“Media, please respect my privacy,” reads a note outside the residence of Sachin Meena and Seema Haider as the couple have now refused to speak to the media in Rabupura village of Greater Noida.
Over the last few days, the couple’s love story has triggered an unending meme fest and a circus of television crews and social media influencers around their house. Sachin’s family and villagers in Rabupura had earlier told Newslaundry that media crews repeatedly misbehaved in the area. Many media professionals did not respect the family’s demand to limit interviews to five minutes, and consistent refusals to follow appointment timings often resulted in verbal duels.
