BBC and India
BBC with its flawed independence & honesty is overdue for a hair cut and India is about to give it to it. Its independence is faulty. It is meant to embarrass governments without any rhyme or reason. That includes the BBC documentary on elected leader Modi on the 2002 Gujarat riots. This matter was examined by the Indian Supreme Court and buried as a faulty charge with no basis. Hence why did BBC decide to open it?
I quote a piece from the FirstPost
‘A mixture of many elements abroad are behind this campaign: A colonial mindset that still believes in the right to monitor India’s internal affairs; long-standing political biases that continue to colour views on India’s internal and external affairs; local pro-Pakistan lobbies in the UK using their electoral clout in several marginal constituencies to draw attention to Kashmir, human rights issues, etc; pro-Khalistani lobbies that benefit from political clout, collusions from elements in the bureaucracy and the intelligence agencies to further their separatist agenda.’
In democratic countries tolerance levels may be high, but a tipping point can also be reached

Now that the issue of BBC honesty has been opened, let's look at it in a little more detail. Is the BBC honest enough to take a closer look at the wretched battle between two princes and the British royal family? One of them is going to be the future king hence the two brothers fist fight is worth examining in a documentary.
The BBC has been in Pakistan for as long as they have been in India. Pakistan went from worst to worst and it is now on the brink of bankruptcy. So that's something the BBC should look at as a critical documentary. No editorial analysis has been done on this issue. And also, what about a grave programming error which Google made in re-inventing itself with Artificial Intelligence. They lost $100 billion in just the first two days. Shouldn't an independent-minded BBC examine the loss of this shareholder?
As the author of the FirstPost said earlier, this is the colonial mentality and longstanding political prejudices, all encouraged by the British elite are to blame. They hate independent minded Modi, who has accelerated Indian growth, GDP to exceed the British GDP and will double it in 5/7 years. That is not sitting well with the British elite. They want him to be removed by hook or crook. This time the hook and crook is the BBC.
With regard to the BBC, the financial structure should be reviewed. They borrowed money from China to finance themselves and fund Modi type documentary etc.
