About BH

Beyondheadlines is a news portal dedicated to ‘alternative news’. It is all about going beyond headlines of mainstream news reporting, as the name suggests. We aim at becoming a platform for all those voices that are often ignored in the humdrum of scoops and ‘breaking news’ by mainstream media.

In Shakespeare’s play Hamlet, while the protagonist is dying he pleads to his close friend Horatio – who knows much more than others, and certainly more than what Hamlet is reported to have said – to “report me and my cause aright to the unsatisfied”. We at BH aim to do just that – an attempt to ‘report a cause aright’. Hamlet dies with these words on his lips, “the rest is silence”. So will we!

We are a dynamic team of young journalists, researchers, academicians and activists who have come together to report what is not being reported and to voice their ‘opinion’ about the important events that unfold across the world.  However, some renowned columnists too opine on this platform of  BH.  This makes us, a sound fusion of old and new yet, promising faces.

Our office is located in the city of New Delhi in North India (to be used for all communication purposes). However, our contributors are scattered across the country to form a strong network. As of now, we look forward to provide you with news from Mumbai, New Delhi, Chennai, Kolkata, Bihar, Jharkhand, Rajasthan etc.

At BH, our primary focus is definitely India but we also aim at building a global network of informed young voices. On April 15, 2001 BH obtained written permission from News from Africa - an “independent online news agency that publishes news and feature stories written from an African perspective.”
