IANS News Service

English Service: The IANS English wire service forms the heart of IANS operations. It presents objective, user-friendly news in a global perspective. This makes it the content provider of choice for Indians and people keen on India, across the world.

IANS breaks through the often cliched, stereotyped and statist reporting of traditional news agencies. Its talented team of journalists and contributors - some of the best in India - produces a steady output of diverse, well-researched news and backgrounders, features, interviews, analyses and commentaries that take into account the aspirations of the emerging New India.

IANS coverage spans politics and public policy, strategic and corporate affairs, business and economy, arts and literature, environment and social issues, religion and lifestyle, entertainment and sports.

Given its collaborations with several international news organisations, the IANS service is often used by media as a one-stop source of all news - both domestic and international. Industry, media circles and government departments depend on it. Officials use it for policy publicity and public diplomacy.

IANS serves over 500 subscribers across the entire media spectrum - print, web, electronic, mobile -- in India and around the world. It performs a whole range of other information services as well, and is anchored by experienced media professionals.

IANS has a network of over 150 correspondents in India, reporting from bureaus in New Delhi, Mumbai, Kolkata, Lucknow and Chennai, as well as every other state capital. It has one of the largest networks of foreign correspondents for any Indian media, reporting from key datelines like Washington, London, Johannesburg, Dubai, Islamabad, Kathmandu, Dhaka, Colombo, Singapore and Sydney.
