Srinagar: A new report has criticized Indian media’s coverage of the situation in Jammu and Kashmir since August 2019, describing it as heavily biased and a threat to truthful reporting. The report accuses numerous media outlets of disseminating false narratives and fabricating stories to support the political stance of India’s ruling party and its affiliates.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the report specifically targets the alignment of these media outlets with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS). It claims that the coverage is designed to obscure human rights violations by Indian troops in the region and misrepresent the ongoing struggles of the Kashmiri people for self-determination. This manipulation of news is presented as part of a broader agenda to justify the Indian government’s policies under Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
The report also addresses the conduct of Indian journalists and TV anchors, who are accused of lacking journalistic integrity by echoing a government-scripted narrative. This has allegedly led to misinformation, increased tensions, and hostility towards the Kashmiri populace.
The document urges the international community to recognize and address the role of Indian media in propagating this bias, suggesting that it has significant implications for journalism and truth on a global scale.
