More power to you, Barkha, for resolutely standing up against the TMC spokesperson who tried to silence you while you demanded accountability for sexual violence. Your bravery in confronting this bullying is truly commendable.
Barkha, DO NOT STOP DOING WHAT YOU ARE DOING! YOU HAVE THE UTMOST RESPECT FROM US INDIAN CITIZENS AND WE WOMEN SALUTE YOU ALL THE WAY!!!! YOUR ANGER IS FULLY JUSTIFIED!
Dear Barkha .You were right to ask him go.No one understands the agony & the victim might have suffered.CM of WB is insensitive. You keep doing good work & Brave Barkha😊
I am from Seattle. I Salute you Barkha! It is not only Women from India that is shook up about this incident!!! So shocked with how everything is being handled.
Barkha, I have been seeing and hearing you on all platforms since may be 25years, and you have proved your integrity time and again. In this instance, too, you are on the right track. We need your kind of journalism - brave and bold.and honest.
Well done Barkha ma'am, you are our nation's journalist, our voice, you represent us Ma'am. We love and respect you 🙏Keep up the Good Work. Our love and blessings are with you 🙏💜
You are a very brave journalist, Barkha. Your ousting of the misogynist TMC politician was absolutely the right thing to do. Your rage is 100 pc justified. Keep up your great journalism 👍👍
Obviously the young doctor was ready to expose the goings on in the hospital . And with the connivance &support of the staff& govt in power ..that brave doctor sacrificed herself for a cause !
As a former journalist, I have always been inspired by your efforts to bring truth to light and let perpetrators pay for their actions. However corrupt governments and their coteries choose to be, journalists need to speak up and ask the questions that get readers/ viewers thinking. Thank you for upholding the truth and keeping the integrity of the fourth estate intact.
why call tmc minsiters like saket ghokle, mohua moitra and sagarika ghosh , layers like kapil sibal, writers like arundhati roy etc who safeguard and justify criminals ?? Call responsible and unbiased citizens, activists, lawyers, experts, spokespersons..
As an ardent fan of yours following you since your very old NDTV days in Kargil, you are among only a couple of Indian journalists I follow. The extremely high credentials that u have built over decades cannot be bloated by such nonsense idiots. You came down to Kolkata to get things at the ground zero. We badly need you in this hour of need. Thank you ma’am .❤. I will suggest in such cases. Just mute him forcefully. Let him hear in mute. Let him/her blabber without you getting drawn in to it up to a limit, then you mute & carry on with your programme as these things badly distract the viewers who are your serious listeners. Ignore them as much u can. But what you did is absolutely right. We are with you.
The TMC spokesperson, who was in the hot seat, was unfairly accused of ranting but the accuser in the end appeared to be doing exactly that in quite an uncharacteristic manner.
Thank you very much Barkha for keeping the pressure on this issue. I am not for Modi but TMC is proving the critics right that TMC is really part of hooligans and rapists. We the people need to keep the Govt or the Opposition in check and I wish RG leads the Opposition without TMC.
Barkha, you are the standard bearer of journalism in India. Keep doing your job with the same dignity and integrity. We depend on people like you to keep our nation on the path of democracy.
It's crucial to trust but verify your sources, especially in sensitive situations like this. Even a small piece of misinformation can have serious consequences. The Mamata government has much to account for, but journalists must be extra cautious not to exacerbate tensions. Focus on accuracy over speed-no one understands this better than you.
We are with you Barkha. You know better than us what happens in these kind of cases. Journalists are targeted every time We wait for your sessions. Keep on doing good work. After 30 years of service you know well your job. Thanks a lot for this session. Lot of courage and honesty. ❤
Hi Barkha, Thank you for standing up against this bully. Your courage and integrity is inspiring not only for the upright journalists but also for common women and men.
Absolutely he came to your show to silence the truth!! You are there to speak out the truth about the horrific crime that took place on this innocent doctor 🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️: You’re strong and courageous and seems you will never take bullshit from those who want to shut us up 👍👍👍❤️❤️❤️
When the need of the hour is compassion and comforting the lady doctor's parents, this aggressive gentleman (?) should have behaved appropriately . There is absolutely no harm in apologizing and saying we made a mistake and are taking corrective action.
