Career
Lankesh Patrike
Lankesh Patrike is an Indian vernacular weekly published in Kannada language from Bengaluru, Karnataka. The weekly newspaper was started by his father, P.Lankesh, in 1980—along the lines of Harijan, a weekly journal published by Mahatma Gandhi. The weekly remains to this day, true to its founding principles, having never published a single advertisement nor having generated any advertisement revenue, surviving on subscription from its readers alone. After working with All-rounder, Indrajit joined Lankesh Patrike as a sub-editor sometime in 1992–93. He now serves as the publisher and managing editor of the weekly newspaper.
