New crusader

On May 28 the TOI Chandigarh did a story on the daughter of Lalu Prasad Yadav headlining the assertion that she will fight against female foeticide. TOI talked to Bhannu, daughter of Lalu, during her first visit to Chandigarh after marriage to Chiranjeev, son of Haryana politician Captain Ajay Yadav. The story did not actually quote her saying this anywhere. It got some 80, mostly derisive, readers' comments online. Evidently people did not buy the TOI's news judgement.
