This is not first time non-profit NPR and its Indian correspondent promoting anti-India sentiments. There is history of controversies over left-leaning media house, funded by George Soros & other like minded.

#TheHawkEyeThread
1/
NPR acknowledged that receiving funds from OSF is controversial, yet they found it 'worthy'. Incidentally the funds were received on same day NPR fired Sr. Political Analyst Juan Williams for making perceived anti-MusI¡m remark in an interview on questioning on 9/11.
2/
In 2019, NPR's Delhi producer Furkan Khan was made to resign after social media outrage over her extremely derogatory anti-Hinduism tweet (which she later deleted & apologised). Read that tweet yourself (P2)
3/
As per Pew Research, NPR does left biased reporting, though it claims to be unbiased. It mainly attributed govt & pro-left org funded.

NPR is also accused of anti-Israel & supporting Palestine teπor¡st. One of reporting watchdog CAMERA consider NPR as most biased media.
4/
Due to its left propoganda, worth noting, Trump admin proposed to cut all fundings to NPR, though it didn't go through. NPR considerably spent on 'lobbying' for political lobbying and have spent $8.2mn since 1998, revealed OpenSecrets investigation.
5/
Star of the day, Lauren Frayer - current correspondent of NPR for India, is obviously no exception to NPR's narrative propaganda. She is one of flag bearer who campaigned against BJP/Modi in general election 2019.
6/
All her Covid reporting continued to be heavily biased, even cherry picking researchers to malign India's image, with infamous funeral pyre picture, however missed to highlight the better side of crisis management.
7/
All of her articles will give glimpse of any typical left media houses. e.g. Frayer observed that Protesters that carried out 26/1 riots at Red Fort is "storm in capital" and "overshadowed traditional military parade". Check her other articles, just headlines are good enough!
8/
Now check how Frayer mocked the plight of victims of LoveJ¡had. Its simply a meet-propose-accused for her. She supposedly blind 100s fell for web-of-lies. Despite knowing that why govt are bringing anti conversion laws to its core.
9/
#LaurenFrayer is white synonym of Ayyubs & Thapars, who enables anti-India image to the world, right sitting in India. A pawn of Int'nal lobbies work overtime to sell preferred narrative because India is biggest threat for their shaking economical & geopolitical supremacy.

When there's no consensus on a fancy family dinner, everyone ends up with a "mixed-veg."

Is the WAQF Amendment Bill a political version of the same?🕌

Let's see in a blink if you got a piece of panner or carrot🥕!
🧵

Start with Hits (what has changed):
✅Non-Muslim representation in Waqf Boards adds an amount of parity

✅Mandatory Registration reduces arbitrary claims over land by enforcing strict docs of ownership.

2/
✅District Collector empowerment shifts a significant power from Waqf Boards to a govt body.

✅No 'Default' Waqf ownership of properties without legal verification.

Propaganda US journalist Raphael Satter OCI is cancelled for several violations.

Habitual offender Hanna Petersen writes Satter denied he ever conducted journalistic activity in India. Which is outright lie.

Wait, there is more to it, much deeper.

1/ Image

First of all, Satter lied in the court that he is not doing any journalism in India & have visited only for family purposes. Here are two such examples- note that Satter was among first one who broke Pegasus fake story which was never proven till date.

2/ Image
Second, such story was against Indian startup Appin Association where he is still facing defamation suits. In this story, he violated all journalistic standards by publishing someone else picture (knowingly) instead of targeted one because he wasn't able to get right picture.

FACT CHECK:
@IndianExpress published an article citing a 'fact check' for the fact which was never said!

Entire left cabal jumped on the news, in a very coordinated manner, misleading everyone.

Let's check it one by one.

1/ Image
To start with, it was clear to everyone that said $21mn funds for India were CANCELLED by DOGE. i.e. it was funnelled but halted before it could released or received by anyone.

So, the headline "did not go to" itself is blatantly wrong by all means.

2/ Image
This one line doesn't stop here but carries a hidden agenda and fake narrative crafting that "it was a big misunderstanding that USAID funds India to influence elections". Vicious!

This is mind-blowing!!

It looks like there is a big tussle going on between Fantasy Gaming and Opinion Trading (OT). There are links to the involvement of USAID, Ford Foundation etc in influencing policy makers against the OT.

Unmissable Thread🧵

This is a relatively new subject at large so understand the basics first.

Fantasy Gaming 🏏 : apps like Dream11, My11Circle etc. which let users create virtual teams (like IPL). If chosen players do well, you win real money!

2/
Opinion Trading 📊: This is something new & rising platform like Probo. Here, users predict outcomes of real-world events like elections, matches, stock etc. Right prediction = earn money. Its like a stock market for opinions.

The newly formed @DOGE cancelled $21M funding for NGO CEPPS for a program 'voter turnout in India'.

CEPPS website is defunct now.

Was it the first attempt at electoral interference in India by USAID? The answer is - NO.

IMPORTANT THREAD🧵

USAID program "Elections and Political Processes", to "Promote legitimate contestation for ideas and political power through democratic political processes that reflect the will of the people".

Gimmicks! The real agenda is influencing the elections.
2/
In 2013, USAID pledged half a million dollars for India under the same category.
Funding Agency - Deptt of State
Managing agency - USAID
Implementing Parter - Consortium for Elections and Political Process Strengthening (CEPPS).
