News in Numbers: India ranks 138 on World’s Press Freedom Index

138

What is it? India’s ranking, according to the 2018 World’s Press Freedom Index, out of 180 countries.



Why is it important? Its ranking dropped two places from 2017, which is attributed to the “deadly threat from Modi’s nationalism”, a reference to Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The report said Hindu nationalists are trying to purge all kinds of ‘anti-national’ thought from the national debate, which is resulting in an increase of self-censorship by media and that journalists are targeted by online smear campaigns.

Tell me more: The report added that at least three journalists were killed in 2017 were targeted in connection with their work. This includes the murder of journalist and activist Gauri Lankesh, who was shot dead outside her residence in Bengaluru in September 2017.
