Our Purpose
BastarBook (Bastarbook.com) is a regional digital news platform committed to sharing stories from the heart of Bastar and the deeper regions of Chhattisgarh. Our aim is to highlight local narratives that are often missing from everyday news coverage, helping people stay informed about the realities of these communities.
What We Do
We travel to remote areas and focus on field-based storytelling. Each report is shaped by first-hand observation and meaningful conversations with the people who live the stories. From culture and heritage to daily challenges and social shifts, we bring depth and context to every article.
Our Values
Honesty: We value accurate and clear reporting
Dedication: We go the extra mile to cover stories from remote regions
Clarity: We present information in a simple and accessible way
Connection: We aim to connect people across regions through local perspectives
Our Role in Indian Media
Though BastarBook began with a local focus, our stories contribute to a larger understanding of India’s diverse landscape. We share voices and experiences that are relevant not just to Bastar or Chhattisgarh but to anyone who values authentic storytelling.
Run by Gaurav Shrivastava, BastarBook is more than a news platform. It is a personal commitment to telling stories that matter, documenting lives that inspire, and building awareness through genuine reporting from the ground.
