'''Avinash Kaur Sarin''' is an Indian News Anchor, former Broadcast journalist, documentary director and television personality. She presented news as one of the primary news anchors of "[[Doordarshan]]", the National News Network of India; the sole news channel in India during the 1970s, 1980s, and 1990s. She later went on to direct several documentaries for the network on Asian culture. She is a member of the official panel of directors and producers at Doordarshan.

Sarin was born into a Sikh family to a father who was a professor in music. She received double bachelor's degrees in Physics and Education from the [[University of Delhi]].

She went on to become one of India's most popular news anchors of the 1980s and 1990s.<ref>{{cite web | author=Manjit Sarin | url=http://www.hungamahub.com/video/XiwWccaispg/avinash-kaur-sarin-iconic-newscaster-on-indian-television-history.html | title=Avinash Kaur Sarin, Iconic Newscaster on Indian Television History | website=Hungama Hub | date= | accessdate=10 September 2016 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160818151629/http://www.hungamahub.com/video/XiwWccaispg/avinash-kaur-sarin-iconic-newscaster-on-indian-television-history.html | archive-date=18 August 2016 | url-status=dead }}</ref>
