UAE Princess calls Zee News Anchor Sudhir Chaudhry 'terrorist'
Lashes out at organisers for inviting him to UAE for event
New Delhi: UAE princess Hend bint Faisal Al Qasim often known for her bold stances on Islamophobic content, posts, and hate-mongers against Islam, has lashed out at an organizer for inviting Zee News anchor and Editor-in-Chief Sudhir Chaudhry to UAE for an event.
The princess of the Royal Qasimi family of Sharjah lashed out at the organizer for inviting Chaudhry despite his role in promoting Islamophobia through his TV shows.
Hend went on to address Chaudhary as a “terrorist” while reminding the event organizer how the controversial TV anchor had been defaming Islam and Muslims through his debate shows.
“How dare you invite an Islamophobe to my peaceful country?” she wrote in one of her tweets on Saturday.
“In 2019 & 2020, Sudhir Chaudhry ran shows on Zee News where he spewed venom against Muslims for leading anti-citizenship protests. He ran fake stories, targeting Muslim students and women for leading the citizenship protest in Shaheen Bagh, New Delhi & other parts of the country.” She further added.
She then added, “Sudhir Chaudhary is a Hindu rightwing anchor known for his deeply Islamophobic shows that target India’s 200 million Muslims. Many of his prime time shows have directly contributed to real-world violence against Muslims across the country.”
She also tagged the Institute of Chartered Accountants of India to ask, “Why are you bringing an intolerant terrorist to the UAE?!”
Recently, Chaudhry had visited Dubai for the coverage of the famed EXPO-2020 prompting several people to call upon the UAE rulers to ban his entry into UAE.
Chaudhry is a part of a section of media personalities often referred to as “Godi Media” and lapdogs of the PM Modi-led BJP government and has widely been criticized for fuelling hatred against Muslims in India. He had led a campaign to defame Indian Muslims by blaming them for spreading coronavirus in 2020. Several Indian high courts later concluded that blaming the members of the Tablighi Jamaat for the spread of the virus was part of propaganda.
