Over four months after she was “forced to leave India”, French journalist Vanessa Dougnac has written a detailed account of how she was “banned from practicing my profession as a journalist” in a cover story for French magazine La Croix L’Hebdo.
Dougnac, who had lived in India for 23 years and is married to an Indian citizen, was first denied permission to work as a journalist in India in September 2022. Newslaundry had reported in depth on her exit from India amid OCI proceedings.
