The way the Telugu news channels dealt with Saidabad rape and murder case in an open secret. Particularly, a channel that claims to be a top-rated one left the viewers in shock favouring the state government regarding the news bulletins-which left the viewers to stand by ToliVelugu which relentlessly and fearlessly fought to bring truth into the limelight.
While the other channels took the police and government’s side, ToliVelugu continuously strived to give constant updates from the victim’s family angle. ToliVelugu not only tried to give genuine time-to-time updates but also brought awareness among the viewers.

A poll was conducted on social media on the same topic titled ‘Journalism Gelichindhi-ToliVelugu Nilichindhi’ where 90 percent of the viewers supported ToliVelugu and its news. This turned into a tight slap to all the top-rated news channels.
