Ravish Kumar said in his tweet that people can listen to him on his YouTube channel.
NDTV Group Chairperson Suparna Singh in an email to her colleagues reportedly said: “Ravish has resigned from NDTV and the company has accepted his request for resignation with immediate effect”.
Suparna Singh, the president of NDTV Group said, “Few journalists have impacted people as much as Ravish. This reflects in the immense feedback about him; in the crowds he draws everywhere; in the prestigious awards and recognition he has received, within India and internationally; and in his daily reports, which champion the rights and needs of those who are under-served (sic).”
“Ravish has been an integral part of NDTV for decades; His contribution has been immense, and we know he will be extremely successful when he starts afresh.
