Reporters Without Orders Ep 320: What it’s like to be ‘blacklisted’ by India

This week, host Sumedha Mittal is joined by independent journalist Angad Singh.

Formerly with Vice News, Angad was “blacklisted” by the Indian government over a documentary called India Burning, which he worked on as a production assistant. He talks about dealing with court cases after being accused by the central government of portraying India in a “negative” light. He says his OCI card was taken anyway and talks about the sorrow of not being able to return to India anymore.

Tune in.
