PCI expresses concern over arrest of Ghaziabad journalist

The Press Club of India is concerned about the arrest of journalist Imran Khan in Uttar Pradesh for his coverage of an Opposition leader’s press conference during the Lok Sabha election earlier this year. The arrest came months after the election, following a complaint from a local MP. The PCI believes that targeting journalists has become a disturbing trend and is calling on the Uttar Pradesh government to educate police personnel about the role of journalists.
