Malini Parthasarathy has resigned from the board of The Hindu Group Publishing Private Ltd.

Hinting at differences with the Board, Parthasarathy, in a LinkedIn post said, “My term as Chairperson of The Hindu Group Publishing ends. However, I have also resigned from the Board of the THGPPL as I find the space and scope for my editorial views shrinking. My entire endeavour as Chairperson and Director, Editorial Strategy was to ensure that The Hindu Group revives its legacy of fair and unbiased reporting.”

“Also, my efforts were to free our narrative from entrenched ideological bias. Since I find the scope for my efforts has narrowed, I have decided to move on. I thank all my well-wishers and friends who have supported this challenging journey,” she said further.

Malini had two stints as Executive Editor of The Hindu. Her last stint was from 2015 to 2016.

As per media reports, Nirmala Lakshman will be taking over as the Board Chairperson for a three-year term.
