-> Independent media is stifled by Modiji's government with his decision to take only state sponsored & favored media along with him to foreign visits, so all we here about him these days is how great and visionary the great Modiji is, not unlike the press under authoritarian regimes.

If he took the Private media, you will blame him for bribing them. So, the private media can get their own charter jet and follow him. Modi ji is right in not using tax payer money to fund the highly paid private reporters and Cong(i) supporters.

Nothing new about this. It happened even in the past, i.e. the independent Indian media going abroad with the Indian PM during official visits. When PM MMS went on an official visit to Washington D.C. to meet the US Pres. Obama, he had reporters from the TOI etc. with him traveling to Washington and they wrote articles in their respective papers on the "splendid" performance by the Indian P.M.

Kollam: A youth, stated to be member of pro-CPI(M) youth wing DYFI, was arrested today for posting “derogatory” remarks against Prime Minister Narendra Modi on a social media networking site, police said.

The youth identified as Rajeesh from Allanchery and said to be the member of Democratic Youth Federation of India was taken into custody last night, based on a complaint by local RSS leaders, and arrested today, police said.

He had posted “offencive” statements against Modi on his facebook page, they said.

This is the third instance of arrest of youths in Kerala for derogatory remarks against Modi after he became Prime Minister.
