1. There is a concerted effort to make racast UP's & Yogi's image as that of a 'transformer'.. same way as it was done for Modi, post Godhra.

The ET report is perfect eg of what "good journalists" are doing to keep fascists propped up..
2. The reporter states both sides *as if* they are equal- while consistently privileging economic metrics over humanitarian crimes being committed by Yogi.

This shocking lie of quote had no follow up:
3. Journalist #SiddiqueKappan trying to report Hathras rape, there are encounter killings; love jihad laws have led to forcible abortion in UP jails.

Yet this sentence is presented as a fact just because the reporter listed out the other side..as is being fair.
Towards the end, the report reveals itself for what it is: a shameless plug by a financial newspaper

Yogi is presiding over a humanitarian disaster & is being made to look like a transformer by mainstream newspapers. Shame on Indian journalism.
