When the majority of journalists have either surrendered or bowed before the regime, it is handful of journalists who are keeping afloat the flame of ethical journalism. Rana is a rare breed of courageous journalist. Truly proud of her.

India is in an advanced state of Genocide. It is happening, some in broad daylight, others behind the scene. Very factual article exposing the Hindutva tribe.

India has been a fascist state under this chap Modi. This is coming from a Hindu Brahmin . There is a genocide in making something on the scale that we haven't seen.

The masses has been radicalised beyond limit.

Only fascist minds like Rana Ayyub can think of India being a fascist state. Shame on Ayyub's style of journalism with no objectivity and ethics. Read my article for more: https://www.pgurus.com/rana-ayyubs-journalistic-ethics-and-anti-india-anti-modi-innuendos-in-washington-post/

Claustrophobia you talked about is so real. As a youth of this country, it can get very scary and lonely seeing the rampant hate-mongering by govt. Leaders like you really give us strength and hope to hold onto in these very dark times. Even writing this comment is giving me a mild anxiety attack. I wish we didn't have to live through this cruelty.

I hope that what you have written is an exaggeration. There are many millions of Indians like me who are deeply secular. We believe in the equality of man, equality of religion. This flirtation with RW nationalism is I hope, a phase which will end by 2024 when people realise that Ram Mandir will not fill their bellies. It's all about the economy, jobs and opportunities matter more than enforcing majoritarianism. This is my hope and belief.

You are one courageous lady. Full power to you for calling a spade a spade. Indeed, India is a fascist state. Some people are still living in denial.

So so so many lies in this article. Here are just a few:

Lie number 1: She calls Nathuram Gods a terrorist. This is false. He was an assissin. There's a difference.

Lie number 2: "discriminatory Citizenship bill and the National register of Citizens that seeks proof of nationality from its Muslim population" The CAA has nothing to do with Indian muslims. It is for granting citizenship to persecuted minorities from 3 neighbouring muslim countries. The NRC hasn't even been drafted yet, and it is supposed to make a list of legal citizens in India, both muslim and otherwise. It's not like it'll only question indian muslims or something. What a shameless liar🙄

Lie number 3: "Kapil Mishra held a rally where they gave incendiary speeches against traitors and anti-nationalists (by which they clearly meant Indian Muslims)" How do u know?????? How do u know he meant only and all Indian muslims?????? Rana has no evidence

Lie number 4: "anti Muslim riot" WRONG!! The Delhi riots on the 24th were clearly anti-Hindu in nature. Molotov cocktails were found on the terrace of Tahir Hussain. He and other muslims present shouted "Maro Kaafiro ko!" before gutting Hindus. A constable(Hindu) was killed. IB officer Ankit Sharma's body was mutilated and thrown in the gutter. Dilbar Negi's body was burned. According to confessions of Tahir hussain himself and a number of muslims with him, they planned the riots a long time back b4 they happened. This is all documented in the chargesheets filed by Delhi police. Also well compiled by OpIndia, which did a great job covering the riots.

Lie number 5: "Assam, where thousands of Muslims are being expelled from their homes of their forefathers?" Nope!! They were illegal Bangladeshis who were illegally squatting on Indian land. That's y they were removed.

All rubbish full of lie and deciet. Few example are 1.She quotes SC on Modi but fails to mention that same SC termed her book "Gujarat files as work of fiction & lies " . 2. CAA is about giving faster citizenship to minorities of neighbouring Islam countries 3. Protest against Azaan was at Gurugram and not in Capital Delhi and moreover they were doing azaan on Govt land and in the midst of residential area.4. Nathuram Godse was an ex RSS member ..How much lie she tellls. Their is lie in each and every line. Some one needs to counter her hate propaganda. She never condemns terrorist attack on Hindu or Sikhs or even attack by Maoists on villagers. Shah Rukh became Super star because of love from all sections Same Yusuf Khan and other stars had to change to Dilip Kumar to get accepted by Indians 60-70 years ago

What a complete piece of shit this article is. It truly shows your entire career is based on playing the victim rather than reporting actual facts. You are the epitome of showering one sided narratives that suit your propaganda rather than maintaining any journalistic ethos. Completely shameless and hopeless reporting. The amount of lies you have spewn. For example, those killed in Assam weren't living in the land of their forefathers. They were illegal immigrants occupying goverment land, but you just tried to change the narrative. Do you know most actual Assamese muslims don't even like these illegals that you are trying to glorify? The photographer didn't jump over the dead body because he was a muslim. He jumped because that person who was killed was chasing the photographer with a machete, before being shot dead. But facts don't matter to you. So it was an act of rage rather than an act of religious intolerance, even though what he did was wrong, bringing religion in for every issue is such a unethical form of journalism. May allah actually guide you to realise that your hate mongering business has really gone out of control. Shame, shame.

Par for the course for this fake "journalist." The garbage from Rana is expected. What is sad is so many well-meaning, educated people are taken in. She is the real hate monger taking advantage of liberal democracy to destroy it from within. If India were a fascist state, she'd have been silenced a long time back. You want to see an actual religio-fascist state, go to any of our neighbors - Pakistan or Bangladesh. When you are accustomed to preferential treatment, any hint of equality seems like discrimination.
