“Why are you violating that code and”

2014, "Narendra Modi on the Role of NDTV during the 2002 Riots", 2014
Context: Since Rajdeep Sardesai was among the leading reporters covering the disturbances, I phoned him to say, "I will have to put a temporary ban on your channel if you continue with the provocative coverage. There is a well-established regulation that media should not name communities during communal riots nor identify a damaged place[s] as a mandir or masjid. Why are you violating that code and [established] protocol about not naming communities or identifying places [... ] of worship? You are going against established norms."
