Times Now‘s editorial director and editor-in-chief, Rahul Shivshankar, has quit.

His Twitter bio, which reads ‘Editor-In-Chief TIMES NOW, 2016 to 2023,’ revealed that he was leaving the media company.

As Chief Editor, he joined Bennett Coleman & Company’s broadcast division in 2016.

He was the editor-in-chief of NewsX before joining Times Now.

Shivshankar was back on the English news channel for the second time.

He worked closely with Arnab Goswami during his first stint before leaving the channel as senior editor to join India Today Television as Executive Editor.

Shivshankar joined NewsX in September 2013 as managing editor and was promoted to editor-in-chief after a year.

Shivshankar has written several comment pieces on current events and extensively documented the November 26, 2008, attack on Nariman House in Mumbai in an anthology of hard-hitting investigative narratives published by Roli Books.
