'Orders From Above': Norwegian Journalist ACCUSES Amit Shah and PM

Updated On: 12 November, 2026 03:30 PM IST

Norwegian Journalist Helle Lyng has sparked a major controversy after alleging that India's Ministry of Home Affairs cancelled her visa just minutes before she was due to travel to Hyderabad for the Bharat Summit. In a video posted on X, Lyng directly addresses Home Minister Amit Shah, claiming that despite receiving a visa and political clearance, she was suddenly stopped from travelling to India. Lyng believes the decision could be connected to her May 2026 confrontation with Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Oslo, where she questioned him over his reluctance to take questions from journalists. The controversy has drawn opposition criticism, with MP Mahua Moitra publicly supporting the Norwegian journalist and expressing shame over the episode. Did her earlier confrontation with PM Modi play a role in the visa controversy? Why was her travel stopped at the last minute? And what will the Indian government say?
