Description

#ThePrintUninterruptedPTI held its interview with Chinese ambassador to India Sun Weidong for four hours, giving the Ministry of External Affairs time to respond to Ambassador Sun's remarks. That evening, the MEA spokesperson went on record with several critical comments about Chinese intrusions, all of which were incorporated into the PTI story, M K Razdan, former editor-in-chief and CEO of Press Trust Of India (PTI) told ThePrint's National & Strategic Affairs editor Jyoti Malhotra. PTI is a neutral and unbiased organisation and has distinguished personalities in its board and "they won't allow anything which is against the national integrity of India", Razdan said. He was speaking about the recent controversy in which Prasar Bharati told PTI that it will review its subscription as the news agency's recent news coverage was "detrimental to the national interest."
