Description: The latest episode of Reporters Without Orders features our host Amit Bhardwaj, Rohin Verma, two-time Ramnath Goenka awardee Rahul Kotiyal, and Raghava M, Mangalore senior correspondent from The Hindu. The podcast kicks off with a discussion on the risks of reporting from a communally-volatile region like Dakshina Kannada of Karnataka. The Hindu’s Raghava speaks of his experience and how even small spats between members of two communities can flare up into a full-blown riot-like situation. However, he said, as he sticks to the bare facts while reporting, he has not received any threat from Hindu or Muslim fringe groups operational in the region so far. Raghava and the panel also discuss the acquittal of accused including the Ram Sena chief Pramod Muthalik in the 2009 pub attack case. Rahul discusses the row over the elevation of Justice KM Joseph to the Supreme Court and the stand-off between the apex court and the central government. The Chhattisgarh Police has gunned down Maoists in Sukma region of the state. Rohin points out the silence in the media over the Sukma encounter and the questions being raised by activists on the identity of those killed.
