the New York tristate area and Dallas-Fort Worth, from where it has an edition. Its digital edition reaches the Indian diaspora in the US as well as Indian readers wherever they live.
‘Ever Truthful’, the paper’s motto, means as long as it is helmed by Prof Saluja, neither fear nor favour can interfere with its editorial policy.
A community leader
The Indian Panorama and Prof Indrajit Saluja have become synonymous in the eyes of the reading public. He is not only an eminent editor, but he has also emerged as a community leader. He has been able to work closely with the Indian Consulate in New York and the Permanent Mission of India to take their voice to his readers, and take his readers’ concerns and issues to the Indian authorities.
Even as he is considered a leader by his own community, the Sikhs, he has built enduring relationships with organisations and people identifying with other religions and regions of India. To top it all, he is sought after by American politicians and leaders as well.
A multilingual editor
Prof. Saluja also writes in Hindi and Punjabi, and has launched newspapers in these languages from New York.
A pleasing personality blessed with the gift of the gab, he has also hosted talk shows on major South Asian TV channels and gets invited as a keynote speaker at conferences and major events.
Indefatigable, energetic, and unputdownable, Prof Saluja’s spirit and intensity of work are undimmed by his years. He tries to be ahead of the curve, as he displayed by making The Indian Panorama digital before Covid-19 taught that lesson to other publishers.
