Stories That Matter Hi! I am Sarada Lahangir, a journalist by profession with 29 years of hands-on experience with print, television, and digital media. I have covered all kinds of news, happenings, and issues in the eastern region, from local happenings to deep rooted developmental issues, politics, crime, conflict, and disaster. What I have seen over the years is that there are many stories around us that matter to us, have impacted our lives, and need to be told to people, but they do not get space in the main stream media. I have seen that many such stories are either not covered by the main stream media or get lost somewhere with sensational news items that give TRP to the channel. This is the reason I thought that I should bring such stories from the hinterland, those are the stories of life, stories of struggle, stories of livelihood, and stories of inspiration. Yes, I will bring such stories that impact our lives and the stories that matter to us.
