In defence of narrative journalism , '' The Caravan '' ads a long-term perspective that it says other magazines are not providing . Jose told '' The Hindu '' , Magazines are being unable to take advantage of the seven-day cycle . After watching 200 hours of results in TV , news and analysis of UP elections , what is it that I gain by having five magazines on my desk at the end of the week ? Editorial leadership is not being able to address this core issue , and advertisers can see it . Vinod K. Jose first received attention for his reporting about those accused and those convicted in the 2001 Indian Parliament attack . As a reporter , he covered the attack the day of the attack , but he said his story was not published in 2001 because he had found so many contradictions . In 2005 , Jose , who was at the time editing the '' Free Press '' , was questioned by the Crime Branch in New Delhi about articles that he had written about SAR Geelani , who had been accused and acquitted in the 2001 Indian Parliament attack . In 2006 , Radio Pacifica correspondent Jose conducted an exclusive interview with Mulakat Afzal Guru while the convict awaited his execution inside the Tihar Jail . Later in 2006 , he published a response on behalf of the Society for the Protection of Detainees ' and Prisoners ' Rights , which was seeking clemency for Afzal Guru . His original interview with Afzal was reprinted multiple times between 2006 and 2013 , translated into 11 south Asian languages and other European languages such as Italian , and included in an edited book about the attack
