Tripura: Journalists' Body writes to PM Modi, Shah and PCI Over Attack on Journalists

A Tripura-based journalists' body has written to PM Modi, Amit Shah and Press Council of India, requesting their intervention in the investigation of attack on six journalists. Tripura Assembly of Journalists (TAJ) alleged that the assaults had started, following CM Biplab Deb's comment that said, “over-excited newspapers are trying to confuse people over Covid-19.” TAJ further said that the condition of the media was better during the Emergency than at present.
