Journalism is sometimes confrontational. We seek answers. If any interview subject, especially with power, do not answer what I asked, I will try to interrupt and get a more focused response. That is my job & duty. I want answers and not just talking points.

“I told PM Modi that you may have the 5th largest economy in the world but the world respects Gandhi more. The world has not named streets after you like they have for Nehru. I told Modi this and he winced,” says US Congressman Ro Khanna

Gm Abhisar bhai. If I am a "sycophant" of the Union Govt because I do not agree that our INDIA is not an Emirates or Palestine or Cuba, then I leave it to your judgement. I continue to hold you in high regards and respect your pov! BTW you remember our dinner at BBQ nation, Noida: where you asked me to help you and talk to a present Union Minister wrt some trolling about your family. This was in the first term of this government. I got back to you on details and then you went in appeal etc. Maybe that time I, Tehseen was not the adjectives you called me . But bhai, I am a self made person &the future is mine! Love ❤

Stop pretending to be a voice from opposition. You normalize hatred from the BJP and its followers. You are nothing but a sycophant of the establishment. Stop this charade of being a voice of the opposition . I hope even the Congress is not in a misunderstanding anymore about you. You and your brother. . Ek se badhkar ek. And here defending the indefensible .
Tehseen Poonawalla Official 🇮🇳@tehseenp

I am amongst the voice of the opposition in INDIA & everyday I attack the government on television & social media, am severely critical of the PM & his ministers and no one has ever taken any action against me. I find it offensive you compare my country's press freedom with Emirates or Cuba ! Sure all INDIAN's would want even greater freedom of speech but your comparison of freedom of media in INDIA being comparable with regimes that police FoS is absolutely false & unfortunate! Wish you luck!! @HelleLyngSvends

Norwegian journalist Helle Lyng Svends @HelleLyngSvends has become a growing embarrassment for Norway’s citizens and our Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre @jonasgahrstore . What should have been a proud moment for Norway @norwaymfa hosting Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi @PMOIndia @narendramodi for the first time in 43 years, awarding him the country’s highest civilian honor, signing a Green Strategic Partnership with 12 new agreements on clean energy, sustainability, health tech, digital cooperation, and trade was instead hijacked by her personal grandstanding and turned into an international spectacle that makes Norway look rude, entitled, and diplomatically clumsy.This wasn’t a full open press conference. It was a joint statement session with clear protocols. Modi followed standard procedure for such high-level bilateral visits: brief remarks, handshake, and exit. Yet Helle positioned herself as the hero, later tweeting that Modi “would not take my question” while waving the World Press Freedom Index (Norway #1, India #157). She framed it as brave journalism. Most Norwegians see it as embarrassing performative activism that damages our national interests.Norway’s relationship with India matters. We are building real partnerships in the green transition exactly the kind of cooperation Norwegians expect from our government. Billions in potential investments, jobs, technology sharing, and climate goals. Modi’s visit was substantive diplomacy. Instead of highlighting these achievements, the global narrative became “Modi dodges questions in free Norway” thanks to Helle’s viral 16-second clip. This helps no one except her personal brand.Real journalism holds power to account, but there’s a time, place, and manner. Ambushing a foreign head of government during a state visit on Norwegian soil, in front of our own Prime Minister, crosses into disrespect. It signals to the world that Norway cannot host important partners without turning events into awkward confrontations. What message does this send to leaders from Germany, the US, China, or Saudi Arabia? Come to Oslo at your own risk?Helle’s approach reflects poorly on Norwegian citizens who value pragmatism, politeness, and results over viral outrage. Many of us are cringing. We pay taxes for competent foreign policy, not for journalists to chase personal clout at the expense of our Prime Minister’s hard work. Støre stood there politely while our guest was effectively ambushed. This undermines the goodwill built over months of preparation.The World Press Freedom Index she brandished is published by Reporters Without Borders — an NGO with its own biases, selective sourcing, and inconsistencies. India is the world’s largest democracy with a raucous, competitive media landscape. Modi has been elected multiple times by 1.4 billion people. He chooses his communication style Mann Ki Baat, controlled interviews, direct voter outreach and has stuck to it for over a decade. That’s his prerogative as India’s leader. Norway’s press norms do not dictate how foreign elected leaders behave on our soil. By shouting during a joint briefing and then spinning the walk-off as cowardice, Helle ignored the substance: cultural exchanges, economic deals, shared Arctic and Indo-Pacific interests. She made it about “her question.” This self-centered stunt fuels stereotypes of arrogant Europeans lecturing the Global South. India is a rising superpower and vital partner, not some dictatorship to be publicly shamed. Her actions risk harming Norway’s reputation as a serious, respectful actor on the world stage.Norwegians pride ourselves on being practical and solution-oriented. We understand that diplomacy requires tact. Shouting at guests during photo-ops achieves nothing constructive. If Helle has legitimate concerns about press freedom in India, there are better forums: op-eds, interviews with Indian journalists, or private diplomatic channels. Turning a bilateral summit into her personal protest makes Norway look unserious and weakens Støre’s position.This incident highlights a deeper issue with parts of legacy Norwegian media: more activism than balanced reporting. Many citizens already distrust mainstream outlets for prioritizing ideology and clicks over national interests. Helle’s behavior reinforces that skepticism. She is becoming a symbol of why some Norwegians roll their eyes at Dagsavisen commentators more focused on international virtue-signaling than serving Norwegian readers or advancing pragmatic foreign policy. PM Støre deserves better. His government invested time and resources to strengthen ties with India at a time when energy security, green tech, and diversified partnerships are critical. Helle’s grandstanding risks poisoning the atmosphere for future cooperation. Indian officials and citizens noticed. The replies to her post were filled with Indians pointing out the format was never a full Q&A, questioning why a Norwegian journalist feels entitled to hijack their PM’s visit.We should expect more from our journalists. Question leaders yes. But do it professionally, not by turning important state visits into cringe-worthy viral moments that embarrass the host nation. Norway’s citizens want a media that informs, not one that performs. We want a Prime Minister who can deliver results without his events being derailed by ego.Helle Lyng Svends is increasingly becoming an embarrassment not just for herself, but for all of us who value Norway’s reputation as a competent, respectful country. It’s time for reflection in Norwegian media circles: Is this the image we want the world to see? A nation of serious partners or lecturing activists chasing likes? Enough with the stunts. Focus on the deals that actually benefit Norwegians energy, jobs, technology, and a stable world order. Our Prime Minister and our country deserve diplomacy that works, not viral embarrassment.

