Tribune Editor Harish Khare Puts in His Papers - The Wire

Though he stated no reasons, sources in the newspaper told The Wire that the interventionism of the trustees in the face of growing pressure from the government on the Aadhaar story and other issues had likely prompted Khare to bow out.

He has reportedly offered to serve out the rest of his three-year term so that trustees have time to search for a replacement. The trust, however, has indicated that he leave immediately.
 
Government denies The Tribune breach and refuses to withdraw FIR against journalist
This raises an important question – why is the governmnent refusing to withdraw the FIR against the journalists and newspapers, given that there is no breach according to the government? Surely one does not file cases against people for crimes that did not happen? That such an action has been taken against a journalist and news publication as a consequence of reporting they have done definitely implies that the government would punish specific kinds of reporting.
