Would Times Now Drag on the Lalitgate till Start of Monsoon Session ?

 Lalit Kumar Modi  ✔@LalitKModi Media owners must realize that they all came to me for favors too. Or to politicians or to my friends.
Would Times Now drag on the Lalitgate for another three weeks? Would Lalitgate in the coming monsoon session of the Parliament  be the biggest ever victory for the Times Group? But what would it cost to the Times?

Insiders reveal that Prime Minister Narendra Modi was of the view that a section of  media has been exaggerating facts in Lalit gate with a motive to malign  the image of his government. The PM also feels that Congress has connived with a media outlet in a bid to disrupt the forthcoming monsoon session of the Parliament.  

Modi seems to be neither happy with his ‘spin masters’  who failed to contain the high decibel news channels nor he was at ease with the Jains, the owners of the Bennett and Coleman Company which owns Times Now, the most vociferous channel on Lalitgate .

Though Mr Modi has not yet shared his mind over the ongoing controversy with his Cabinet colleagues or top secretaries but his body language has given a clear signal to his lieutenants. According to a close aide of Modi , the Finance Ministry is busy gathering data on owners of two channels- News X and Times Now . 

Both the channels have  launched a nonstop media war against  Modi’s Cabinet as well as BJP’s government in Rajasthan. “ BJP leadership including Amit Shah was of the view that on Sushma front  both the channels exaggerated certain facts and carried deliberate news items to tarnish government’s image.  Shah has taken the so called biased coverage quite personally,” said a BJP MP close to Amit Shah.” 

You don’t know Shah and Modi. If both are convinced that someone is playing the mischief and it has a hidden agenda than the duo would take a subtle way to settle the score. Look what happened to Advani. What happened to bureaucrats, the Sharma brothers of Gujarat? Where is Shashi Ruia now ? Where is Sanjay Joshi of RSS ? ” he added.

Now only on one count Vineet Jain can avoid the inevitable. In case Times Now is pursuing the agenda against  the government  at the behest of someone in the government, he may survive another day.