After press statements in Oslo, Norwegian press object to the PMs not taking questions as they normally do. Norway PM Store returns to do interviews with Norwegian media.
Helle Lyng@HelleLyngSvends

Primeminister of India, Narendra Modi, would not take my question, I was not expecting him to. Norway has the number one spot on the World Press Freedom Index, India is at 157th, competing with Palestine, Emirates & Cuba. It is our job to question the powers we cooperate with.

I request our management, @realpreityzinta, @PunjabKingsIPL and all respective personalities that associated with the team, please please keep one home ground it's difficult for the team to adapt conditions. It's like we are playing only 4 home matches and all other are away games, if you want that our team will win trophy in the future, we have to play in 1 homeground. We are literally dominating in mullanpur and now all three loses in dharamshala. Not against the stadium, but it's difficult for the players. Thank you and keep an eye on this situation

@sauravyadav1133 TMC के खिलाफ वोट देने वाले डर के मारे TV पे बोल भी नही पाते थे, इतना डर था TMC के गुंडों का। बीजेपी और कांग्रेस के कार्यकर्ता आये दिन उनसे पिट जाते थे, और यहाँ उन्हे चिंटी की तरह कमज़ोर बताया जा रहा है। बुद्धिमता की परकाष्ठा।

महान अफ्रीकी नेता डेसमंड टूटू (Desmond Tutu) का मशहूर कोट है “If you are neutral in situations of injustice, you have chosen the side of the oppressor. If an elephant has its foot on the tail of a mouse and you say that you are neutral, the mouse will not appreciate your neutrality.” "नाइंसाफ़ी के वक़्त आप निष्पक्ष हैं तो आप दमनकर्ता की तरफ़ हैं। हाथी का पैर चूहे के ऊपर है और आप कहते हैं कि आप किसी के पक्ष में नहीं हैं तो चूहा आपकी इस निष्पक्षता को बिल्कुल नहीं सराहेगा" आपका कहना है कि आप दोनों पक्षों में नहीं है तो मतलब अगर आप इमरजेंसी के वक्त होते तो तब भी आप दोनों पक्षों में नहीं होते और तटस्थ होते❓ मुझे लगता है कि पत्रकार को तटस्थ तो नहीं होना चाहिए और एक पक्ष कमजोर हो तो निष्पक्ष भी नहीं होना चाहिए। कुलदीप भाई आपको कहने की जरूरत नहीं है कि हम कांग्रेस और उसके सहयोगी दलों के पक्षधर हैं बिल्कुल हैं क्योंकि बीजेपी जैसी सांप्रदायिक और नफरती पार्टी के सामने कोई भी जागरुक नागरिक उसके विपक्ष में रहना ही चुनेगा। और आभासी दुनिया में ही सच लिखा जा रहा है क्योंकि टीवी चैनलों पर आपके साथियों ने खुद को बीजेपी के चरणों में रख दिया है और आजाद पत्रकारों की रिपोर्ट में हमने जमीन पर भी देखा कि SIR के जरिए क्या खेल किया गया था। हमें कांग्रेसी ठहरा कर आप मीडिया वालों की खामियां नहीं छिपेंगी सब समझ गए हैं कि मीडिया सिर्फ दिखता है जनता की तरफ लेकिन है वो सत्ता की तरफ। आखिरी लाइन आपकी आपके लिए ज्यों की त्यों... कोर्स करेक्शन के लिए ज़रूरी है, समस्या का स्वीकार. सेहत और राजनीति, डिनायल दोनों में आत्मघाती साबित हो सकता है.

