NewsClick has countered the allegations against it and said it is an independent website and its “journalistic content is based on the highest standards of the profession”.
In a statement, it denied publishing any news or information at the behest of Chinese entity or authority and said that it does not take directions from Neville Roy Singham regarding the content published on its website.
“All journalistic content ever published on the Newsclick website is available on the internet, and can be seen by anyone. The Special Cell of Delhi Police has not referred to a single article or video that they consider to be Chinese propaganda. Indeed, the line of questioning adopted by the Special Cell of the Delhi Police – regarding reportage on the Delhi riots, the farmers protests etc., all demonstrate the motivated and malicious intent behind the present proceedings,” the statement read.
