Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal recently shared a news report titled, “\u092c\u094d\u0930\u093f\u091f\u0947\u0928 \u0915\u0947 \u0906\u092e \u091a\u0941\u0928\u093e\u0935\u094b\u0902 \u092e\u0947\u0902 \u0926\u093f\u0916 \u0930\u0939\u0940 \u0939\u0948 \u201c\u0915\u0947\u091c\u0930\u0940\u0935\u093e\u0932 \u092e\u0949\u0921\u0932\u201d \u0915\u0940 \u091d\u0932\u0915” (Translation: “A glimpse of the “Kejriwal Model” can be seen in the UK general elections”). The report, published by an outlet called news24india.org<\/a>, consists of exactly three lines comparing UK’s prime ministerial candidate Rishi Sunak’s promise to provide more money to help people cope with the UK energy crisis, to Kejriwal’s promise of free electricity in the 2020 Delhi elections and the assembly elections in Punjab in the recent past.<\/p>\n

Pro-BJP propaganda account @PoliticalKida shared an infographic that linked the News 24 India Facebook page to AAP worker Dimpal Singh, implying that News 24 India was an AAP propaganda website. This tweet garnered almost two thousand likes. Several other users also dubbed the News 24 India outlet as inauthentic (1<\/a>, 2<\/a>, 3<\/a>, 4<\/a>), owing to its links to the Aam Aadmi Party.<\/p>\n

Analyzing the article<\/span><\/h4>\n

The three-lined News 24 India article opines that Rishi Sunak is following the “Kejriwal Model” after Sunak promised to give more money to help the people of the United Kingdom deal with rising electricity bills if he becomes the Prime Minister. The “Kejriwal Model” reportedly entails Kejriwal’s promise of free electricity which has helped him win several elections, including the recent Punjab assembly elections.<\/p>\n

This article, like many other News 24 India articles, lacks a proper byline. The author of this so-called opinion piece has only made claims without any substantiation whatsoever. Several major media outlets including Aaj Tak<\/a> and Zee News<\/a> have published opinion pieces comparing Sunak’s move to Kejriwal’s campaign strategy. But as the reader might notice, all of them are well-drafted pieces with proper corroboration and noticeably more than three lines. In fact, the title of the News 24 India article seems to be more articulate than the actual article. It is thus safe to say that the News 24 India piece shared by Kejriwal can hardly qualify as journalism. It is surprising that the Chief Minister of Delhi would share such an inarticulate report.<\/p>\n

Moreover, the News 24 India report has used the terms “\u0906\u092e \u091a\u0941\u0928\u093e\u0935\u094b\u0902” or “General Elections” in its title. According to a Business Standard<\/a> article, the current race for the UK Prime Minister is “not a general election but an election within the Conservative Party”. The Conservative Party still holds a majority in the parliament, hence a general election is not necessary. It may or may not be held, depending upon the choice of the new Prime Minister.<\/p>\n

Alt News further analyzed news24india.org to check the authenticity of the news website.<\/p>\n

A look at news24india.org<\/h4>\n

The ‘About’<\/strong><\/a> section of News 24 India<\/a> is indistinct. It consists of a vaguely written paragraph, bereft of the names of the editors or sources of funding, and an email ID. It only states that News 24 India is an independent news portal giving us the latest news on entertainment, politics, sports, and health. Clearly, a lack of transparency is existent between News 24 India and its readers.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

News 24 India primarily covers local news from Uttarakhand. Furthermore, as mentioned earlier, none of the articles contains a name in their respective bylines. All reports are attributed under “By Admin”. There is no information regarding the identity of the admin. It must also be noted that the articles published by News 24 India usually contain three to six lines.<\/p>\n
