Reporters Without Orders Ep 344: Police raj and rift within BJP in UP
A reporters’ podcast about what made news and what shouldn’t have.
This week, host Anmol Pritam is joined by Scroll’s Ayush Tiwari.
Ayush has reported on the increasing rift between Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath and the BJP. He explains how the making of Yogi as a “tough and strong” leader has led to dissatisfaction among the cadre and created cracks within the party. He says the power has shifted from party workers and MLAs to police officials.
Tune in.
