The Hindu’s Vijaita Singh Says “Read News Written By Journalists Not Party Pracharaks” While Her Chairman N Ram Inaugurates CPI-M Exhibitions

A social media post by leftist mouthpiece The Hindu has triggered widespread discussion after users accused the publication of hypocrisy regarding political neutrality.

The controversy began when The Hindu’s official X handle released a promotional video stating, “When gossip is dressed up as news, it stops being journalism. Read, hear, and share news written by journalists.”

Soon after, The Hindu’s senior ‘journalist’ Vijaita Singh reshared the post with the caption, “Read news written by journalists, not party pracharaks.”

Her remark drew sharp criticism from netizens, who accused the publication of partisanship.

Several users pointed out that the newspaper’s former Editor-in-Chief and current Director of The Hindu Publishing Group has been seen participating in events organized by communist-affiliated groups and political figures.

Many questioned the credibility of The Hindu’s claim to neutrality, seemingly asking her who the real party pracharak was now.

It is noteworthy that over the years, The Hindu has drawn sustained criticism for functioning as a de facto mouthpiece of the Communist Party and a consistent amplifier of Chinese state narratives. Its editorial choices frequently echo Beijing’s geopolitical messaging while undermining India’s sovereignty, military, and foreign policy.

From publishing distorted maps of India and false defence reports to glorifying the Chinese Communist Party’s centenary and running paid Chinese advertorials, the newspaper has repeatedly aligned with China’s interests. Its coverage of the Galwan clash, BRI projects, and LAC tensions routinely foregrounded Beijing’s perspective while sidelining India’s.

By normalizing Chinese propaganda, publishing sympathetic pieces on the CPC’s “achievements,” and hosting the Chinese Ambassador at its Chennai office, The Hindu has positioned itself less as an independent Indian publication and more as a reliable amplifier of left-wing and Chinese state viewpoints.
