Congress moves Broadcasting Authority against Zee News over Rahul Gandhi video

Hindustan Times  

The Congress on Wednesday filed a complaint to the News Broadcasting and Digital Standards Authority against Zee News and an anchor of the television channel accusing them of distorting a video clip and “falsely and maliciously” depicting former Congress president Rahul Gandhi as a sympathiser of the killers of Udaipur tailor, Kanhaiya Lal. In a letter to the NBDSA chairperson, Congress spokesperson Pawan Khera said the mistake of distorting the clip has not been made by any other news agency, channel or newspaper except for Zee News. “The impugned news broadcast by Zee News had sought to falsely and maliciously suggest that former INC President Shri Rahul Gandhi demonstrated sympathy for the killers of Kanhaiya Lal by calling them “children”,” said Khera in the letter. The senior Congress leader clarified that the comments made by Rahul Gandhi were referring to the vandalism of the party office in Wayanad and “were in no way connected with the horrifying murder of Kanhaiya Lal in Udaipur.” “It was only after numerous complaints by the INC and the public at large, wherein the distortion and falsity of the broadcast were pointed out that impugned news broadcast was taken down,” the letter said.
