Senior journalist and author Dr. Anil Singh, whose career spans more than three decades across television, print and digital journalism, is currently in the United States covering the November 3 midterm elections for STAR Views and Top Story. His reporting assignment brings the experience of leading Indian newsrooms to an examination of American politics and its implications for India and the wider world.

Dr. Singh has served as Executive Editor at STAR News, Aaj Tak and News24, holding editorial leadership responsibilities at some of India’s prominent television news organisations. His career encompasses political reporting, newsroom management, election coverage, interviews and analysis of national and international affairs. These roles have required both the judgement to guide daily news coverage and the ability to explain complex developments to a broad audience.

He currently serves as Editor of STAR Views, a U.S.-based digital news network based in Washington, D.C., and Editor of Top Story, an English daily with a stated circulation of approximately 60,000–70,000 copies across Delhi and the National Capital Region. At Top Story, his editorial responsibilities encompass national and international affairs, while STAR Views provides a platform for interviews, digital reporting and political commentary connecting Indian and overseas audiences.

During his current American assignment, Dr. Singh is reporting from Washington, D.C., and visiting other East Coast states to assess the electoral atmosphere. His coverage explores the contest between Republicans and Democrats, President Donald Trump’s influence on the campaign, concerns over living costs and employment, immigration policy, and the perspectives of Indian-origin voters.

He also plans to travel to Chicago, extending his reporting through further conversations with experts, community representatives and voters. The assignment seeks to bring together observations from the field and a range of perspectives to provide Indian audiences with a fuller understanding of the election and its aftermath.

Dr. Singh’s work extends beyond television and daily news coverage. As an author, his books include Bihar: Chaos to Chaos and The Prime Minister: Discourses in Indian Polity, reflecting his sustained engagement with Indian politics, governance and leadership. His interviews with political leaders, public figures and specialists form another important part of his journalistic work.

His international engagements include participation as a speaker at the World Public Assembly in Moscow in September 2026. He has also covered parliamentary and diplomatic events, including the BRICS Parliamentary Forum at the historic Central Hall of Samvidhan Sadan in New Delhi.

With experience across major television newsrooms and current leadership roles in print and digital media, Dr. Singh’s professional identity rests on a combination of editorial judgement, political analysis and reporting from the field. His ongoing U.S. election coverage adds an international dimension to a career focused on explaining the decisions, institutions and public concerns that shape political life.
