She said "They tell me I'm creating a law and order problem! How brilliant is that I am creating a law and order problem in my own home! Brilliant job". Furthermore revathi also alleged that despite not having a warrant or a notice, the police personnel demanded that she accompany them to the police station, even though she informed them that she had to send her child to school, and also had a doctor's appointment. She added "Cops have been tripled at my house. Arresting a journalist without a warrant is the top priority of the government right now”.



Moreover both revathi and Ravi Prakash have claimed that the clampdown is part of efforts being taken by the state government to curb editorial independence of media outlets which have been critical of the ruling party and perhaps Ravi Prakash is the founder of MoJo TV.
