His track record – from conflict zones to global summits, from documentaries to breaking investigations- is formidable. That his very first day has taken him to Tianjin to cover one of the year’s most significant diplomatic gatherings shows his readiness and NDTV’s commitment to being at the forefront of the big global stories.”
