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/

SHOCKING: #MissionariesOfCharity funded through a Panama based firm named in Pandora Papers leaks! Who is the actual donor?
MoC's gigantic foreign funding:
250+ bank a/c
₹1099Cr in 15yrs,
₹426Cr in 5yrs
₹75Cr this FY, from 347 individual & 59 inst donors. #TheHawkEyeThread 1/
While analyzing this freaking 76pg high-magnitude FCRA report, I found something catchy. Out of 75Cr (FY20-21), MoC, India has received 44Cr from MoC, USA. Usually, u may see names of other NGO/corporate as donors. However, 2nd highest donor (13.5Cr) here is Kriti Finance SA, 2/
which is a Panama-based asset mgmt firm. In the last 4yrs , either this firm (Kriti Fin) or something named 'Simi Foundation' (having same c/o address) has routed 32Cr to MoC. By all means, this is very unusual to receive funds directly from a Tax heaven country's finance firm 3/

Do you know that till 2015 daily electricity supply was just 9hrs a day & 25% Unelectrified household in UP which has been heartland of Indian politics!
Now its been improved to 16hrs (80% ⬆️) by 2020 under Yogi govt aggressive plan for electrification of UP with 100% coverage.
Corrupted to the core Samajwadi Party deprived UP of development by indulging in Saifai & Mafia culture. Listen to Akhilesh Yadav for 5 min (any clip), he always sounds unserious, clueless, traditional arrogant politicians who think they are "born to rule".
How many govt have you seen living up to their promises? Check these headlines in 2017.
And status in 2021: due to the increase in max supply,
18hrs in rural areas,
21.5hrs in tehsil
24hrs in district
24hrs in industries. 3/
There are lots of emotion outburst on TL, ranging from disappointment to backlashe PM Modi & govt for repealing farm laws. That's nonetheless affirm the expectation from the same govt.
The apprehension are obvious for setting the wrong precedence about other decisive move like Article 370/35A, CAA and so kneeling down to violent street veto. TV debate penalist to prominent pro-govt handlers are critical about deficiency of the move & also it won't help a bit

to score in state elections too. All opinions are important & must be respected.
Now let's take a pause and be reminded of the fact that since day-1 the Modi regime has faced unprecedented challenges, internally and externally, which no other regime has ever.
