    Citizens should not allow this BJP agent to take over NDTV as at the moment it is the only company which g unbiased news and if Adani group takes it over that will be the nd of press freedom. This is probably in preparation for the next election.

    ..few days back when a news paper questioned INFOSYS on frequent glitches in GST software, then NDTV telecasted series of debates calling its attack on Indian Inc. & Industry is too much afraid because of this press attack...if you see their news reports since 2014, they frequently attacked/gave negative reports on Adani/Anil ambani..Anil Ambani even filed defamation case..NDTV thinks its press freedom they do, if others do then its attack..for the past 2 years NDTV telecasted all negative news on Indian economy(even its because of Covid) and said all Industry going brankrupt..but if you see their P/L (available in Moneycontrol website) for the 2 years profit is zooming & their share reach Rs70 from Rs 40/-..

    Very true, Ranga, Mangalore. They, frustratingly, are out to destroy everything that is going good. I know the inside outs and the agenda. A very positive development.
