New York Times has declared that the Press Freedom in #India is on a declining spree. But the analysis isn’t theirs, but an Op-ed written by journalist & activist, Anuradha Bhasin Jamwal, Executive Editor of The Kashmir Times.

A Thread:
Ms. Bhasin has been a vocal critic of the Indian establishment for a while. She’s one of the ‘Brown Sepoys’ to set global anti-India discourse on #Kashmir . But she has her reasons: reasons that make her qualify as a ‘Brown Sepoy’.

(2/9) Anuradha Bhasin
Anuradha Bhasin is the daughter of late journalist Ved Bhasin, founder of the newspaper ‘The Kashmir Times’. Anuradha was living illegally in the house, the possession of which remained with her father from 1990s till his death in 2015.

(3/9)
Ved Bhasin was a staunch supporter of the #ISI operations on #Kashmir and supported the idea of Kashmir’s separation from India. In fact, he was a close friend of ISI mole Ghulam Nabi Fai in the US. Fai even wrote a piece after the demise of Ved Bhasin!

(4/9)
Ved Bhasin, along with Anuradha Bhasin, Ejaz Ul Haq (ex-Federal Minister of Pak), Prof. Angana Chatterji, and Gautam Navlakha, was one of the frequent attendees of ISI-sponsored conferences organized by Fai & his Kashmir American Council (KAC).

(5/9)
Following her father’s footsteps, Ms Bhasin too been supportive of ISI-operations by Fai. In an article, Anuradha firmly absolved Fai receiving money from the #ISI for carrying out anti-India pursuit on Kashmir in the US and even supported ISI-sponsored anti-India events.

(6/9)
But eventually, Fai gave up and pled guilty of defrauding the US by concealing the transfer of millions of dollars from the ISI and using them for anti-India operations. Fai was jailed for two years for his illegal lobbying efforts on #Kashmir.

(7/9)
Bhasin’s support for Fai still continued. In 2015, she was invited as a speaker at the 12th International Kashmir Conference in NY, where Fai was presented as speaker alongside Polis Project co-founder Suchitra Vijayan. But her paper was presented at the event.

(8/9)
Now with all the information on the plate, here’s a question for #NYTimes : were these facts not required to be looked into before taking her word for it and making a declaration waiting to come from a credible source?

(9/9)

Every White Expert that craps on India is always associated with Islamist fronts. Always.

Next in list is Dean Accardi. A mouthpiece of Muslim Brotherhood.

A thread:
Dean Accardi is a Professor of History at the Connecticut College USA, and a self-proclaimed Kashmir expert. This foreign expert has recently dismissed the history of a revered language altogether! But who gives him the backing to school another country on its history?

(2/n)
It’s the masters he has been serving as a pawn for assisting in their anti-India activities- The Muslim Brotherhood, JeI, & ISI fronts, 3 stakeholders of the Pak propaganda of Kashmir. All running Boycott campaign against India
Just a casual reminder!

NewsLaundry gave clean chit to #MukhtarBaba against the intelligence agencies of India. It found no evidence of terror & radical Islamist link of Mukhtar Baba.

Ayush Tiwari (@sighyush) could’ve saved a lot of sweat by doing some basic Google.

Let’s help them.

A Thread:
Fact: Mukhtar Baba lives in Ankara, has strong links with Pakistan & partakes in their conspiracy against India.

Exhibit A:

Mukhtar founded Kashmir Media PR/ Events, which later became The Kashmir Press where he is Consultant Head. And Kashmir Press is run from Pakistan.

(2/n)
Exhibit B:

Mukhtar has been in cahoots with #ISI stooge Muzzammil Ayyub Thakur, who was exposed by the Disinfo Lab in 2021 for operating on the Kashmir theatre against India. Both attended a webinar on Kashmir in July 2022 together.

A full-page ad on Wall Street Journal (WSJ) targeting SC judges and senior govt official has garnered attention. Suddenly what happened that such a prominent portal targeted India & propagate how #India is not a business-friendly country?

𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝:
The money of the #ad was paid by a Virginia-based ‘Frontiers of Freedom’ which is run by former Republican member George Landrith who filed a Global Magnitsky Act Petition to U.S. Govt against the top Indian govt officials on August 8, 2022.

(2/n)
Between the Magnitsky Act petition & the WSJ front page ad, Landrith initiated #IndiasMagnitsky11 tag on September 22, to target the 11 high-ranking Indian officials, & seek sanctions against them in the US.
