Anyone who never respect sovereignty of India or indian Teretories he or she only belong to jail no matter how he is, writer, poet, dr, engineer, scientists etc.

[@santabanta8173]

Hitler received awards too, Lance Armstrong received awards too...... did that make them bulletproof from prosecution?

[@srinuvasu7411]

Truth always takes time to come out.....lets wait who is correct....

[@sk-be8tc]

"We don't know whether they will take action against her" whole story collapsed right there.If someone says paris is not part of france you would agree and help for its independence I guess.No wonder people reject the msm and choose to become more and more right wing even in France.

[@maneeshacharya]

There is no difference between her and a khalistani

[@radhika00240]

She is worst like isis.

[@Seevawonderloaf]

She’s worse bc she has undue power with the leftists who view her as a friend. It’s so weird. How could one hate their nation to this extent?

[@petepotr4078]

0:40 Thailand has more urgent issues. Poverty??

[@pluribus_unum]

When the truth is your enemy, you have no moral high ground beneath you.

[@sandeepsandhu4286]

Let's correct that , when " narrative" ( with absolute ignorance of facts )is your enemy , you have no moral high grounds beneath you... That's what arundity Roy does !!

[@arinddas24]

Roy made a carrier out of it, she is only loyal to her patron. Not to any Indian people or history.

[@68sanket]

No body celebrate arundhati roy in india except few wokes 😂.... Government has done good job by booking her under UAPA.... freedom of expression dosent mean doing anti state activities...

[@reginafefifofina]

Alternative to being Woke is sleep walking 😴 or 🧟‍♂️ or 🐏

[@radhika00240]

They are shameless.

[@radhika00240]

Shameless French

[@ChittaRanjansingha-xb8re]

democratic back-sliding? are you sure ??

[@arinddas24]

France24, please keep her in France. People do debate on policies across different parties, but she doesn’t even believe in the sovereignty of her mother land. Her intimacy with the killer of Kashmiri, standing for the Pakistani narrative, even before modi government, speaks every thing about her intention. Unlike Indian women, her greed is exceptionally high, made a freaking career, all for few awards and foreign trips. Nobody knows her in India

[@IndianBouyz]

France by now should fix its own financial crisis

[@sanjaysaxena5236]

Biased and prejudiced against Modi. There is no democratic backsliding! India is going to its roots… and it is a wonderful thing!

[@marcgglo9128]

Go Arundhati. I have nothing but love and respect for such a beautiful person. When you care more about people rather than your so called country. India torturing Kashmiris and labeling them terrorists and calling it an integral part of India. Kashmir belongs to Kashmiri people and you can not force them to live with someone who kills and tortures them.

[@sanjaysaxena5236]

Modi is not humbled, he will be even more powerful… and we want him to be strong… shame on one side and biased coverage !!

[@shaaktheei]

What a selective journalism

[@piyushshukla6677]

Fake propaganda

[@emonchowdhury8592]

cryyyyyyyyyu

[@weaponxxx8363]

Who is alpa shah...why she is yapping without any knowledge about anything about india...yeah there is a problem but she is just bluffing here...in case of arundhati she deserved this no tolerance policy on Kashmir...and i am against modi😅

[@georgekoshy6253]

fascism has taken roots in India under RSS and BJP combine

[@SpiritualSeeker-oq5pt]

rice convert black complexion george

[@rajunaik26]

okay pig

[@GZ-ASSASSIN]

France- 24 please take her in to your country.

[@budu240]
