The paper has a wide resource base of established writers and photographers, as well as a team of correspondents across India. A core tenet of the newspaper's values is that it must provide undeniably convincing perspectives and experience things firsthand before publishing content for readers. The paper strives to create a quality product given the knowledge, imagination and technical capabilities of its team, and it vouches for originality and the power of popular communication.
