ЁЯЪи PRESS FREEDOM UNDER QUESTION IN DELHI | JOURNALISTS DETAINED DURING PROTEST COVERAGE
When journalists covering public protests become the story themselves, serious questions arise about press freedom and the public's right to information.
Reports claim that more than 30 journalists were detained in Delhi within a single week while covering ongoing protests and demonstrations. Reporters, photojournalists, and independent camera crews were allegedly detained near protest sites.
ЁЯУ╣ According to the claims, some journalists had their phones and cameras confiscated, while others were held at police stations for hours.
ЁЯУ░ The Press Club of India and other media bodies have reportedly raised concerns over the alleged police action, calling attention to press freedom and journalists' ability to report on public events.
