well looking at the news it doesn't seem like it is going to those poor migrant workers who were displaced..an apology doesn't cut it...

currently people are just obsessed with who donated what amount..maybe they need to start asking pertinent question like how will the money be used to help those who are in need..and not spray them with disinfectant land bleach like they are dispensable

I have realized that the international news is quite biased against India. They don’t tell the proper news.

Something that gives you both sides of the story with both the pros and cons without loaded language vs opinion pieces that conflate facts. Most mainstream media has now become the latter (and not just in relation to India but also the States). So for example I recently read an article that tried to assert that these migrant labours affected constituted 60% of the Indian population. That's frankly not true at most its several hundred thousand (mainly an issue in Delhi whilst other areas were able to handle it a bit better). Of course its still a sad story regardless of the number but when they use the wrong facts to establish a point then you start to question the agenda of the author. Also they hardly include how many billions the governments are spending in order to ensure these people have food and shelter. The same with the CAA issue in mainstream newspapers. They conflated the protests in Assam with the religious issue. But that's not the reason the Assamese were protesting, they just don't want anyone to get citizenship and think its a violation of the Assam accord. So again they mix up the facts in order to serve a certain opinion.

Personally, I prefer twitter for news as usually you get both sides of the story fairly quickly to be able to make up your mind.

Tendulkar gave 50 Lakhs.. a petty amount. What a sad personality he is.

I know this already . Dada giving 50 lakh ,Virat 3 cr is shameful...they both are very very rich. Kartik here doesnt even have 10% of what Virat ,Dada have...still gave 1 cr. Dada,Virat deserve to be shamed. Dhoni , Rohit are still mum lol.

Virat and Anuksha have not announced the money they gave. How did you even assume how much they donated. Some people are assuming virat donated 50 crs and some announced he donated 3 crs only. I am so confused
