Coastal & Mining Scams: Eco-Reporters Facing Mafias
Investigative journalists covering illegal sand mining, deforestation, and coastal land grabs in rural India are facing escalating violence from deeply entrenched local mafias. Unlike urban reporters, these grassroots environmental journalists often operate without any institutional backing, facing daily death threats, abductions, and malicious legal suits.
The Bharat Media Association stands fiercely alongside these brave eco-reporters. We demand immediate, specialized police protection protocols for rural journalists who risk their lives to protect India’s rapidly depleting natural resources from unchecked corporate corruption.
