WATCH: Congratulations to Bhupinder Hundal on his new role as the News Director of and Station Manager at Global BC "Back in the 90s, I don't think there were many dastar-dhari [turban wearing] sikhs entering into the mainstream media... "I still pinch myself to think that I am now responsible for a station that is so revered in BC, that has such a long legacy and is celebrating 60 years. To think that I have the opportunity to lead such an organisation is humbling really."

He shares with Darpan's social media host Ish Sharma his broadcast journey of 15 years, what does diversity means with him being in the Director chair as a Punjabi Sikh man, and what to expect in termsof storytelling in the field of journalism in the future.
