From a Weekend Blog to a Positive Movement

The Better India started as a blog back in 2008. Our co-founders, Dhimant Parekh, and Anuradha Kedia, would spend their weekends documenting positive news from in and around Bangalore. More than a decade later, we have grown into a funded company reaching over 500 million people every month!

LOVED BY

It was a joy for me to discover The Better India, with its mission to shine a light on the good, rather than on scandal and sensation. By going against the grain and holding firm for over a decade now, TBI has shown that positive and inspiring coverage has a significant place in our day-to-day lives, and can reignite our belief that our country is full of people who want to impact their world and make it better.

Anand Mahindra

One of the best changes I have noticed since the article was published on The Better India, is that there is more willingness to talk about mental health and eating disorders in the Indian society. People are coming out and discussing their struggles.

Khushi Jain

It took this 'Better Indian' years to find The Better India. But I am glad I did because their stories are truly inspiring. I come from a humble, farming background and it's something that's in my heritage now. So I have always been aware of the issues farmers face at the ground level. Which is why I love how The Better India engages with them at the grassroots level, telling their stories and sharing solutions.

Pankaj Tripathi

I wish The Better India all the very best. You bring in a ray of sunshine and a lot of incredible news into my world. We are living in times when we have negativity and lots of nastiness coming into our worlds. And for some reason, all of the media seems to highlight only this. You are doing a wonderful job in sharing stories of good people fighting the good fight and the incredible work they are doing at the grassroots level.
