Why regional
Most of India reads the news in its own language.
English media reaches decision-makers in the metros. Customers, voters, patients, parents and dealers across states are reached first by Hindi and regional language newspapers, news sites and channels.
A story about a new plant in Gujarat, a hospital in Kerala or a dealership network in Uttar Pradesh lands harder in the newspaper people in that state actually read.
Regional distribution puts your announcement there, in the language and framing local editors use.

FAQ
Regional PR questions
What is regional press release distribution?
Regional press release distribution is the distribution of a press release to newspapers, news sites and media in Indian languages such as Bengali, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu and Marathi, so the announcement reaches readers in the language they read the news in.
Which languages does IPRD cover?
Indian PR Distribution (IPRD)® distributes in 11 Indian languages: Bengali, Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Marathi, Gujarati, Kannada, Malayalam, Punjabi, Odia and Assamese.
Do you translate the press release?
We write each language version natively from your approved English release or brief, rather than running a word-for-word translation, so it reads like local news.
Can one press release go out in several languages?
Yes. The same announcement can be distributed in several languages at once, with each version written for its own readers.
Should I choose regional or national distribution?
Choose regional when the story matters most to readers in particular states, and national when it matters to the whole country. Many announcements use both.
How long does regional distribution take?
Language versions are prepared after the English copy is approved, and distribution follows the same 24 to 48 hour turnaround as our national sponsored products once each version is approved.
