Reporters Without Orders Ep 308: Saffronised RWAs, land exploits in Ayodhya

This week, host Sumedha Mittal is joined by Newslaundry’s Tanishka Sodhi and The Caravan’s Sagar.

Tanishka reported on the push for Ram temple consecration’s celebrations by resident welfare associations in Delhi. She talks about the discriminatory policies practiced by many RWAs, resulting in the isolation of non-Hindus.  

Sagar talks about his reports on the Ram emple trust in Ayodhya. He delves into the “undeclared” collusion between Shri Ram Janmbhoomi Teerth Kshetra's trust and the government, and says the trust is involved in murky land deals.
