Mathew Samuel is a former managing editor of the Indian news magazine ''Tehelka''. He is one of the members of the magazine, and as a special correspondent there, he instigated Tehelka's biggest corruption investigation, Operation West End. This sting operation led to the resignation of four senior ministers of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) and nearly brought down the BJP-led national government in 2001. The top politicians and officials caught in the sting were later convicted by the court of law. His YouTube channel was banned in India as on 9th May 2025. As of 6th June 2025 his YouTube channel is working for the past 1 week. We are not aware of the reasons of revoking the ban on his channel.
