Pretty much the same story in India. Leave alone fringe elements, things supporting mainstream opposition or questioning the dear leader (modi) or his favourite industrialist (adani) get called fake news and banned or attacked. Some of you might have heard of the bbc documentary on modi's genocidal politics and the Hindenburg report on adani's corruption which came out recently. Both are western propaganda to bring down resurgent india, according to the government. BBC documentary is banned and news agencies are busy equating adani with india and calling for action against Indian journalists and opposition who have been crying hoarse against adani's crony capitalism long before Hindenburg report. Government agencies including market regulators are threatening short sellers without so much as pretending to investigate the Hindenburg accusations, as adani stock tumbles.
