NewYork — In a notable development in the global media landscape, Raju Lama, President of the SAARC Journalist Forum and Editor-in-Chief of Times Asian, has been appointed as the US Affairs Editor of Civil Society News Network (CSNN).

The appointment is seen as a significant step toward strengthening international journalistic collaboration and expanding global coverage of United States affairs. In his new role, Lama will oversee reporting and analysis related to U.S. politics, public policy, and press freedom.

Widely recognized for his leadership in regional journalism and cross-border media initiatives, Lama has contributed analytical pieces on issues such as democratic accountability and media freedom, some of which have already been featured on CSNN.
Media experts believe that Lama’s appointment will help broaden CSNN’s editorial reach while fostering stronger media linkages between South Asia and the United States. The move also reflects the growing global recognition of South Asian journalists in influential international media roles.

The development is expected to enhance in-depth reporting and provide a more diverse global perspective on key democratic and policy issues.
