As some trollers called Barkha a ‘Pakistani stooge’, it becomes relevant to recall that the journalist had shot to fame after her fearless coverage of Kargil war in 1999. She went ahead to become the Group Editor of NDTV. Dutt, who received many national and international awards, including the Padma Shri, India’s fourth-highest civilian honour, stepped down as NDTV’s group editor last year.
