BBC defends its news coverage of Kashmir

The BBC has hit back at reports that its news coverage of recent developments in Kashmir has been biased.

The BBC has been accused that its news reporting has been inaccurate and misleading. It received criticism from the Right-wing ecosystems, particularly the widely circulated footage of protests in Soura, Srinagar, on Friday, according to The Telegraph India.

In a statement issued by the BBC, it denied the allegations it faces. It said, “The BBC stands by its journalism and we strongly refute any claims that we have misrepresented events in KAshmir. We are covering the situation impartially and accurately. Like other broadcasters, we are currently operating under severe restrictions in Kashmir but we will continue to report what is happening.”
