Sunil Rajguru's words simplified complexity, his guidance shaped lives, and his quiet strength left an enduring mark on Indian journalism.

A voice of clarity, a life of quiet courage

There are some people who become institutions within their own lifetime, not through grand gestures or loud proclamations, but through the quiet constancy of their presence. Sunil Rajguru was one such figure.

For colleagues, readers, and the many lives he touched, he was not merely an editor; he was an interpreter of complexity, a custodian of clarity, and above all, a companion on the journey of understanding a world that changes faster than words can capture.

On 1 September 2025, that steady voice was stilled. Sunil passed away at 14:30 IST, after a determined yearlong struggle with cancer, leaving behind an irreplaceable void in the world of Indian technology journalism.

A STORYTELLER WITH UNCOMMON COURAGE

What made Sunil singular was not simply his professional stature, but the extraordinary dignity with which he lived his final chapter. Even as his body fought a relentless illness, he refused to yield to despair. He worked on, breaking only for treatment, joining meetings with the same calm energy and conviction as if nothing in his world had changed.
