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.
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. 10/

Hamdard (Rooh Afza maker) claimed that "each glass that you enjoy contributes to the nation building".
This claim is disputed. Let me tell you why!
1/4
To start with Hamdard is a WAQF property since 1948. The owners made some arrangement of keep the company & family running and the part pledged to the God.
The arrangements were made in the name of (a) Khandani Income and (b) Quomi Income
2/
After reserving 1/8 part (ultimately for muwwalis caretakers) of
Khandani Income is for personal (family) needs 1/4th and rest for community). Net net 75% as WAQF charity. In fact Hamdard has taken tax exemption on this Quomi income part.

They made Aurangzeb a 'secular ruler'.
They glorified Khilafat as 'unity'.
But they cleverly erased C. Sankaran Nair - the man who exposed the Truth of Moplah, the burning facts!
#KesariChapter2 #SankaranNair
1/6
A staunch nationalist lawyer, Nair never minced words. He said Congress’ Khilafat obsession led to the mass murder of Hindus in #MoplahMassacre. He documented the violence, the forced conversions.. and the r@pes.
And for that- he was CANCELLED by the Congress 'ecosystem'.
2/
While Congress tiptoed, Nair roared, “This wasn’t a peasant uprising - it was a bloodbath of Hindus!”.
He exposed how Khilafat turned into a cover for communal cleansing.
But speaking up for Hindus = unforgivable sin for Congress. So, they buried him.

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/
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/
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.