My question was, since the body was discovered and reported to police, fir lodged post mortem done by evening, police official after recording the case dairy returned by night... No mention when was the crime scene secured.. If it is true knowing background of culprit police has given a free hand to erase crime scene.. I have not seen anyone raising the question.
You are doing a great job reporting on the most gruesome murder of a trainee doctor doing her post graduation 32:08 ever committed in a hospital campus and the government of the day is hell bent upon covering up
Madam, I respect you for your unbiased & bold journalism , since Kargil War days , but, as a normal Logical , unbiased Citizen , it has observed by me that, there is no reporting from your side, regarding Farukabad, Ankita Bhandary in uttarakhand, Badlapur .... may I know Why ???????
It just shows the arrogance of the TMC leaders. From Mohua Moitra to Saket Gokhale to Kalyan Banerjee, they are all symptoms of absolute arrogance and rot that has taken over the TMC. They are still coming out with all kinds of shit to protect the corrupt and the indefensible.
When is TMC not being bullies, Bengal is being brow bitten by the party led by their beloved didi, it's such a shame, before this incident, I had no opinion about bengal politics but after seeing all the news i have come to the conclusion that bengal politics is really dirty
He was putting his side. He questioned why misinformation propagated by means of quotes from individuals. Journalists can't say I have quoted the source and get absolved of all responsibility. You were very abrupt and defensive. You felt like that. I watched it. He was just being a 'normal' party spokesperson. I could not differentiate him from another party spokesperson.
Why you are explaining again and again Barkha?! I have watched yesterday. And it seemed like you were feeling bad to handle him the way he should have handled. I disagree with the word ‘ woman’. I was watching main stream channels, they are aggressive towards every journalist regardless their genders.
Barkha thank you for being there for all of us very often we want to talk but have never done so. I was waiting to hear you ever since this horrifying event was being shown. Imagine what those parents are going through.
Barkha, our respect for you has grown exponentially! You are truly one of the most hardworking journalists out there. We've watched your live reporting on many occasions, and I've always admired your relentless work ethic, discipline, and incredible storytelling ability. ❤ People like Saket, who resort to bullying, are just minor distractions. They don't deserve the attention or the platform to derail the conversation. The focus shouldn't be on any journalist or political party. The priority must remain on the young woman who tragically lost her life to rape and ensuring that justice is served. Period. Lots of love from Toronto, Canada! 🇨🇦
Barkha, you articulated how we feel at the moment. The rape was horrific, absolutely. What makes this particular case so infuriating is this attitude of the TMC leaders, their constant coverups, removing women from night duty, the insensitive statements and the callous attitude. Please keep reporting on this till the REAL culprits are found.
We're not surprised, Barkha. If you question them on anything wrong they have done, they’ll immediately question you on BJP ruled states! Leave alone these small spokespersons, I challenge you to interview Mamata Banerjee. You will soon be branded as CPM/ BJP supporter!
How to trust post mortem report that was prepared by a doctor in the same hospital where the crime took place and under supervision of the tainted principal
I think Bharka went overboard… I have seen how BJP ppl comes and speaks ridiculous things ands she just kept quite then .. not supporting what happened in Kolkata but it does not mean she has her platform get mad …. Its ok
Well done Barkha not Just for this but for Showing Courage on the issue of Biological Males in women's sports as well entire Indian Left is standing at the other end on this issue but you show tremendous courage to speak whats right as far as this is concern yes Indians are expressing shock Over RG case but again they dont want to question TMC once again Indian Leftists took Side Which you bravely didn't succum to .India is too divided between Right & Left People are getting cancelled for not agreeing to any side
You are so right about the regular press briefings with limited time questions from the media without compromising the case would calm the public and stop the false narratives every time👍🏽
Barkha acted like a nuisance she was while in NDTV and like all other NDTV journalists at large. All Indian "journalists" should watch all national TV channels of US, UK, France, Iran, Russia, Qatar and Bangladesh, yes Bangladesh. The guests can do that too, but first "journalists". There is nothing patriarchal about he was trying to say that the evidence was not damaged ( I don't know if it is true). In Indian channels there are far crass political operatives attending than this man. Indian children and adults should be taught to speak less and listen more. India is lost in the dumbness, lack of intelligence and reason of people and addiction to sensationalism and anti-intellectualism.
