Great! Many congratulations, Sidhant, for carrying out this investigation—something many #GodiMedia journalists would be reluctant to do, or would instead try to distort in order to misinform the public.
More power to you for speaking truth to power.
This is a request to my friends in the media and to the many journalists who have reached out to me.
Please understand that my schedule is currently quite packed, and I am unfortunately not available for interviews or video calls today or tomorrow.
I genuinely appreciate the interest this issue has received, and I would love to continue helping media organizations bring attention to it. That has been my goal from the beginning.
However, it is becoming difficult for me to accommodate the volume of interview requests and calls I am receiving. I would greatly appreciate it if you could refrain from calling multiple times in a day. If you'd like to get in touch, please send me a text message instead. It becomes quite exhausting to manage hundreds of phone calls while also trying to keep up with my regular responsibilities.
For anyone looking to understand the issue in detail, I encourage you to read the blog linked below. I have documented the matter as comprehensively as possible, including all relevant sources and references at the end. Most questions I receive are already addressed there.

I am always happy to help journalists over text whenever possible, and many journalists who have interacted with me can attest to that. If there are specific questions that remain unanswered after reading the blog, feel free to reach out.
(however, tomorrow text might also be difficult)
Thank you for your understanding and for your interest in covering this issue responsibly.

Anger boiled over in a village in Uttar Pradesh’s Jhansi district after residents alleged that a newly repaired road was built using substandard materials. In a dramatic protest caught on video, villagers were seen digging up the road surface with their bare hands to demonstrate what they claimed was poor construction quality.The incident took place between Barmaain and Kakarbai villages under Garotha tehsil in Jhansi district. The nearly 6-kilometre-long road is reportedly being repaired at a cost of several lakhs of rupees.
Watch in for more details.

This is stupid credentialist nonsense. Debate Sai Deepak if you have the IQ. Sai Deepak makes the compelling argument that leftist agenda driven historians have systematically lied about our history and his argument must be debated on its merits.
People who flaunt paper credentials like a shield are useless. I will never bow to anyone's academic credentials nor will I ever flaunt mine.
