EP90: Bengal Horror: Kolkata Police On Intimidation Spree?

"I want to understand on what basis did the Kolkata police sent me a notice when in 2023 there is a Supreme Court judgement in some other case where the Supreme Court has said that members of the editors guild journalists cannot be arrested even if what they are publishing is fake because they are doing their job. This is a Supreme Court judgement. "I am just a citizen journalist. I am asking questions. I am not even writing a fake report. I am just questioning the Kolkata police and want to know some answers. So the law is only applicable, and the judgements are only applicable for certain editors guild, and privilege journalists and not ordinary citizens like me. That is something I would want to know from the judiciary as well," says Shefali Vaidya. In this episode of What This Means with Diksha Yadav, she shares what happened when she first learned about the notice from the Kolkata Police, why her lawyer advised her to delete the post, and her concerns about the poor state of law and order in West Bengal, including the intimidation faced by many citizens who are expressing their frustration and anger on social media by sharing information."
