There's a reason that Zee & its entity @ZeeNews are vociferous propaganda machines for the Modi govt. & spread venom for the BJP.

They literally have a quid pro quo agreement & an alliance with the BJP.

Let me tell you how.

Let's look at BJP's contributions for the year 2016-17.

Zee contributed a whopping 2 crores to BJP.

Zee Learn contributed 25 lakhs & Essel Infra contributed 1 crores.

Incidentally - Zee/Essel's Subhash Chandra got a Rajya Sabha seat from BJP in the SAME year.

Also, Zee-owned Dish TV contributed 50 lakhs in 2016-17.

A total of almost 4 crores - that's the BJP's going rate for a Rajya Sabha seat.

Dish TV's story is even more interesting.

Remember BJP's mysterious NaMo TV last year? The I&B Ministry said they had no idea about the channel. The ECI & BJP's Amit Malviya said on-the-record that NaMo TV is broadcast by BJP.

Guess who handled the satellite uplink for NaMo TV?

Yup - it was Zee's Dish TV.

This is just a small snapshot of how embedded the Zee ecosystem is with BJP & Modi Govt.

Zee donates to BJP & enjoys govt. favors & ads.

It fills its pockets up while spreading communal hate & propaganda & instigating mobs against people.

This is how sold-out they are.

PS: These are just official documented contributions by Zee to BJP.

With cash & electoral bonds, sadly, we’ll never know the real extent truthfully.
