Former Desai & Diwanji (D&D) Delhi partner Raghav Mathur has gone in-house with Dubai-based super speciality hospital NMC Healthcare in its corporate M&A legal team.

Promoted to salaried partner in January 2013, Mathur joined D&D in 2009 from Irish firm Arthur Cox.

He has over 13 years of experience as a lawyer, according to his Linkedin profile.

He did not respond to messages seeking comment since last week.

Other than Dubai, NMC is also present in Abu Dhabi where it is the largest private sector healthcare provider, according to its website.

KIAN PLEASE BE RESPONSIBLE IN YOUR REPORTING.

IF THE CANDIDATE HAS DECLINED TO COMMENT THEN HOW ARE YOU SURE THAT SUCH A MOVE HAS TAKEN PLACE.

Lol, that was amusing Mr Trump. Generally, people declining to comment should not stop someone from reporting something.

Before commenting, Google may have also helped: his new position is reflected on Linked-in: https://www.linkedin.com/in/raghav-mathur-4759967/

Well there could be multiple reasons for that change on Linkedin. Not necessarily that someone has left only.

So do you report job changes solely based on linkedin updates or you make other checks also.

Ps. People have to start blocking you on linkedIn if that is the only source you base your entire story upon

Are you implying that you have information that he has not moved to Dubai then? I would be happy to update the article, if required.

Desai & Diwanji has not responded to any of our emails or messages seeking comments for at least a while now (perhaps after a few negative partner departure stories at the firm, I'm not entirely sure).

To Mr Mathur I've sent several messages since last week asking him for comment. If his update to his Linked-in profile is not accurate or he did not want us to run a story, then I am puzzled as to why he wouldn't take the opportunity to set the record straight...

Que sera, sera... :)

So Kianz are you saying that Raghav is guilty just by the very fact that he is silent.

I have nothing against investigative journalism but if the subject of your investigation is silent, then atleast you should caveat the report accordingly.

Adding an update that says

" That such movement report is based solely on the fact that Raghav has changed his linkedin page and the fact has not been verified either by Raghav nor his firm"

Atleast this will give context that such a change "may" or "may" not be true

I mean job movements are very personal and while yes, journalists can use linkedIn as a source. But then shouldnt you caveat your story to state that your story is solely based on the linkedIn update and no other source, including the person in question, his firm or others have confirmed.

Your story suggests that this is a sure shot move, which could be misleading

While I condemn disgusted's language and connotations of calling someone a nazi. Which has deeper implications than what disgusted even understands . I do support the sentiment on publishing news only based on linkedIn changes without specific confirmation from the person involved.

Desai & Diwanji is asinking ship, which the so called Partners have realised. Delhi office nearing closure, after exit of most of the Partners, Amit Khansahib was the first one to leave the firm with his clients, followed by Sumes Dewan. Desai & Diwanji never made a presence in Delhi, is now close to its Delhi office being shut down

Vishang Desai the Managing partner is responsible for everyone leaving Desai & Diwanji, he runs the firm like a sole proprietorship, where there is no room for anyone else, the firm would be history soon, as the other old school Mumbai Firms which never adapted themselves to the changing times

fox-only in a legal document is sign-off from all named parties required.
in journalism one needs to be agile and as long as reasonable efforts made to verify it is fine. stop hating and stop riding rabbits.
