  1. I, aged about 59 only recently subscribed to your chànnel in appreciation to the analytical and non polarised view on each and every news I read and watched. But regarding the lynch at Palgarh I see some fishy angle in your report as the Sahu’s were defined as people from Mumbai and not as sadhus. Now request you to change your attitude. Everybody knows the incident happened at a Muslim dominated area and we the people are not fools as Uddav to believe the Palgarh people stopped the car and were lynching them without enqury at all. Kindly make a change in your attitude otherwise people like me will go for some other media for genuine reports
