.@JeffBezos, since I came to India early last summer to be the The Post's India bureau chief, one thing was abundantly clear: in India's media ecosystem very few outlets can do accountability reporting without fear of government censure. The Post is one of them. Since August, we showed the ways Indian billionaires got treated far better than others; the role of Indian conglomerates in fueling Russia's war in Ukraine; India's draconian deportation campaign of Muslims to Bangladesh and stories unpacking the breakdown in diplomatic relations between Washington and New Delhi. We in New Delhi want to keep doing our jobs so The Post readers can understand the South Asia region better — a wish we hope you share. #SaveThePost

I hope the @washingtonpost doesn't cut international coverage. From South Asia, my team and I have reported on the India-Pakistan conflict (yes, the one Trump is obsessed with), insurgencies in the remotest villages (photo below), government overthrows, and China's growing influence in the region.

Inside India, the Sikh cause to carve out a land called Khalistan from the state of Punjab largely fizzled out decades ago. Yet the Indian government still frames the Khalistan movement as a threat to national security — for reasons more mundane but no easier to weed out. Sikh Activists See It as Freedom. India Calls It Terrorism. nytimes.com/2024/11/03/wor…
