Lalluram.com, is not just any other digital news portal in the country. Rather, it is the people’s hope, trust, and faith in Lalluram; that has created its real worth. The news portal has set standards in Chhattisgarh as a trustworthy source of information for the common man, politicians, and bureaucrats alike. Today, it has established a credible space for itself in the media industry.

Namit Jain, the Chairman, started this venture with only four core members in February 2017. He said that in 2017, when the Digital space had just begun spreading its wings and people had easy access to the Internet; he realized the power and influence that digital media would hold in the future. The acknowledgment and realization made him curious about the endless possibilities’ internet offered and inspired him to bring a unique offering to the table. He thinks that Digital Media has been growing exponentially and is almost competing at par with the traditional media.

Namit suggested that there is an interesting reason behind the name of the website. He always believed that the people of Chhattisgarh are different from the people of other states. Here the majority belongs to honest people who prefer to live life with simplicity and collective sensibility within their community.  He states that Lallu or Lalluram is a very common name in the state. Nonetheless, he finds it interesting that while many perceive Lallu as someone with low intelligence in other places, it has a completely different context in Chhattisgarh. Here, Lallu or Lalluram denotes Truth and Simplicity.

He believes that the website instates this admirable quality in each news coverage. He recalled that many disapproved of the name and suggested that it sounded superficial for an online news agency. However, his team trusted his creative genius and supported him. They agreed that the credibility in the content would leave a mark on readers, and eventually, each household would share their thoughts regarding the news portal.

The collective commitment of Lalluram`s team and his management style has brought them to the frontlane and in full throttle. He vividly remembers the first news that they published on the website on the 7th of April 2017. They were always ambitious to drive the news portal to greater heights. However, they underestimated the time it would take to reach that level.

Within a month, by May 2017, they had reached the benchmark of fifty thousand readers and by the end of August 2017, it crossed over to two lakhs. Contrary to popular opinions and their own expectations, lalluram.com took off very early. The success lies in understanding what the readers want and a constant endeavor to cover stories that matter.

With a readership of twenty-five lakh at present, people of Chhattisgarh love how the news is dependable and entertaining at its core.

Lalluram.com stands for all proud Chhattisgarhi people, learning about their land and enjoying life to the fullest.
