India-West and India Journal, two prominent print media outlets catering to the Indian community in California, have recently merged to form a stronger voice for the local community. Recognizing the challenges faced by print media in the digital age, the merger aims to leverage a robust digital presence while continuing to provide essential news and information to the Southern and Northern California regions. With IndiaWest as the surviving entity, the combined newspaper will serve as a reliable source of local news, addressing the needs of the community and filling the gap left by national media.
Founded in 1975 by Ramesh and Bina Murarka, India-West has been a trusted source of news for over four decades, while India Journal, established in 1988 by Mohinder Singh, has focused on addressing community issues. With the merger, the newspaper will benefit from the expertise of both teams, with Ramesh Murarka as the Publisher and President of India West, and Parminder Singh, President of India Journal, joining as Vice President and General Manager of the Southern California office. The first combined issue is set to be released on August 30, 2019, marking a new chapter in providing comprehensive coverage and serving the Indian community in California.
