Dheeraj Mishra is a Principal Correspondent with the Business Bureau of The Indian Express. He plays a critical role in covering India's massive infrastructure sectors, providing in-depth reporting on the connectivity lifelines of the nation.

Expertise & Focus Areas: Mishraโ€™s journalism is focused on two of the country's most capital-intensive and public-facing ministries:

  • Ministry of Railways: Tracking the operations, safety, and development of India's vast railway network.

  • Ministry of Road Transport & Highways: Covering policy decisions, infrastructure projects, and highway development.
