Dear Ms. Seema

I tried to post following comments but something went wrong. My comments are as follows, you may advice to your editor to get publish it along with your article. Have a nice time!
Good Analysis! I am inclined to agree with you, but needs placing some points in right the perspective to be neutral per se, i.e. neutral in terms of men and matter, putting matters first than men in politics, policies over politics or nationalism (pseudo versus in reality) versus anarchy.
  
There are at least three points that this article articulates which draw attention to.
 
Firstly, media's role in supporting each and every thing that NaMo as Pm does. Indeed, observations are very correct. Subash Chandra's Zee is anti, Congress and Pro-NaMo not pro-BJP. When Jairam Ramesh said toilets as more important than temples, Zee started non-tireless campaign against him. But when same issue raised by NaMo, zee tv has mad all praise for him, as if NaMo was first to invent, forgetting the facts that Jairam was talking about Total Sanitation Campaign which was one of 16 flagship projects of INC then in power. That is, Zee has blind support to NaMo as PM; certainly for aspirations for gains, recognitions of Padma awards, positions as well as profit motive, without tax evasion charges or dragging his empire into tax evasion net. Zee Tv and its all anchors wore pro-Namo spectacles. Therefore, one must expect impartial reporting or DNA from Zee.   
 
Second, each of tv channels have political orientation and support to the one or other political party, therefore almost all channels are not impartial or neutral to any issue or debate. Last general elections to Lok Sabha were not won by NaMo alone by his so called miracle speeches (which indeed lack substance and knowledge of subject he often spoke of) but it was winning of mass media of both digital and print media that unleashed anti-Congress and anti-NaMo parties through 24x7 propaganda. There was debates not on the subjects but pro-NaMo praise. Those who were oppose to NaMo were subject to verbal attack as well as use of abusive. This trend is continued till today and may continue till next general elections. This is bad for democracy and anti-ethical reporting. Media must impartially put forward neutral view and not impose upon the viewers channels' views through their anchors.
 
Finally, freedom of speech granted under Article 19(1) is not an absolute right but is subjected to "reasonable restriction". Nationalism and patriotism have blurred boundaries but are inculcated since the childhood and requires it to be cherished. The nationalism means irrespective its good or bad aspects. Both nationalism and patriotism does not requires certifications either from ruling party or opposition parties, or justification or denounces from anyone, least at least from tv channels owners or anchors who are paid employees of tv owners and re bound to do, say or argue as their bosses wants them, for the sake of continue earning salary. Students are bound to be distracted to ideologies unless are students at formative age are taught as to what is rights from wrong otherwise it would lead to indoctrination of thoughts or ideologies, as could one see in terrorist, criminals, anti-nationals, etc. People ought to differ as no two are identical or no two ideologies are same but neither this is not a time nor universities a place of experiment. No nationalist or patriotic person would accept others' point of view. Also studies and debates of ideologies over tv channels about religions, nationalism, pro-religions differ from crime as defined under the laws of land. The punishment according to law need evidence and it is the duty entrusted to police, certainly media trial and passing judgment on nationalism at least pseudo-nationalism as seen since last few years is nothing but as imposing views of tv channel owners over all others. As do politicians have their own agenda so have tv channels, as well anti-nationals which do try to infiltrate to institutions where youth in large number are easily found and are treated like a reserve army to proliferate ideologies and tap their talent and energy for furtherance of their intentions.

Re: [IAC#RG] from a to x to zee

After reading this mail chain, I am amused that the writers did not notice the same phenomenon in much bigger scale when UPA was ruling at the Center. This reminds me of the saying ' what is good for the goose is good for the gander'!!!

Re: [IAC#RG] A PANCHANAMA OF BJP’s FOUR YEARS IN OFFICE

Well said Mr Malhotra,but who is responsible for the accumulated mess? Obviously,the party which ruled this country for the longest period.They paid little attention to the problems you have mentioned and remained busy in looting the citizens all through.The latest is the loot of citizen's hard earned money from state owned Banks,which runs in to lakhs of carors.Most of these banks have become sick.This has happened in UPA II,before Modi came in as P.M.

