It gives me immense pride to serve as the Chief Patron of the Digital News and Media Council of India (DNMCI) – an institution dedicated to strengthening the voice of digital media professionals across our nation and beyond.

In today’s era, where technology and communication are evolving at an unprecedented pace, digital media has emerged as the most powerful tool of information, awareness, and social change. The responsibility of every digital journalist and media professional is not only to inform but also to inspire, to uphold truth, and to maintain the highest standards of ethics and integrity.

The DNMCI, under the able leadership and vision of Dr. Nixan Thottan, Secretary General, has been tirelessly working to build a strong and credible platform for digital media professionals. His dedication to empowering journalists, nurturing ethical practices, and creating opportunities for growth has set the foundation upon which this Council stands today.

As Chief Patron, I extend my full support to this remarkable initiative and envision DNMCI becoming a trusted nodal body, fostering collaboration with government institutions, civil society, and international organizations to strengthen transparency, credibility, and professionalism in the digital media ecosystem.

I warmly welcome each of you – Media Professionals, Students, and Stakeholders – to be part of this Journey. Together, with leaders like Dr. Thottan, and the DNMCI team, let us build a Stronger, Ethical, and Globally Recognized Digital Media Community for India.
