Journalism in India is under assault https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2024/05/03/india-journalists-under-attack/ May 3, 2024
.. I looked at the Committee to Protect Journalists database, the number of journalists killed in connection with their work in India. In the decade this government has been in power, 19 have been killed. And in the previous decade, before this government came in, it was 10, which was bad enough. ..
And even worse, India figures in the Global Impunity Index. Journalists are killed in connection with their work — targeted and murdered. Those who cover corruption, crime, politics, human rights. And there is impunity for the killers. The killers are not arrested in several cases, or when they are arrested, they are let out on bail and the case is not resolved. So we have been a founding and permanent member of this club of shame.
...: I don’t think it’s irreversible. It’s deep damage, no question about it, because it’s also in educational institutions and the judiciary. There are judges who make no secret of their affiliation with the BJP or indeed the RSS [a right-wing paramilitary group of Hindu nationalists]. So it’s deep damage. But irreversible? No. I think things change quickly. Realities on the ground quickly change. So all this gives me hope.

गुजरात दंगे का झलक 2024 में भी दिखाई दे रहा? फस गए मोदी ?
https://scroll.in/article/658119/film-maker-releases-a-dozen-clips-of-controversial-modi-speeches-made-just-after-gujarat-riots Film-maker releases a dozen clips of controversial Modi speeches made just after Gujarat riots.. Rakesh Sharma aims to show how Modi's image is being whitewashed. Sumana Ramanan Mar 10, 2014
Many of these short films contain speeches that Modi delivered after the carnage, including during his Gaurav Yatra and campaigning for the state election several months after the 2002 anti-Muslim pogrom. Many of these speeches are no longer available online, Sharma said.
Sharma will also release six more clips this week and six the next week, containing more speeches as well as portions of his new film on Gujarat in the decade after the carnage. The short films are all less than 15 minutes long. Click here http://www.youtube.com/user/rakeshfilms?feature=watch , to watch them.
सामान्य मद्रेसा से निकले हुए किसी बच्चे
ने नहीं कहा है ये मुसलमान परिवार ने कहा
है नारा दिया है वोट जिहाद करो इंडी
गठबंधन का साफ कहना है कि सारे मुसलमानों
को एकजुट होकर वोट देना चाहिए इंडी गठबंधन
ने लोकतंत्र के उत्सव में वोट जिहाद की
बात करके लोकतंत्र का भी अपमान किया है
संविधान का भी अपमान किया है अब दोस्तों
इसमें चौंकिए मत क्योंकि साहब की हिस्ट्री
ही कुछ ऐसी रही पूर्व गुजरात सीएम शंकर
सिंह बघेला ने एक इंटरव्यू में न्यूज ल्री
को देते हुए एक इंटरव्यू में कहा था कि
गोधरा कांड और 2002 गुजरात दंगे अगर नहीं
हुए होते तो बीजेपी गुजरात में सत्ता में
नहीं आता एक गुजरात में अगर गोधरा मा
डब्बा जलाया नहीं गया होता और गुजरात में
रायट्स नहीं होते राज धर्म उस समय निभाया
होता तो बीजे को आने का सवाल ही पैदा नहीं
होता था 2002 में ऐसा कौन सा चमत्कार हुआ
सिवा हिंदू मुसलमान लोगों ने वोट दिए गई
ना राइटल स्टेट है और भाषण ऐसा होता था हम
है तो आपकी बच्ची है घर आप लड़के घर वापस
आते हैं अगर हम नहीं होंगे तो मुसलमान लोग
आपके बच्चों को उठा ले जाएंगे यह भाषण
होता है क्या एक्शन का रिएक्शन होता है
मतलब कि जब गुजरा का डब्बा जलाया गया तो
फिर हिंदू लोग मियाओ को मारेंगे यह कोई
कोई रीत होती है भाषण नेताओं की रक्षक
भक्षक बनेंगे क्या गुजरात में रक्षक भक्षक
बने दोस्तों 2002 जब गोधरा कांड हुआ था तो
मोदी जी पर यह आरोप लगा था आईपीएस अधिकारी
संजीव भट्ट ने यह बयान दिया था कि गुजरात
दंगे में मोदी की भूमिका है उन्होंने ही
गुजरात के बड़े-बड़े ऑफिसर्स को अपने आवाज
पर देर रात को बुलाया था और कहा था कि लेट
https://thewire.in/tech/one-step-forwards-two-steps-back-whatsapps-use-in-indian-elections
India has an estimated 760 million ‘active’ internet users[2], accessing the internet more than once a month. 400 million of those are active on WhatsApp – the messaging platform’s largest user base.[3] Several million others use alternative platforms like Facebook Messenger, Telegram and Signal. According to a study by the Reuters Institute, WhatsApp is the second largest, and Telegram is the fifth largest online platform for Indians to access news.[4] Flying under the radar of election authorities, media regulators and policymakers, these messaging platforms have now become a core feature of electoral communications and media in India.
Given its reach and popularity of use, it’s no surprise that political parties, candidates, campaign management firms and the plethora of other actors involved in understanding and winning over the Indian electorate have adapted their strategies to utilise WhatsApp’s potential for elections. Unsurprisingly, this has led to several familiar concerns around electoral media now being reflected in the use of messaging platforms – disinformation and hate speech are rampant, while the grey-market of personal information fuels targeted propaganda.
