Reporters Without Orders Reporters Without Orders Ep 263: Adani’s new auditor, Amritsar’s missing DD tower
This week, it’s an all-Newslaundry panel as host Akanksha Kumar is joined by Basant Kumar and Ashwine Kumar Singh.
The discussion begins with Basant’s report on an auditing firm associated with the Adani Group that was flagged in the Hindenburg research report. Basant explains the timeline of events and how mainstream media, particularly television, has not fully covered the story.
Ashwine talks about how the I&B ministry in 2002 gave permission to Doordarshan to build a TV tower in a village in Amritsar. Crores and decades later, the tower still hasn’t come up. “It’s a classic example of corruption and delay of government projects,” Ashwine says.
Tune in.