For that matter even RSS, which is said to be a social and not a political organisation, is not known to work in an organised way towards elimination of these ills. Each of these political parties and their affiliated "social organisations" come forward to give volunteers for electioneering, support for Reservations but do not work towards elimination of these ills that are pulling back our society.

[IAC#RG] GOA CIC PRASHANT TENDOLKAR’S ILLEGAL RED BEACON LANDS IN HIGH COURT

GOA CIC PRASHANT TENDOLKAR'S ILLEGAL RED BEACON LANDS IN HIGH COURT

 

A contempt of Court petition has today been filed before the Bombay High Court at Goa over the illegal use of the red beacon by Goa's Chief Information Commissioner (CIC) Prashant Prabhu Tendolkar.

 

The letter petition was mentioned today before a Division Bench comprising of Justice F.M.Reis and Justice K.L.Wadane who agreed to examine the petition.

 

CIC Prashant Tendolkar continues to illegally use the red beacon in rank violation of the Supreme Court order. The rule of law has to prevail and the CIC cannot be high- handedly using a perk and privilege he is not entitled to.  CIC Prashant Tendolkar is illegally and blatantly using the red beacon on his official vehicle GA- 07-G-5555 in clear defiance of law and amounting to a gross contempt of the Supreme Court's order.

 

In the petition today it has been submitted to the High Court that interest of Justice would demand that in view of the facts and circumstances of the case, that Suo moto cognizance be taken by the High Court in calling for the records and after examining the same taking appropriate action.

 

The Supreme Court in its order dated December 10, 2013 while expressing deep concern over the misuse of the red beacon had given certain directions to the State Government and in compliance the Goa Government by a notification dated 3rd July 2014 had notified the list of persons entitled to use the red beacon on their official vehicle.

 

The High Court's attention has today been drawn that as per that notification only allowed to use the red beacon are the Governor, Chief Minister and Ministers, Speaker, Deputy Speaker, Chief Justice and Judges of the High Court, Leader of Opposition, Advocate General and the Chief Secretary.

 

The law enforcement officers though fully aware of this blatant violation had failed to take action against CIC Prashant Tendolkar only because he is politically well connected and only after a complaint was filed a challan and show cause notice was issued to the CIC.

 

The attention of the High Court has also been drawn to the very evasive, misleading and mischievous reply of the CIC to the show cause notice issued by the transport department. The CIC while trying to justify his using the red beacon has strangely claimed that he is equivalent in rank with a Supreme Court Judge.


The CIC in the reply has further stated that if the mere non inclusion of the CIC in the State list disentitles him from using the red beacon, it would amount that the other central dignitaries whose names are not included on the list cannot also use the red beacon in the State.


A copy of the letter petition has been sent to the Chief Justice of India T.S.Thakur and the Chief Justice of Bombay High Court D.H.Waghela.

Re: [IAC#RG] TREAT STUDENT POLITICIAN AS POLITICIAN AND NOT AS STUDENT

I agree will all the writers, specially the quote of Dr V V Giri, ex president of India that students should be aware and well verse of the political activities in the country, but should concentrate in their studies only. Once you are finished with your study you can go ahead with your own thought and join politics. 
Secondly, any kind of anti-national sentiments or overtures should be dealt with strict and extreme force under the law which should be strong enough to take care of such situations. 
Thirdly, any kind of violence, whether political, students, hooligans or from anybody, should be condemned and denounced. Police should be given free hand to tackle such situations under the law without fear and without political interference.

Please let me know why your site is saying nothing in defence of the students and staff who were beaten up within the court compound and against the so-called lawyers who instigated the crimes or the police who looked on and did nothing?
To the manager's of this site: why has no one filed a writ against the police's inaction and their complicity with the perpetrators of mob violence?

