SUBIR GHOSH

wildlifewatch.in was founded in September 2007 by Subir Ghosh. He is not associated with the editorial operations of the website now.

Subir is a journalist-writer who spent the first three years of his professional career in sales and marketing. He started what he was best at – writing – when he joined India’s premier news agency Press Trust of India (PTI) in 1991. He later moved over to the Calcutta-based daily, the Telegraph where he looked after the Region Desk till he left in mid-1998.

After a brief stint in the books unit of the New Delhi-based nongovernmental organisation, Centre for Science and Environment (CSE), he was instrumental in redesigning and repackaging the journal of the Federation of Hotel and Restaurant Associations of India (FHRAI) as the organisation's Assistant Secretary General, and also looked after the publications section of the Wildlife Trust of India as its Editor. In August 2005, he launched newswatch.in, an online monitor of issues and news pertaining to press freedom, journalistic ethics, and the news media industry.

Subir currently blogs whenever he can on his write2kill.in website. A sampling of his personal writings and other works is showcased there.
