Mob ransacks NDTV office in Jammu

NDTV

MUMBAI: NDTV's Jammu office was ransacked by a mob after it was labelled partisan by the Shri Amarnath Sangharsh Samiti. The mob also searched for the channel staff who had to run for their lives.

A NDTV office said a slogan-shouting mob entered the office in the residential area of Shastri Nagar, broke window panes and challenged those working for the channel to come out of wherever they were hiding, quoted IANS.

Samiti convenor Leela Karan Sharma, before courting arrest as part of its agitation, accused the channel and its senior journalist Barkha Dutt of being “partisan” in their coverage of separate protests in Jammu region and the Kashmir Valley.
