The Better India News is an Indian digital media platform focused on positive stories.
[10][2] The Better India is run by Vikara Services Pvt Ltd, a company founded in 2008 and is based in Bengaluru, India led by husband and wife entrepreneurs Dhimant Parekh and wife Anuradha Parekh.
In 2018, BBC released a research paper titled "Duty, Identity, Credibility: ‘Fake News’ and the ordinary citizen in India".
[12] After The Better India got in touch with BBC, BBC research’s lead author, Sanatanu Chakrabarti, acknowledged the mistake in a private email:"We have looked into your concern and found that we made a human error when scanning a wide range of media for our report on fake news.
We have now amended the report..."[13]The Better India criticized BBC for not apologizing publicly and 'maligning years of [their] hard work".
