After the NewsClick case was front-page news across major English newspapers yesterday, media houses kept the momentum going with editorials slamming the government.
The news portal’s founder Prabir Purkayastha and HR head Amit Chakravarty were arrested on October 3 in a UAPA case filed against NewsClick and sent to seven days in police custody. The Delhi police also searched the homes of 46 journalists and others who were connected to the news portal, and seized mobile phones and other devices.
