Background

News India Times was founded in 1975 and is a national weekly newspaper aimed at South Asian and Indian-American readers. It is published by Parikh Worldwide Media, which describes itself as the largest Indian-American publishing group in the U.S. The group's other titles include Desi Talk (New York and Chicago editions), The Indian American magazine and Gujarat Times. Dr. Sudhir Parikh, a physician and community leader, has led the group for more than 40 years. In 2019 he also acquired ITV Gold, described as the oldest Indian-American television station. Coverage centers on community news, immigration and visa issues (such as H-1B), India-U.S. relations, business, culture and Indian-American political participation. Community papers like this often take a generally favorable view of strong U.S.-India ties and of Indian-American leaders. I did not find documented major controversies or a clear partisan editorial position. Its stance toward the Trump administration is hard to pin down from available sources, and coverage appears driven by how policies affect Indian Americans and India, such as tariffs and immigration rules.