Barkha you cannot mute guests & tell them to leave , please learn from arnab goswami , uptil now he hasnt removed anyone on his show & trust me many ppl come to target him and speak over him
Barkha, we are standing at a critical junction of Indian Democracy. If the Supreme Court does not deliver “JUSTICE”, then the democracy in India and the union will be in dander. Please continue with your reporting.
Your decision on telling him to leave the conversation is very appropriate . He had no positive approach and just disrupting the purpose of this sensitive and extremely saddening incident . 🙏
Why is Supreme Court taking this case when they do not take up duo motto cases of wrongful fake cases of AAP and many other cases . TMC clearly has a role in keeping draconian principal who walks around in his institute with bouncers. Ridiculous state of affairs of high handed ness. Congratulations to you for Barkha for removing him from the show. Such politicians must be shown the door by the voters too.
Barkha I have been critical of you and have also admired you. And this man you threw out of your show? Did not deserve to be on the show at the onset. You were correct in your stance , just like you have been in so very many instances. Keep going your credibility cannot be questioned. Your conduct speaks for itself. Kudos.
Barkha, I have been watching your programme from the UK for several years. I like your programme. There are a lot of unanswered questions in this gruesome murder and rape of this young lady doctor while on duty. We need to know the truth, and you are absolutely on the right track.. So stick to your programme and keep us informed of the way you are.
You are absolutely on right side.I appreciate your gesture. Other journalists should follow your trend In stead of becoming a partisan political spoon.Carry on...Three cheers to you ❤
This was a show gone out of control. The doctor in your show did talk with conviction about amount of semen and then on next day had sorry figure when he was proven wrong. He did not even apologize. Your saying that I just interviewed a doctor is not enough, isn't it? What you had to do was justified as the whole show was getting derailed, so ok, though this is not the ideal way to control a talk show. You lost your cool yesterday.
Absolutely I have always admired Barkha for having a sensible viewpoint but she completely lost it yesterday and took it as a personal attack. And then playing the episode again😅 .....well the lady doth protest too much.
Barkha is getting dramatic and rubbish. He is right. I cannot understand Barkha attacking him. He raised some valid points. And the SC judges seem to be playing to the gallery. I cannot understand why they would not read the diary as pleaded by Kapil. we an see the tone of the judges changing towards the end but they have already done the damage of perception.
@@dangyho I'm happy for anyone to enrich me😆. But seriously Mamta is the alterego of PM Modi. Not sure why we vote for these people. we deserve what we get.
Dear Burkha mam, you are always with truth and for justice right. You are always showing the facts and telling the truth. This doesn't like criminal dirty politicians. "The truth will . set us free." 🙏
How much I loved this video Barkha! Thank you for not thinking there is anything wrong in being emotionally attached to such a sensitive issue. Factual and unemotional reportage has its place and being vulnerable has its place too! Thank you so much for
DEAR BARKHA, I AM VERY PROUD OF YOU FOR YOUR BRAVE AND BOLD ATTITUDE ! LATE RFK HAD SAID, " EVEN IF YOU ARE ALONE, AND KEEP FAITH AND KEEP GOING ON. OTHERS WILL JOIN YOU EVENTUALLY" BUT HERE, YOU ARE ALREDY HAVING PLENTY OF COMPANY. GOD BLESS YOU. MAY GODDESS BRING PEACE AND JUSTICE TO THE PARENTS OF THE VICTIM.
Hello Barkha, you are one the most hard working journo. I also find that you do stories which are most relevant in that time. Asking good questions all the time and being neutral as well. Keep up your work. Best wishes/ Jitendra
Bharkha u have an outstanding job in the case of alleged gang rape and murder of the doctor on duty in R G kar medical college. U should be proud of ur work, u have been following this case from the beginning, and thank you 🙏
