We, the undersigned, are concerned about the reports of threats and intimidation to Sandhya Ravishankar. She has published a series of articles on the sand mining mafia in Tamil Nadu as part of her investigative work undertaken over four years.Freedom of press is a Constitutionally guaranteed fundamental right (Art. 19) and it is the collective duty of citizens and authorities to uphold the right. The threats to Sandhya indicate attempts to silence her and the trolls have been hurling gender‐based slurs. We demand action must be taken against those threatening her, so that such intimidation is discouraged.
