Kashmir Journalists protest against ToI's baseless report
Srinagar,July 20 (Scoop News)-Scores of Kashmiri journalists on Saturday held a silent protest at the Kashmir Press Club premises against the baseless and misleading report published in Times of India the other day.



Journalists from both national and regional media vociferously condemned the malicious report which was based entirely on fabrication and concoction on part of Srinagar based reporter.



Journalists in unanimous voice said that said reporter has no right to defame credible institutions like the Kashmir Press Club, Kashmir Editors Guild and English daily Kashmir Reader.



Besides this, the protesting journalists also deplored the act of labeling Kashmiri journalists by TOI reporter who is unfortunately notorious for disseminating fake news to suit his personal agenda and to avenge his group’s loss in the recently-held elections of KPC.



The journalists further said that Times of India reporter has relied on unsubstantiated claims to malign and endanger the entire journalist fraternity of Kashmir.



Members from KPC, Kashmir Editors Guild, Kashmir Working Journalists Association, Kashmir Journalists Association, Kashmir Press and Photographers Association and several other organisations demanded strict action against TOI reporter.



The protestors also demanded that membership of reporter at KPC should be cancelled without any delay.



Moreover, it was demanded that the ToI must immediately remove the baseless report and immediately publish an unconditional apology for publishing reporter’s fantasies.



Protesters were holding placards which read: “Shame on TOI, reporter is a disgrace to journalism, Down With Fake News, Don't Throttle Press in Kashmir and Cancel reporter’s KPC membership” etc.
