But if your opinion polarises and provocates only one block consistently over 30 yrs period then you need to think and rethink; sadly stuff that u find fault with today wasn’t enough to cause an outrage in you during 2004-14 period. Enough material exists to prove ur biases sir!
While I appreciate your willingness @ShekharGupta to engage; but I am also mindful of the fact that I can quotes 100s of instances of ur opinion being full of biases;sharing 4 stories over 35 yrs is good; but don’t forget at print,u did 35 stories over 4 days during covid times!
And @ShekharGupta sir, u allowed factually incorrect stories by ur reporters to pass your editorial desk/ stories like that of Agra Jain boy, OpEds by Nitin Pai calling Covaxin as @narendramodi ‘s Jumla of Aatmnirbhar bharat etc etc/ u didn’t apologise for that error of judgement
And last but not the least @ShekharGupta Ji, to take refuge for deficient journalism by repositioning it as editorial opinion is continuance of your editorial double standards- that Gujarat foetus being taken out story has been proven to be wrong -u never apologised-so for coup!

Much awaited @ShekharGupta has spoken on phenomena called #TheKashmirFiles. I was waiting 4 him as he is amongst a few journalists of that era, still active on daily basis. Others make guest appearances but SG does what he always did best from 2K onwards- agenda journalism-Thread
Here is how his piece “wrongly” titled National Interest looks today!

Wonder who reduced Kashmiri Hindu tragedy to one of suppression & shifting of goal posts for so long, @ShekharGupta and what moral high ground u have, in the process, after being part of suppression brigade!
Just note how cleverly @ShekharGupta has reduced the debate generated by #TheKashmirFiles to one of exodus and boxed it in the period from November 1989 onwards….why November 89? Because that was the month when reigns of Delhi transferred from Congress to National Front!

The kabadiwala has stopped asking for plastic “kabaad” now; all they do is come and take newspapers, used papers/magazines & reason is:

Painted in green used to be a cover of a decorated light; turned upside down, filled with manure and soil and it is not part of the garden!
Bathroom stool turned upside down, painted with geroo and it is used to grow guldavri
None of the paint containers leave our boundary wall; once inside, they find their way to the garden after being emptied on to the walls!

Well @Areebuddin14 was the petitioner, he was the reporter for @barandbench and proceedings from HC were also reported by him only. Can this platform’s reporting be trusted or should they be trusted? Image
And @barandbench blocked me Image

Dear @srinivasiyc true, it is not govt’s job to produce movies; and #TheKashmirFiles has been produced by @vivekagnihotri and not anyone connected to @narendramodi Govt. I wish u had known what @RahulGandhi ‘s dadi did with Gandhi in 1980- read on

independent.co.uk/news/obituarie…
Dear @srinivasiyc let me take u back to the 1980; Richard Attenborough was looking to produce Gandhi; and guess what he found Rani Dube - who in turn found Indira Gandhi- @RahulGandhi ‘s grandmom and guess what she instantly gave away $ 10 million to Dube independent.co.uk/news/obituarie…
I leave it to anyone’s best judgement that when funding of $10 million for Gandhi was given to Attenborough by Indian Govt ‘s NFDC - why was NFDC not shown as producer and the honour was given to Rani Dube? What was quid pro quo @srinivasiyc ?

Yesterday @vijaygajera wrote a thread on Sonia Gandhi and her activism . Continuing with issue raised by Vijay, lets expand on the info shared by Vijay & what it tells us about the politics of Sonia Gandhi & the subservient attitude of media vis-a-vis her!
It was on Nov6 of 2012 when @vijayvaani maam's article titled "Sonia Gandhi on Kashmir secession body" was published by @indiabtl detailing her involvement with the Forum of Democratic Leaders in the Asia-Pacific (FDL-AP) - weblink nancho.net/fdlap/
ibtl.in/column/1317/so…
The said article by @vijayvaani maam claimed that FDL-AP is funded by Soros Foundation, Kim Dae-Jung Peace Foundation, Olof Palme International Center, and Naumann Foundation. It further claimed that the Secretariat of the org was in Seoul & their India office was set up in Sep95

Two Congress experiments of mid 80s were similar and one of them led to genocide and ethnic cleansing of Hindus and reason was that one state was Hindu minority.

Yes, talking of N Bhaskar Rao & GM Shah; Andhra had NTR and JK had Abdullahs & Muftis who help in ethnic cleansing!
Young population need to read about how Congress Govt at the centre, removed elected govts in both Andhra and JK and replaced it with their puppets. Thankfully Andhra recovered but JK cudnt as Abdullah- the separatist in a closet- was at the helm of affairs & next hope was Mufti!
Kashmiri politicians were used to play Ukraine on Delhi- in Srinagar they used to sing songs of separatism while their tunes used to change in Delhi. Cong was happy with their share of 6 seats and support and gave freedom to Muftis and Abdullahs
