Go to any Indian news channel, people openly mock Indian government without any repurcussions. Infact some publication with anti Govt, anti India stance thrive within the country.

What rubbish, the mocking is severely limited to as long as you don't directly name the big bosses or don't criticize the hyped government policies. Yeah you may not be censured by the media, but you will be invited to Jail under treason laws, or be tagged as Anti-National or Anti-social element. And then bakths engage to harass that individual. Multiple individual journalists have been jailed, for asking questions. Unless someone is a well renowned big name, they will for sure be in big trouble. "In fact some publication with anti Govt" is exactly the sad reality for most of the world, journalism is supposed to be critical where needed, you can't say some publications thrive. Journalists aren't supposed to be the friends of govt, tell me why majority of the media in India is never critical on govt. Journalists are invited to all govt event: There have been instances where news channels were banned from attending, or straight up were blocked from telecasting.

  Your first 2 lines are factually wrong. Give examples or don't court lies. I can shares clips of news channels directly naming and accussing key govt personell and having no repurcussions. Caravan, the print, scroll , the hindu, NDTV are thriving. Even newslaundry with its tarnished reputation attacks govt on daily basis. Give examples, c'mon. Also meaning of bhakt is a Hindu devotee which you are using as slur which is hinduphobic. Please refrain from using it.

    Talk about playing victim, bakth doesn't mean Hindu devotee. It signifies a person who is devoted to anything, in this case BJP. If using a certain sanskrit word is hinduphobic, probably we Indians can quit internet. Also You are either lying when you say, or so deep in propaganda, when you say NDTV is thriving while Adani(yeah we know where his loyalty lies) has taken over ownership recently. When you say The Hindu is anti-govt, I can understand you don't understand what journalism means. There is no point in discussion of this further, because a quick Google search can show how many journalists have been arrested in bogus cases for asking questions.

Yeah, this is not true at all. The leader of the opposition was literally removed from parliament for mocking the Prime Minister by calling him a thief. Which is likely not even factually incorrect. PM Cares lol.
