Haven't seen the doco yet, but heard an interview on ABC's Radio National with the director Vinay Shukla. A must-see for anyone who cares for those resisting the hastening demise of independent media in India.
Screening of #whilewewatched, a #documentary on the indomitable @ravishndtv. The hall was packed and the response overwhelming. I hope viewers in India are able to watch this soon. There are more screenings in #London. Pls watch! Met the lovely @RichaChadha & many friends 😍🤩

This is shockingly sad news. An immense loss for development economics. It is also personal for many of us who worked with him. Learnt a lot from him. The integrity, dedication and commitment that @MartinRavallion brought to his scholarship and research was unparalleled.
