NEWSAHOOT

About Us

  • Transparency

  • Newsahoot is a bootstrapped ed-tech startup owned and controlled by Anmol Malhotra. Neither he nor Newsahoot is affiliated with any political party. Further, Newsahoot does not display any advertisements or sponsored content on its website.

  • Our Mission

  • Newsahoot is on a mission to make everyday news available to children. We do this by curating news that children will understand and appreciate. We want to empower children to think critically and be future-ready.

  • We are dedicated to creating a safe and healthy learning environment that encourages better cognitive development for your child.

  • Our Story

  • Newsahoot was born of a passion to make news accessible to children. Since TV news channels and newspapers have become too inappropriate for kids, there was a vacuum for a trustworthy source of information and knowledge that children could safely rely on.

  • At Newsahoot, we want to make sure that we not only keep our youth safe from unverified news but also equip them with the critical thinking skills to form their own opinions.

  • Our Values

  • Integrity:  We consider it our obligation to only write news that can be verified and fact-checked.
  • Responsibility:  At Newsahoot, we take the utmost care and responsibility to keep up the quality of our content.
  • Commitment:  The Newsahoot team is committed to providing the most rewarding experience to our kids!
  • Empathy:  Newsahoot articles are made to promote empathy in our children - we want kids to experience the lives of others.
  • Love:  At Newsahoot, we love what we do, and that is a value that we want to be reflected in the content we create.
  • Trust:  With Newsahoot, trust is our ultimate goal - you can always trust us to only teach what is best for your children.

  • Our Team

      • Vrinda Bachchan
      • Editor-In-Chief

        • All content published on Newsahoot is approved by Vrinda after eagle-eyed scrutiny! She also decides what content would be of most interest to children. In effect, she’s the gatekeeper to the content vault of Newsahoot. Although hailing from a fashion design background, Vrinda has over 6 years of content writing and editing experience. She switched careers once she discovered she was far more passionate about writing and content creation than she was about making clothes (which she never quite got the hang of, to be honest). Now, Vrinda is responsible for maintaining the highest standards of quality control we do at Newsahoot. She can be reached at vrinda.bachchan@newsahoot.com.

      • Vasudha Bachchan
      • Creative Head

        • Vasudha is the go-to person for guidance at Newsahoot. She has worn multiple hats in the past giving her an extremely diverse and holistic profile. She’s juggled being a content writer, search engine optimisation specialist and even a digital marketer. As luck would have it, none of it has been related to her History Honors degree from Indraprastha College for Women. She loves making graphics and creatives that bring life to Newsahoot’s social media, website, emails, etc. In her free time, you can find her stuck to her computer playing video games (Minecraft players ftw!).

      • Manavi Chauhan
      • Content Writer

        • Manavi is our amazing content writer. Initially, on the fence about content writing, Manavi has embraced her role as our go-to person for content. She believes that writing news for kids has made her greatly understand and appreciate the power of good journalism. She remains supercharged about sunny days, architecture, skincare and experimenting in the kitchen!

      • Anmol Malhotra
      • Founder

        • Anmol is the brain behind Newsahoot and our in-house legal expert. He started his career as a corporate lawyer but quickly realized that he’s more geared toward running a startup. He started his journey of helping young children from his time at school itself as a part of the Big Buddy programme. During his time at NLU Punjab, he became the team leader of the IDIA chapter of his state. IDIA is an organization that helps school kids prepare for CLAT. It was here that he realized that there was a lack of proper news sources for children and he sought to amend that. Any time that he is not working on Newsahoot, Anmol can be found cuddling with his dog, Radha, who is "his everything" (in his own words).
