‘Guns are being brandished in the national capital, Rahul Gandhi and Arvind Kejriwal are supporting it.’
For a good half and hour or more @republic TV and their reporter @aishkapoor passed off the shooter as the ‘real face of anti-CAA’ protests.
“How much violence do we have to watch and how much inconvenience do people need to keep facing.”
@republic TV anchor portraying the shooter as an anti-CAA protester seeking attention.
"Jamia protestor uses gun"
@republic ran this for at least half an hour. Didn't see any correction or apology. Image
Two hours later, @republic crew had to leave the location of the incident because of an angry crowd.
After hours of misreporting and fanning that anger, Republic now plays victim.

Now playing balancing act by saying both sides in #CAAProtest are resorting to violence. Image
Arnab Goswami, managing director and editor-in-chief of Republic TV, is the President of News Broadcasters Federation (NBF) a "body of 78 news channels in 14 languages, representing broadcasters from 25 states".
As an editor, did you not deem it prudent to gather actual 'facts' before going on this misinformed monologue on live TV?
You filled an information vacuum with false narrative about the shooter’s motive and affiliation. No apologies issued.
Doubling down on the factual error/skewed reporting, Republic TV's political editor is now painting the shooter as a Delhi citizen, angry and frustrated with the anti-CAA protests.

Republic TV. Facts be damned.

“We corrected it within minutes,” says Arnab Goswami in defence of @republic’s dangerously skewed coverage of the Jamia shooting.
But I couldn’t spot any correction in the afternoon. They just stopped running those lines without acknowledging mistake. Did I miss something?
“There is no mal intent from our side” - Arnab on Republic’s apology over the Jamia shooting misreport.

Why @republic and Arnab’s ‘apology’ is a farce. @vsirnate explains in this thread.

An explosion near a Kabul school killed at least 30 people and many of the victims were female students.

Students in Kabul donate blood for those injured in the school blast (most victims were school going girls and those images are too graphic to post here).
“This war is now becoming the war of contractors, mercenaries and proxies.”

"MEA never sleeps." ?
EAM Jaishankar could have avoided getting into this.
Should have... in fact.
I hope @NZinIndia deleted the tweet because their SOS was addressed and not because they made someone look bad.
Noted, @NZinIndia.

Fauci says the US will try to help India deal with its record-breaking Covid surge. "It is a dire situation that we're trying to help in any way we can."

“We have a long standing commitment to India’s public health,” adds a White House rep.

Seems like there’s still some confusion about this. Covishield production not impacted by US exports restrictions. That’s for Covovax.
"..we will rapidly deploy additional support to the people of India and India's health care heroes." - US Secretary of State Antony Blinken.

18 Indian Army soldiers died in an ambush by an outlawed group 5 years ago. This group had received supplies and support from a neighbouring country, and at least some of its leaders are known to be sheltered in this same country.

Guess the country.

(1/n)
It’s China.
In June 2015, soldiers of 6 Dogra Regt died in an ambush in Manipur’s Chandel district.
Army’s SF responded by conducted raids on militant camps in Myanmar. The opening scene of Vicky Kaushal’s Uri depicts a cinematic version of that ops, but I digress.
(2/n)
The attack was claimed by United National Liberation Front of Western South East Asia (UNLFW), a group of nine militant groups led by NSCN-K and the Paresh Baruah's ULFA faction.

@Rezhasan covered this alliance in 2015, 2 month before the ambush. (3/n)

"Vajpayee’s statesmanship sustained an ecosystem in which everything 'anti-Indian' passed off as 'Jamhooriyat' (democracy)." - @ahmedalifayyaz
"New Delhi shut its eyes not only to the unending flow of funds from overseas, but also to Islamabad’s largesse of MBBS seats every year to each of the separatist leaders in Pakistan’s medical colleges." - @ahmedalifayyaz
"When the founder of the Congress party in J&K, Mohammad Shafi Qureshi, died during the Burhan Wani mayhem in 2016, his family failed to find a place for his burial. A tomb was arranged in a Delhi cemetery." - @ahmedalifayyaz
