Anil Yadav, a former journalist with News Nation in Lucknow, says the TV news channel has standing instructions for reporters not to say a critical word about BJP governments, prime minister Narendra Modi, Uttar Pradesh chief minister Yogi Adityanath, or any other BJP leader.
In a video published to social media not long after he reportedly resigned from News Nation, which he had joined in 2012, Yadav says, "The situation for the last five years has been very frightening. I feel ashamed calling myself a journalist. I am a servant.”
