  1. Delhi High Court issues fresh notice to BBC over defamatory documentary on Modi

    The Delhi High Court on Monday issued fresh notice to the British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) on a plea by an NGO seeking damages, claiming its documentary "India: The Modi Question" casts a slur on the country's reputation and makes false and defamatory imputations against Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Indian judiciary.

  2. > The government [of India] instructed YouTube and Twitter to delete all links and uploads. Those sterling defenders of free speech hurried to comply. Some of my Muslim friends were baffled. “Why does he want to ban it? The Gujarat massacre has always helped him. And we’re in an election year.”

  3. Watching #TheModiQuestion - feeling very grateful that #BBC, Indian journalists and courageous eyewitnesses have brought to light this nationalist violence against the Muslim minority. There have been BJP reprisals. In Britain there are attempts to import the bigotry, so we must learn, be careful, be sensitive. We certainly have a jihadi problem and it certainly isn't a Muslim problem. We certainly have a Hindu nationalism problem and it certainly isn't a Hindu problem.

  4. The thin skin of the #NaMo government & its abuse of authoritarian power is really…something 🤦🏽‍♂️:

    “BBC Offices In India Raided By Tax Officials Amid Modi Documentary Fallout”, The Guardian (theguardian.com/world/2023/feb).

  5. The police raids in #India against offices of the #BBC clearly serve to intimidate #media critical of PM #Modi.
    These wannabe-authoritarian antics should absolutely be condemned by everyone cherishing #mediafreedom.

    India threatens to go down a very dark path under the leadership of Modi and the #BJP. #TheModiQuestion

  6. I just read an article in the Feb 10th issue of "The Week" that says Elon Musk is blocking this BBC Investigation report from Twitter users in India. Interesting.

  7. I guess since #Modi is banning the BBC Documentary The Modi Question in India, I'll try to watch it. I've known he's an illiberal leader who probably owes his election to social media. #TheModiQuestion #BBC

  8. Modi blocking the BBC documentary for slander should not be allowed in a democracy. What is next? Banning news media that is not favorable?
