ISLAMABAD: A recent report by Kashmir Media Service has criticized the Indian media for displaying blatant partisanship and bias, particularly in its coverage of the Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).
The report, released today, accuses the media of being a mouthpiece for the RSS/BJP and spreading fabricated stories that misrepresent the Kashmiris’ struggle for freedom.
Since August 2019, the coverage of IIOJK by Indian outlets has significantly aligned with the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), promoting falsehoods about the conditions in the occupied territory.
The report also highlights a consistent distortion of ground realities in Kashmir, with Indian media accused of using fake news to shift international focus away from the human rights abuses committed by Indian troops.
Furthermore, the report condemns Indian media for its role in disseminating misinformation and supporting the Modi regime’s authoritarian policies in Kashmir.
It asserts that Indian journalists and TV anchors have tailored their narratives to align with government propaganda, contributing to a severe breach of journalistic integrity.
