A Meerut court sentenced Ravita and Amardeep to death for the April 2025 murder of her husband Amit Kashyap, after convicting both of murder and criminal conspiracy. Police and prosecutors say the post-mortem showed strangulation, not snakebite, and the sentences need High Court confirmation.
Why it matters: The verdict follows another Meerut death sentence days earlier in the 'blue drum' case, and both cases have drawn wide national attention to crimes involving spouses and lovers.
This matter is before the courts or under investigation. Nazariya reports what was said and alleged; it does not decide guilt or the outcome.
Based on 4 articles read in full. Scores describe each article's framing, not the outlet and not whether it is accurate.
Large outlets read: 3 of 15 (Hindustan Times, Republic, Zee News). Most of India’s largest outlets, including NDTV, India Today, Times of India, Hindustan Times, The Hindu and Indian Express, block our reader in this prototype, so their coverage is missing here. The launch pipeline reads their public feeds.
Coverage broadly agrees on the verdict and the strangulation finding; outlets differ mainly in which investigative details they stress.
No real disagreement between sides in this coverage.
Why: A crime and court-verdict report with no policy, religion-politics, social justice or statism angle; it relays police and court findings without any stance toward government.
Why: A crime and court-verdict report with no policy, identity, or governance angle, so it touches none of the ideology dimensions. Sourcing is police, PTI and a prosecution lawyer, with neutral wording.
Why: A straight crime and court report with no policy, religion, social-justice or statism angle and no government framing, so it is not ideological.
Why: A plain crime and court-verdict report with no policy, identity, security-law or welfare angle. Dramatic wording like 'cold-blooded' is about the crime, not ideology, and there is no government angle.
Critical, Neutral or Supportive, scored separately. It refers to the Union government unless the story is about a state. On the spectrum strip, each dot is an article: its position is the ideology score and its colour is the stance.
If an article would score differently with the parties' roles reversed, that signal is partisanship. It goes into the stance tag, not the ideology score.
High, Medium or Low, based on how much of the article was read, how many clear signals it has, and whether they agree.
Stories with fewer than five articles are marked. A blindspot is a contested story where we found coverage from only one side.
Articles that touch none of the three dimensions, such as a car launch or a match report, carry no ideology score.
This prototype is refreshed by hand (last on 17 Oct, 03:00 IST). At launch:
| Wires and the top 20 outlets | checked every 5 minutes |
| All other outlets | checked every 15 minutes |
| New story | goes up at 3 articles from 2 or more outlets, marked Limited coverage |
| Live stories | new articles added every 15 minutes; summary rewritten at most hourly |
| Home page order | every 15 minutes |
New facts go into a dated update log at the top of the story. New articles carry an “Added” tag. If a note or list changes, the earlier version stays viewable.
A story is Live while coverage arrives, Winding down after about 2 days without new coverage, and Archived after about 7. Nothing is deleted: links never change, archived scores are frozen, and stories stay on their issue pages and in search.
NDTV, India Today, Times of India, Hindustan Times, The Hindu, Indian Express, News18, ABP, Times Now and Mint block the reader used for this prototype, so their articles are missing. Each story shows how many of India’s 15 largest outlets we read. The launch pipeline will read outlets’ public feeds, TV transcripts and Hindi articles.
