Photojournalists associated with the New Indian Express and the Print were allegedly barred from attending a joint press conference by Delhi chief minister and AAP chief Arvind Kejriwal and Punjab chief minister Bhagwant Mann in Delhi on Friday. The press conference was intended to discuss the worsening air quality in Delhi and surrounding areas.
Santwana Bhattacharya, editor of the New Indian Express, tweeted that the newspaper’s photojournalists were “disallowed” from the press conference, as were photojournalists from Morning Standard, a Delhi daily published by the same group.
