==Controversial Interviews==


On 13th August 2013 Ms Razdan interviewed British MP Barry Gardiner in relation to the latter's decision to invite Mr Narendra Modi to the House of Commons. Many analysts believe that interview<ref>http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k-ePJ7KIEkY</ref> was a classic example for prejudice taking over objective journalism as it appears that Ms Razdan was acting unethically in going out of her way to convince the British MP to not invite Mr Modi. Acting in a partisan way. This is rather unacceptable from a journalist that too reports for a well known channel.
