In the current face-off, the Chinese appear to have intruded into the disputed areaโ โ in some instances right up to their claim line โ โ and set up semi-permanent structures.
From @elmihiro's piece ๐๐พ
On Times Now, RSS is talking about the Delhi riots. Some expose about Tahir Hussain. I am sure it's not worth your time. #NLprimetime
On the case of Ankit Sharma's murder, here's a detailed report you should read instead. #NLprimetime

Honestly don't know how anchors like RSS can continue to command primetime space but then it's Times Now.
Here's his intervention on Nepal from last week ๐ #NLprimetime
The 8 pm news on News Nation and TV 9 should be renamed Kim Ke Kisse. Both these channels are OBSESSED with the dear leader.
Here News Nation is talking about some lady killer. #NLprimetime
Heh. Republic talking about the most powerful visuals from #GeorgeFloyd protests.
Below the ticker says #RiotPlotExposed using which the channel will tarnish anti-CAA/NRC protestors at Shaheen Bagh. #NLprimetime.
Indian pro-establishment news channels are truly the pits. They aren't just pro-establishment but anti-people.
Republic et al are again smearing protestors at #ShaheenBagh tonight. I switched to Fox News & it almost felt like I was watching NDTV. #NLprimetime
Experts ๐
Ravish Kumar talking about protests in the US and how despite the crackdown, people retain the right to free speech. Unlike in India. Eg, student activists arrests. #NLprimetime
Ok, ending the primetime with this excellent piece from @ShubhangaP โ Watching Indian news in Kathmandu.
Among other things, the piece explains how Indian TV news has played a role in the decay of Indiaโs soft power in the region.
