New Delhi (Sputnik): Several questions have been raised on foreign media outlets’ coverage, including the BBC, on news reports pertaining to the tense situation and protests in India’s restive state of Jammu and Kashmir since New Delhi decided to revoke the state’s special status.

Indian Twitter users are calling for ban on British Public Service Broadcaster BBC for allegedly showing misleading news reports, specifically pertaining to Hindus and Muslims and the sensitive issue of Jammu and Kashmir.

Hashtag #BanBBC is trending with a constantly increasing number of mentions on the micro-blogging platform.

Netizens are slamming it for “irresponsible” reporting while sharing screenshots of news reports that underline “anti-India propaganda”.
