The media must be free and fair, uninfluenced by corporate or state interests. That's why you, the public, need to pay to keep news free.
ContributeThis week on NL Hafta, we discuss the Comptroller and Auditor General’s audit of Delhi’s power distribution companies. We then move on to Cobrapost’s Operation Black Rain & how the English television media chose to ignore it. We also discuss PM Modi’s UAE trip & the speech he delivered to the Indian diaspora. The team also discusses Tehelka being served a legal notice for listing Bal Thackeray as a terrorist in its cover and the police crackdown on FTII students. We close with a brief discussion about Mulayam Singh Yadav’s comments on gangrape and Rahul Gandhi’s visionary sarkar. We also dedicate a song to Rahul Gandhi.
