In an email to the staff of the TV Today Network, Purie said Rahul will be moving on to explore new opportunities.
"After more than 22 years with us, Rahul Kanwal - News Director, TVTN, and Executive Director of Business Today - will be moving on to explore new opportunities," Purie said.
"Rahul has been an integral part of our leadership team, shaping television news with his sharp political insights, election coverage, and investigative reporting at India Today and Aaj Tak. His career, from a passionate journalist to a News Director, has been nothing short of remarkable, setting an inspiring precedent for aspiring journalists in our organization,” Purie said.
