Podcast Controversy and Fake Narratives

Hello, greetings. I’m Neha Singh Rathore, The Casual Talk Podcast Channel

host.

I’m about to show you something.

This poster is being rapidly circulated on social media.

It says that Swatantra Bharadwaj called sixty-six

times and kept crying, saying,

“Podcast

delete it, sister,” but I didn’t delete it. On one side is Swatantra

Bharadwaj’s photo on the poster, and on the other side is mine.

And below it says that Swatantra Bharadwaj was sent to jail by Nisachi Mami

through a podcast. So first of all, let me tell everyone that

neither in writing nor verbally, on my social media

platform or on any media channel, have I made this kind

of comment. This is fake

propaganda, a fake narrative being spread against me. When I did

Swatantra Bharadwaj’s

podcast, before the podcast was shot,

before the podcast was shot

Later, we asked Swatantra whenever we shoot a video

Even once the video is edited, we ask every guest if

anything needs editing, anything

needs cutting, please let us know because it takes effort. Those who make videos, who

do podcasts, or conduct interviews know how much effort goes into a video.

But Swatantra did not raise any such objection

Gone. Nor did they say that you should have the video filtered or not. They

only said, upload it as you shot it. We have no objection, no problem

with it. We uploaded the video as it was. But this kind of

fake narrative they are creating by making posters and setting up all these big, prominent

pages is very wrong. There has been no such comment from my side,

and this matter's—honorable

It's in court, before the judiciary, so I

don't want to make any further comments

on it.
