Journalist Divya Srivastava, who pressed Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath for answers to her questions, has faced online threats and harassment. At a press conference recently held in Lucknow, she had objected to the chief minister leaving without answering questions. Her video of the exchange went viral on social media, after which she was subjected to trolling, threats and abusive language.

In the video, the journalist can be heard repeatedly telling CM Yogi, “Chief Minister ji, please answer the question. This is a press conference. Chief Minister ji, this is a violation of the press.”

The video shows CM Yogi walking out of the press conference room without looking at her while she is speaking. Divya then says, “If you don’t answer questions at a press conference, then why call us here at all? Have we been called only to listen to what you have to say?”

Divya faced trolling, particularly from Hindutva supporters. Some mocked her, saying that before demanding answers she should first clarify what question she had actually asked CM Yogi. Others alleged that she had been sent by opposition leaders to tarnish the chief minister’s image. Divya denied these allegations.
