Prabhu Chawla joins Indian Express

Stalwart in the field of journalism Prabhu Chawla has put in his papers at the India Today Group. With this, Mr. Chawla has finally put a big full stop to all the speculations about his detachment with India Today. Prabhu Chawla is now said to have joined the Indian Express Group, however, his designation there is still not revealed.

Till yet, rumors of regarding process of putting his candidature on the back burner in the group were hovering in the air, as the management started to neglect him after the association of senior journalist M.J. Akbar with the company.

India Today Group had appointed MJ Akbar as Editorial Director of India Today - English and India Today - International and their extensions. Chawla was then given the charge of Editor (Languages) and CEO. Before holding this post, he had worked as Editorial Director of the magazine India Today for 14 years.

Chawla had started his journalistic career with India Today and had then joined The Indian Express. He then rejoined India Today, first as Editor of the Hindi edition, and then the English edition too.
