जासूसी, निगरानी, नियंत्रण और उत्‍पीड़न के बहुस्‍तरीय राजकीय तंत्र के भीतर बॉम्‍बे हाइ कोर्ट के ताजा आदेश जैसी नागरिक समाज की तमाम कथित ‘कामयाबियां’ ऊंट के मुंह में जीरा से ज्‍यादा कुछ नहीं हैं.

केवल पुलिस या राजनीतिक दलों के कार्यकर्ता नहीं, राज्‍येतर ताकतों से अपेक्षाकृत ज्‍यादा खतरा दिखाई दे रहा है. दिल्....

PRESS RELEASE

DUJ Condemns Life Threatening Attack on Uttarakhand Journo

The Delhi Union of Journalists condemns the life threatening attack on Uttarakhand based journalist Yogesh Dhimri, whose small digital channel Aanwala News has been in the forefront of exposes about the drug and liquor mafia operating in the state. Dhimri is also known for his bold reportage of the Ankita Bhandari r**e and murder case. The attack left him badly injured. We demand an immediate inquiry and adequate compensation and protection for Dhimri.

The DUJ also expresses its shock at the Yogi government’s new Digital Media Policy. This policy is nothing but an “I scratch your back and you scratch mine” method of government sponsored paid news. Under it ‘influencers’ can earn up to Rs 8 lakh per month for promoting state schemes. Much worse, this policy threatens that anyone who posts ‘anti-national’ content on social media may be
punished by imprisonment for anywhere from three years to life in jail. Further, this ‘policy’ carries the threat that obscene and defamatory content posted online will result in criminal defamation charges being brought by the government. Both carrot and stick will be applied to make sure the media toes the official line.

We note with concern that attacks on the media are growing countrywide, whether they are attacks by police on journos covering the protests against the Kolkata r**e murder case or the recent attack on mediapersons by the Jawaharlal Nehru University’s private security agency Cyclops. In the latter case journos covering a student protest were roughed up and a camera and other equipment snatched. We strongly object to such strong arm tactics by university authorities and their agencies towards journalists covering lawful protests.

We are also dismayed by the growing number of attacks on journalists’ livelihoods, with more organisations laying off media persons. Most recently, there is news of the India Today group letting go nearly 200 people, most of them employed with Aajtak and its digital verticals. We strongly object to this pattern of dismissing mediapersons to replace them with AI tools. This, the DUJ fears, will result in further diluting the low journalism standards of many news channels even if it increases their profits.
