About Rostrum

Take the rostrum.

Rostrum is a community where young India speaks, writes, forecasts and debates what matters. We ask straight questions, give full answers, and leave the last word to you.

We’re building an independent forum for public discourse in India. It’s made with 18 to 30 year olds in mind and open to anyone curious enough to listen and join in.

What we expect of our work.

Clear

We explain what happened, name our sources and show what’s still uncertain.

Fair

We give people room to make their case and take different views seriously.

Inviting

You can start with a question, a forecast or an argument of your own.

Take the rostrum.

Read, write, and call what happens next.
