Ever since the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) assumed power at the Centre in 2014, sections of both domestic and international Islamo-leftist media outlets have continuously generated biased reports and documentaries.

In the dense urban maze of the Lal Bagh slum in Azadpur, North-West Delhi, the oppressive midnight air was broken not by the usual background hum of the nearby fruit market, but by a sudden verbal altercation that swiftly escalated into fatal violence.

“Hindus and Muslims are like my two eyes.” These are the words repeated on several occasions by Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy to project his secular stance and articulate his administration's governance approach.