रोशन किशोर (@Roshanjnu) भारत में डेटा एनालिसिस की पत्रकारिता के चर्चित लेखकों में हैं. उनका यह विश्लेषण पढ़ना चाहिए. लिखते हैं— “A deeper analysis of the election results provides more evidence that the obsession with attributing TMC’s loss to SIR is misplaced. In fact, Muslims on the electoral roll, rather than those who were possibly disenfranchised because of SIR, might have played a bigger role in the TMC’s poor showing this time.” विस्तार से समझने के लिए पूरा विश्लेषण पढ़ें. लिंक नीचे है. अपना कोई वैचारिक एजेंडा है नहीं, प्रिय सौरभ जी. आपका ज़रूर है. आप स्पष्ट तौर पर कांग्रेस और उसके सहयोगी दलों के पक्षधर हैं. अपन दोनों पक्षों में नहीं हैं और अध्येता-वॉचडॉग की भूमिका में है. तो नैरेटिव का धंधा अपना नहीं है. आभासी दुनिया में कुछ भी लिखा जाता रहे, TMC के नेताओं से ही ऑफ कैमरा पूछ लेंगे तो हार के कारण बता देंगे. मीडिया की आलोचना करें. लेकिन अंधाधुंध फ़ायरिंग से आपकी (आपके पक्ष की) ख़ामियाँ नहीं छिपेंगी. विचारना चाहिए कि उत्तरी बंगाल और जंगल महल के इलाक़ों में दलितों-आदिवासियों ने बीजेपी को क्यों चुना और इन इलाक़ों में तृणमूल खाता क्यों नहीं खोल पाई. कैसे तृणमूल सरकार में लॉ एंड ऑर्डर के मसले इतने बड़े हो गए कि देश ने एक वक़्फ़े के बाद ऐसी सत्ताविरोधी लहर देखी. कोर्स करेक्शन के लिए ज़रूरी है, समस्या का स्वीकार. सेहत और राजनीति, डिनायल दोनों में आत्मघाती साबित हो सकता है. hindustantimes.com/india-news/los…

बिहार के सबसे बड़े बस स्टैंड आईएसबीटी पटना में शौचालयों की स्थिति दयनीय है। माननीय मुख्यमंत्री महोदय, मैं आपका ध्यान बिहार के सभी बस स्टैंड में शौचालयों की स्थिति पर लाना चाहूंगा खासकर पटना में स्थित आईएसबीटी पटना के शौचालय पर । यह शौचालय उपयोग के काबिल नहीं है। मैं आपका ध्यान इस ओर भी लाना चाहता हूं कि पटना शहर केवल बिहारियों के लिए नहीं बल्की नॉर्थ ईस्ट के सभी राज्यों के लिए भी कनेक्टिंग सिटी का काम करता है। अतः आपसे अनुरोध है कि टूरिज्म को बल मिले इसके लिए बहुत जरूरी है कि बिहार के सभी जिला मुख्यालयों और अन्य बस स्टैंडों में स्थित शौचालयों में सुचारू रूप से सफाई की व्यवस्था की जाए और यह सुनिश्चित किया जाए कि यह शौचालय हर हमेशा महिलाओं के लिए स्वच्छ वातावरण उपलब्ध कराएं। अभी तो हाल बहुत खराब है। @officecmbihar @samrat4bjp #Bihar #shauchalay #Safai #महिलाओं_के_लिए_शौचालय_की_व्यवस्था
