The Indian Express

On 19th October, The Indian Express article headlined, "How saffron groups are ‘pushing out’ non-Hindus of Navratri events", cherry-picks a few incidents of confrontations and announcements at Navratri Garba events in Gujarat to weave a narrative that there is a systematic "saffron" campaign of exclusion against Muslims that contradicts the UNESCO's recognition of Garba as inclusive. 

Kuber demanded government intervention over VHP’s ban on Muslim entry into Navaratri events.

The original headline was misleading because it did not clearly mention the denominator behind the 91% figure.

Floral showers by state officials only signify respect and are cultural symbolism; this gesture is deification of Kanwariyas.

While 'The Indian Express' has been able to prove nothing, it did win the narrative war temporarily. Their clickbait headline convinced amateur political enthusiasts that a scandal exists where it doesn't.

Vivek Tankha said that he urged Sonam Wangchuk to end the fast due to concerns of his health, and he was not acting on behalf of the central govt, as the article implies.
