@nsitharaman

Is the #MVA government in Maharashtra replaying #IndiraGandhi’s Emergency? Where are self-appointed guardians of #FoE in this #ArnabGoswami episode, which goes above & beyond ideological/political differences with a fellow journalist? No media ‘guilds’/Associations/Unions today?

The ‘LeftLib’ brotherhood, which spawns itself in media outlets abroad is quick to comment on the @BJP4India central govt + @PMOIndia. How much longer will they ignore worse attacks on #FoE by provincial governments run by @INCIndia & their allies?
@WSJ @nytimes @FinancialTimes

Despite over a decade of vile abuse, which also stooped to cheap & personal, against @narendramodi from some sections of media, has he or the @BJP4India done anything remotely comparable? Shame on @INCIndia.

A lot of you must have been wondering why the 'Lυtyens' ecosystem hαtes Arnab Gοswami & #RepublicTV so much ? What have they done to warrant such hαte ? In this #Thread I will try to answer this from top level info gathered from my sources in the ecοsystem. Let's begin 👍🏼

Lυtyens Ecοsystem is like a Hydrα. It has many heαds but the most visible ones are 2 : Mediα & Pοlitics. Both help in giving visibility & credibility to the third face - fαke αctivism. Since 2014 there's been a complete οnslaught on these 2 visible faces of the ecοsystem.

Hence you will find the third face being οver active to save the 2 οther unmαsked faces by doing a lot of fαke αgitations in recent times.

The people in this ecοsystem don't like οutsiders. They have a cοsy club in which only 'peοple like them' are allοwed.

18 May 2015, most beautiful day of my life, as I was "sharing 3hr flight seat with my inspiration- #ArnabGoswami".

Today after 5 years, I'm ashamed of myself to have you as my inspiration!

#AgentofBJP
#ShahSponsoredRepublicTV
#RepublicTV #TRPSCAM #TRPFraud #Republic

Just to clear the air- By today I mean series of events, including todays! Starting from "Suspicious Establishment of Republic TV"

There's a huge difference b/w "Nationalism" & "Polarisation", which is being used interchangeably these days. While Arnab is doing the latter one!

2 mins of silence for those abusing me and still have faith in Arnab!

God bless you all!

You've been turned narcissist and megalomaniac, thanks to these govt. sponsored channels!

Don't worry "truth" has an immense power, you'll realise it someday!

I am finally putting out on social media. I have quit #RepublicTV for ethical reasons. I am still under notice period but I just can't resist today to throw light upon the aggressive agenda being run by #RepublicTV to vilify #RheaChakraborty . High time I speak out!

I was taught #journalism to unearth truth. In #shushant case, I was asked to take out details of everything but not truth. As I investigated, sources close to both families agreed #Sushant was suffering from depression. Ofcourse it didn't suit #Republic agenda.

I was asked to investigate on financial angle in the case, the account details of #Rhea father was accessed, which didn't get remotely linked to the agenda of siphoning of #sushant money for their two flats. Ofcourse, this also didn't suit the agenda!

None have anything similar 😂😝🤣

Most important is who gives insider information??🤔🙄
Did #CBI or #MumbaiPolice or even the #govt ever thought??

News is always out b4 the actual announcement 😲

Does the investigation agency or the govt passes tips to the news channels??
Should it happen?
What is the secrecy with the investigation team??
How come the chat of #Drugs came out?? Neither #RheaChakroborty or any group members will release this chat... Means the agency did??

Read Bombay HC order in #ArnabGoswami case. Some thoughts :

1. With respect to FIR on report on Palghar lynching, I tend to agree with reasoning that it may not strictly come under offence of communal incitement, as it was primarily against Congress.

livelaw.in/top-stories/bo…

2. But with respect to FIR on report on migrants gathering in Bandra, I have some disagreements. As per the transcript of the debate recorded in the order, Goswami linked the gathering to a Masjid at Bandra and asked why there was a "pattern" of crowds gathering near mosques.

3. Remember, this was happening in the middle of a vile communal campaign following Tablighi Jamaat issue. Clearly, Goswami was tapping into such communal sentiments. He uses dog whistle codes of 'traitors' 'anti nationals'.
