The Print’s founder and Editor-in-Chief Shekhar Gupta shared the latest column of Yadav Wednesday evening.
Now, here comes the interesting part.
The Print’s columnist Abhijit Iyer-Mitra has written a sexually loaded tweet in June last year. Social media uproar followed.
Result? Iyer-Mitra was dropped as a columnist at ThePrint.
He is known for his anti-Left views.
Yadav has been trying hard to deflect any accountability for misdeeds in the farmers’ protest.
The farmers protesting at Delhi border had indulged in massive rioting in Delhi on January 26. Yadav, who has been representing the protesting farmers, distanced himself from riots.
