The esteemed Times of India is continuing with it's anti-India propaganda and today a front page story screams Tri-colour at 8am, Separatist flags at 4pm, with huge photos of Lal Chowk showing Indian and Pak flags.
As if he is a god, correspondent Avijit Ghosh claims that the symbolism of this spectacle tells the alienation Kashmir valley is complete.
What kind of reporting is this, why was the Pakistan flag allowed to be hoisted in Lal Chowk. Are Indian forces impotent to stop this kind of behavior. Instead of asking searching questions, the reporter is telling India, look how brave the kashmiris are, they are burning Indian flag and hoisiting Pak flag.
Is this a very tough task, any one even a kid can burn a Pakistani or an Indian flag. With Governor NN Vohra, asking the security men to go slow and be kind to the agitators, it is but natural that kashmiris will be allowed to indulge in such hooliganism.
And if they think that doing this will win them freedom, let them have it. But atleast the TOI should restrain its correspondent and tell him not to suffer from Stockholm syndrome.
Dear Ghosh Sahib you are a reporter and not a Public relations officer of the Hurriyat or Kashmiris. Behave like a mature journalist as it appears that this is your first assignment in this kind of surcharged situation.
While TOI gives front page coverage to Pak flags, it doesnt care to get a story on how the National Flag is being hoisted by the people of Jammu. How thousand of people across the region hoisted the national flag in Jammu despite boycotting the state function.
The Hindustan Times has been a little better compared to it's competitor and has atleast published two three stories from Jammu. Also Barkha Dutt on the edit page has written some sensible things and is good to read, when she suggests that people should come forward to find a solution and delves on the failure of UPA government.
Indian express acts as a two way sword, it has allowed the usual anti-india propganda by Muzamil Jaleel, where he says covertly that the Jammu agitation is communal and speaking through governor NN Vohra's mouth-tells that Jammu is bigoted. However, express has published a small Jammu based piece from Neeraj Santoshi and a good picture by Yogesh Manhas, which speaks about the nationalism and patriotism of the people of Jammu.
CNN-IBN does not allow comments if they are little bit unpalatable and wants everything sugar coated and sweet.
