IIJNM is founded by the BS&G Foundation, a non-profit Trust dedicated to promoting democratic values and institutions in India. The BS&G Foundation is a partnership between the Adi Chunchanagiri Maha Samsthana Trust and The George Foundation. The former also runs several other educational institutions in medicine and engineering, while the latter is engaged in humanitarian projects and environmental issues (see www.tgfworld.org and www.shantibhavanonline.org). As an independent institution not affiliated with or run by any one newspaper or media organization, we are able to maintain wider association within the industry.


January 2001 marked the opening of the institute. The main motivating factor behind the creation of this journalism college is the overwhelming need to improve the quality of journalism and elevate its stature in order to attract committed individuals to the profession in India.