There exists a great deal of cacophony that's secondary to our lives, in that most of us who share our thoughts are neither the culprits nor the victims, lest we should have had radical views.
The question therefore is, 'How often our collective thoughts have been well structured that deserved eyes and ears of the nation so diverse?'
On the captioned topic, the choice is between those who want to become politicians to camouflage their 'fear' and those who steadfastly pursue it as a career. Whilst the former needs no great sacrifice, the latter entails persecution. Its the balance between the two that decides the success or failure of democracy.
We need all sorts of professionals to cater to over 1.2 billion population. Then why not a professional 'Student Politician'?
Our institutions have indeed produced some of the brilliant minds and should be as such held in high esteem.
At 17 we complete schooling and enter into a professional stream. Give the 'Student Politician' a decade (5 years of knowledge + 5 years of wisdom) to get into the mainstream politics, else he or she shall no longer be construed as a 'Student Politician' thereby paving way for other aspirants.
The very fact that we have "Elections" and "Unions" goes to prove that a teacher need not always teach and a student need not always study!

I whole heartedly endorse your views.The primary duty of students is to pay attention on their studies and not indulge in politics due to misguided politicians. The ugly situation which happened in JNU and subsequent interference by politicians of all hue particularly defense of such unpatriotic gundaas of the university by Congress and Left parties was most unworthy and shameful.Instead of condemning the event they talked about freedom of speech,quoting the Constitution,without understanding the limits of it.Calling the action of the govt a fascist act is utter nonsense.In fact they should have cooperated in identifying the culprits as most belong to their cadre. 
        Further, most of the TV Channels,have also become the mouthpieces of the Left parties as many of the anchors come from the same background.There is a evident bias in their not only reporting but also they deliberately bring panelist who support anti nationalists,and try to defame the the rightful action by the police.

When I was a student in Annamalai University in Tamil Nadu, I attended a meeting addressed by Mr. V.V.Giri, former Vice President and President of India.
During the question and answer session, I asked Mr.V.V.Giri as to whether the students can get themselves involved in political activities. Mr. V.V. Giri replied without hesitation that students should do the following three things, namely study, study and study.
 
Mr. Giri  who was an active trade union leader before becoming the Vice President of India pointed out that students should know politics but should not involve themselves in politics, as it would divert the attention from the primary task of studying and learning. Students getting involved in politics is neither in their interest nor in the interest of the nation.
 
The recent incidents in J N U, Delhi , where students planned cultural programme to protest against the hanging of Afzal Guru, the agitation by students in Hyderabad University when a student committed suicide and the support readily given to such agitations by politicians , only highlight the fact that politics have made deep inroads in the academic institutions and universities.
 
In recent times in Tamil Nadu,  several students have indulged in rowdy like behavior and frequently indulged in condemnable acts such as fighting between themselves with knives, hijacking the transport buses and even murdering teachers. Many of such students have affiliations to one political party or the other and if the police would initiate action against them, politicians interfere in their support.
 
It is seen that more than 95% of the students are interested only in academic pursuits. Only  minority  of students who have criminal mind set or who want to launch themselves as politicians in future, indulge in such rowdy like behavior.  Unfortunately, the print and visual media give huge publicity to such deplorable activities of small group of students, which virtually amount to encouraging  them,  as these politicians in the making get all the publicity that they want.
 
In this scenario, it is appropriate that the Government of India has taken action against the agitating JNU students  and strongly deplored their behavior. As expected, several politicians in the opposition parties and some so called activists criticize the  action of the government of India with  ready made statements such as curtailing the freedom and reminiscence of the emergency days etc. As usual, the print and visual media give more publicity and space  to the activities of the student and utterances of the critical politicians, than the views of the government.
 
It is high time that we treat the student  politician as politician and not as student and refrain from giving the benefit of treating  with kid gloves.
