Three local journalists from Kanpur have been accused of public mischief and criminal intimidation in an FIR filed against them for airing a news report on school children allegedly performing in biting cold conditions without winter wear at a government function.
The FIR lodged by a Basic Shiksha Adhikari, an official who takes care of primary education in government schools, said the journalists were not even present at the event and also accused the accused of threatening him.
Govt officials claim that the children were made to remove their winter clothes only for the duration of their yoga performance and that video was shared with malafide intention.
