Allegations of bias against the Jagran group and its papers have been raised since it was censured in 1990 by the Press Council of India for inflammatory content following the demolition of the Babri Masjid. One of the examples cited of such reporting involved reports of persons killed by the police; while most papers put the number based on information received at 32, Dainik Jagran reported it as 300 deaths. These reports coincided with the Dainik Jagran's expansion from reporting within Uttar Pradesh to outside the state as well, with a Delhi edition launched in 1990. Dainik Jagran has consistently advocated for the construction of the Ram Mandir on the ground where the Babri Masjid was demolished, which is also a political stance adopted by the Bharatiya Janata Party. In 2010, Dainik Jagran was one of two newspapers (in addition to Dainik Bhaskar) that was flagged by the Press Council of India for carrying paid news. In 2017, Dainik Jagran published an exit poll favouring the Bharatiya Janata Party before the results of the Uttar Pradesh state election results were declared in 2017, which violated the Election Commission of India's regulations that prohibit the publication of exit polls before election results are declared. Following this, the Election Commission ordered the Uttar Pradesh police to register a case against the editor of the Dainik Jagran for violating the Representation of People's Act and the Indian Penal Code. The editor, Sanjay Gupta, who was also the CEO of the Jagran Group CEO stated to The Indian Express that the poll was carried by their advertising department, i.e. it had been posted for compensation to the group. The published poll was attributed to "RDI" and later, officials from an entity called the Resource Development International (I) Private Limited were also listed by the Election Commission of India as having violated election laws. Resource Development International (I) Private Limited and one other organisation engaged in electoral research in India bearing the same abbreviation of 'RDI' both denied involvement in preparing the exit poll. The second organization named RDI is run by Devendra Kumar, an affiliate of the Bharatiya Janata Party. Following the registration of First Information Reports, police raided Dainik Jagran's offices and the homes of some employees, and arrested their online editor, Shekhar Tripathi. He was later released on bail. In relation to the exit poll publication as well as multiple editorial posts supporting the Bharatiya Janata Party, the Jagran Prakashan publications, including Dainik Jagran and its English equivalent, Jagran Josh, have been criticised by media watchdog Newslaundry, news website DailyO, and news magazine Caravan for carrying one-sided coverage supporting the Bharatiya Janata Party and its policies while in government, particularly in the state of Uttar Pradesh, where the company sent vans bearing the Dainik Jagran logo to support and conduct publicity on behalf of the Uttar Pradesh Government led by Adityanath. Both, Caravan and Newslaundry have pointed to the doubling of advertisement revenue from government sources since the Bharatiya Janata Party formed the government at the Center as being linked with increasing pro-government content in Jagran's English, Hindu and Urdu publications. In 2018, investigative journalism website Cobrapost published videos purporting to show that employees of several news organisations, including from the Jagran Group, were willing to promote political and religious content relating to Hindutva and the Bharatiya Janata Party in exchange for compensation. Jagran Group CEO Sanjay Gupta denied the allegations, stating that the Jagran Group employee identified in the videos did not have the authority to make any such commitments on behalf of the Group. In July 2020, Gupta was added to the board of Prasar Bharati, India's public broadcasting body.
