Ekkatha (एक कथा) means "One Story" in Hindi. We believe every voice deserves to be heard, and every story matters. Founded in 2023, we've built a platform where India's 400 million+ digital youth can engage with news, share perspectives, and participate in meaningful conversations that shape our collective future.
We created Ekkatha because we saw a gap in the social media landscape: existing platforms were either too chaotic, too fragmented, or too focused on virality rather than substance. India's youth needed a digital space that values quality discourse, celebrates diverse viewpoints, and encourages thoughtful engagement with important topics.
Ekkatha exists to empower India's youth to share their authentic voices and perspectives on the issues that matter. We're building a platform where quality content rises to the top, where conversations lead to understanding, and where diverse viewpoints are celebrated rather than polarized.
We encourage genuine expression and real conversations, not performance or posturing.
We celebrate India's rich tapestry of languages, cultures, and perspectives.
We prioritize quality over virality, thoughtfulness over reactions.
We build for all of India, not just for metros or English speakers.
Ekkatha is a next-generation social platform that combines the best elements of microblogging, news aggregation, and expressive storytelling. Our platform is designed to facilitate meaningful engagement with current events, ideas, and shared experiences.
