MEA made urgent late evening deployments to its Covid Cell as late as May 01. This was 24 hours after the Philippines Embassy sought help from Indian Youth Congress for delivery of oxygen cylinders. In response, the MEA launched a bitter Twitter dogfight against the opposition for supplying cylinders to the embassy.
We are facing a critical moment. While we struggle to look for funds to pay our journalists, our crisis deepened after the tax authorities revoked our non-profit status last month, claiming that journalism does not serve a public purpose.
This decision threatens our ability to fund fearless, investigative reporting.
But we stand by our belief: that journalism, when done right, is a vital public service for our democracy, one that holds power to account.
Now, more than ever, we need your support. If you believe journalism is a public good, stand with us. Every contribution matters. Help keep our independent reporting alive.
