Changes headline of articles to create rift between communities

Taslima Nasreen had written an article which aimed to attack Modi government and the Hindutva organisations.

Announces coup by Indian Army. Why?

  1. In 2010, Shekhar closed his company Greenpine Agro after he was accused by former Army head V.K Singh of tax evasion, fraud and being involved in the Commonwealth Games scam. Gupta had not filed tax for many years and he did the same on a single day 18 Jan,2010. He reportedly opted for Early Exit Scheme and closed the firm on 30 August 2010.
  2. In May 2012, he sued the former editor(now deceased) of Outlook, Vinod Mehta. No stranger to sensational comments, according to Mehta in an interview to ‘Open’ Magazine, Shekhar Gupta had deliberately written an article earlier in 2012 to malign the reputation of V.K Singh. Gupta reportedly sued both Open Magazine and Mehta.
