Friends,

A major step forward in our movement towards a hate-free society. Earlier this week two incredible things happened. The Supreme Court of India blamed news anchors for fuelling hate. Information and Broadcast Minister Anurag Thakur also took a similar stern view of the mainstream news channels who allow hate on air. 


It's time for all of us to write to the Minister to enlighten us on what steps he will be taking against errant news channels.


Click here and a pre-written message will get sent to the Minister on Twitter, a platform he actively uses everyday. It will take you less than a minute, so please participate. Your voice matters. 


If all 40,000 people who signed this petition tweet the same message, our request will be noticed immediately.


Please continue forwarding this petition to more people who share our anguish on the state of media and society today.


Thank you,

Seema and Shilpashree
