“Prime Minister Modi, why don’t you take questions from the freest press in the world,” shouts a journalist in Norway during PM Modi’s press statement


I was very dissapointed that the prime minister of Norway did not include time today for the Indian reporters. I expect more of him tomorrow. @jonasgahrstore

When there is nothing to hide, there is nothing to fear. What happens to India’s image when the world sees a compromised PM panic and run from a few questions?

NOTE: There was a time when asking tough and inconvenient questions, of our netas in a press conference was ROUTINE (was famously thrown out of one in 1992) ; now it’s become so RARE that when a not so tough question is posed by a Norwegian journalist at a press briefing , it becomes a big story and leads to the bona fides and ‘agenda’ of the reporter being questioned! Yeh kahan aa gaye hum!🙏





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.

Tried to ask PM Modi a question on the way to the elevator to, but the closing doors stopped me. What I was wondering was whether he thinks he deserves the trust of the Nordic countries given his human rights violations and his restrictions on press freedom.
