WSJ to provide content to new Indian newspaper

A new business newspaper in India being run by former Wall Street Journal deputy managing editor Raju Narisetti will carry content from the WSJ, according to wire reports.

The Hindustan Times would have WSJ branded sections with business news and other content.

HT Media, publisher of Hindustan Times, had earlier roped in Narisetti, a former deputy managing editor of the WSJ and editor of the WSJ Europe, as the editor of the new business daily. An HT Media release said the newspaper would be ‘written and edited for global Indian business readers and international business travellers’.

Sobhana Bhartia, editorial director of Hindustan Times and vice chairperson of HT Media Limited, told a television channel that details regarding content sharing are still being worked out. There is also a possibility that the new newspaper would carry the The WSJ masthead but no decision has been taken, she added.
