South Asian Views On Global News
What’s in a name?
Belonging
The world today is a fascinating mix of people, cultures, and races. Geography has ceased to be a barrier to people who relocate for work or study. But at the end of the day, there is an inner desire to connect with people from similar ethnic backgrounds.
There is a need to keep abreast with news from their own country and to acquaint themselves with the events happening in the
community locally.
hi INDiA was founded in an effort to fulfill such needs of the Indian community. It is geared towards uniting the South Asian community with news that instantly engages it with current and community-centric information.
Each week, hi INDiA offers its readers a wide variety of
reading material, covering a plethora of subjects ranging from
human interest stories, local news, and politics, to sports, fashion, and Indian film news. With a network of journalists, photographers, and contributors both in India and U.S.A., hi INDiA is the news source for everything that matters to South Asians living abroad. Today, hi INDiA is considered an indispensable part of their life.
