Very Well, Jignesh! So, what is your motivation to work and did you face any challenges while starting your own venture and setting your foot into this new industry?
My motivation is very short and simple, no offence but I feel that today’s media, the big media houses or established firms doesn’t show the truth and the things that people should know. It is the duty to the media to serve people of the country. When this was not happening, I decided to launch the Digital News agency and get the right news to the people. Mobile is a powerful weapon hence the idea of Digital News.
And I did face challenges and hurdlers before starting and event during my initial days people passed taunts and comments. You know making sure that I don’t do. They tried their best to demotivate me, but I kept going. There were times when I wanted to give up and stop everything but I kept going and here I’m today.
One of the challenges that I faced in person was of biasness, my knowns used to call me out and say I will support a particular party or an ideology and stuff.
You talked about ideology, so what is your ideology, what do you believe in?
I believe in something that is very simple. My ideology is to serve the correct news to people and show them the truth. This is what I believe in.
