Mass Communication & Media

There are no parameters to judge who is the no 1 journalist in India. The battle for being the no 1 journalist in India is between popular news channels like NDTV, Aaj Tak, India TV, Republic Bharat, News18 Hindi etc. Each journalist associated with these channels has their own positives and negatives.

So no one can claim to be the no 1 journalist in India, however, just to put a general perspective, some top journalists in India in terms of viewership and fan following are Arnab Goswami, Ravish Kumar, Anjana Om Kashyap, Sweta Singh, Punya Prasoon Vajpayee, Rajat Sharma, Rahul Kanwal, Saurabh Dwivedi, Ajit Anjum, Barkha Dutt, Fayw D'souza, Sudhir Choudhary, Aman Chopra, Syed Ansari, Sapna Shukla, Ankita Dubey, etc. These journalists are popular among the masses for their fierce approach, descriptive journalism, uncovering the truth, and going the extra mile to unearth conspiracies and corruption.
