#Thread:🧵

AltNews in their article on The Wire's former 'consultant' Devesh Kumar - had borrowed already researched work & re-purposed it in their article, without due credits.

When questioned over email, they denied any plagiarism - which is mischievous on their end. On 30th Oct. '22, when The Wire had lodged a complaint against Devesh Kumar, by that evening itself I had published a thread containing more than 50+ tweets, along with evidences and more clues/leads.

By that time Devesh Kumar already had deleted his blog, Twitter account, etc. ImageImage
