The moment it seemed that Ashok Gehlot govt will sail through safely you getting so angry at RG. Strange. All of India can see only one thing, that only RG has the courage and conviction to fight RSS. Without him we'd be a theocratic autocracy ruled by RSS brotherhood.

A anchor’s blind love for his master and desire to peddle his propaganda is driving @IndiaToday to doom. @rahulkanwal has not missed a single opportunity to prove his Modi-Bhakti. The man is not cut out for journalism. All of India can see this, except @IndiaToday and he himself. https://t.co/clcgn9Nzsi

If anyone needed proof of your biases & hidden agendas it’s this tweet. You’re no journalist. Your a paid muppet spouting planted lines. Pray, for the sake of your befuddled followers, draw for us the link beteeen Rahul Gandhi and Mr Pilot’s falling out with Mr Gehlot?

A dog's blind love for his father and refusal to see reality is driving journalism to societal doom. @rahulkanwal has not missed a single opportunity to prove his incompetence. The man is not cut out for journalism. All of India can see this, except for modi and amit shah himself

This man is a blot on journalism. Much worse than Arnab because while Arnab has long shed any pretence, he continues to masquerade.

Bleats like a sheep in front of BJP, and roars with courageous takes on opposition.
You are so right.

As Rahul Gandhi does not fulfill two criterias to be a good polotician.
1) A degree in Entire political science
2) 56 inch chest
It's because you think that men like Modi & Shah with a history of accusations in riots, murder, snooping etc are cut out for Politics, India is here today.

India deserves better politics than Modi
India deserves better media than Modia
Isn't this too blunt an opinion for a journalist?

Do your job of reporting the news. Not your views.

This questioning of opposition is the latest trend of Godi media on behalf of their masters.
Dare to show mirror to the Govt, Modi, Shah and BJP; the truth; let us see that.
Also, just get one Press Conference done by Modi!
Donno about Rahul Gandhi but Rahul Kanwal is not cut for good journalism. If Sachin Pilot obsessed with dream to become CM overtures BJP opposed to ideology of party that made him DyCM how Rahul Gandhi comes in picture? But you drag his name as you get paid for it.

Does this Paid News Anchor feel pride in getting insulted by showing fake news and showing his faith to his Incompetent Master's ??
— Akshay Khomane (@akshaykhomane) July 13, 2020
Did he ever quest to Mo-Shah abt their incompetency in handling any of the COVID-19 Migrant Issue or Indo-Border Issue in the last few months ?
You have freedom to say whatever you want to only against Rahul Gandhi.
— Bhausaheb Ajabe (@BhausahebAjabe) July 13, 2020
Dare you say a word against Modi-Shah and you will lose your job!
This is your “courageous” journalism!
And by the way nobody(not even @IndiaToday) takes you seriously except you!
Do you think Modi is competent? If yes then you are living in the fool's paradise.

I dare you rahul, do you have the guts to question Amit shah over his use of ED, IT dep for this personal use ?

All of india can see this except paid jurnos like you !
Find someone who loves you as much as Rahul Kanwal loves Feku.
— Srivatsa (@srivatsayb) July 13, 2020
His blind love has made him totally forget he is a journalist. Rahul Kanwal is the most disappointed man in India today as Rajasthan Govt remains stable.
