Every matter of fact pleases some displeases many. If it is truth to be revealed to bring justice do it immediately. If it is bringing doom do the damage controlling exercise first and then reveal. Like that one revealing the news of the demise of the famous personalities especially political.

I believe if one is right, he need not hide anything. Hiding truth is the sign of feeling inferiority complex. One hides the truth when he feels he is wrong. A truth supporter may face obstacles in the beginning but he wins at last.

We know of two arguments one that we should always speak the truth & that blatant truth can hurt. So i think we should go for a more regulated answer. We should always try to speak the truth but but if it's gonna hurt people then what's the relevance of it ?? .......... So my opinion is that we should always speak the truth but hold back on matters which if released can cause havoc in the society. Even the government practices this. Each & everything is not released in the press releases because release of irrelevant sensitive information can cause unwanted hatred & propaganda to accentuate among the masses.

There is a saying in sanskrit: SATYAM BROOYATH, PRIYAM BRROYATH, NA BROOYATH SATYAM APRIYAM. Unpopular truth should not be told, but always tell truth and always tell popular things. Also there is a story of an astrologer and a king where the astrologer says to the king - " Your sons and your grandsons would die in front of you" and the astrologer was imprisoned. Later on astrologer's son comes and apologises for his father's words and asks for his father's release. He says -" My lord, you are very lucky since you can see your son's and your grandson's rulings in front of your eyes". No need to say that the king realised and released the astrologer.

We all know the slogan truth only triuphs...... And it should be like that only I believe in keeping a level of secrecy as an when required . But.....it all depends on the situation and its consequences. We all tell white lies ,when explaining certain things to our children.But when they are matured enough to understand and evaluate we may reveal to them.Like that we can reveal only to the extend the bearer demands....

This is a tricky question. It is good to reveal the truth but one should consider the consequences of revealing the truth beforehand. Sometimes, revealing the truth can have unpleasant consequences for everyone concerned. If hiding the truth is not hurting anyone one should at least consider not revealing it.

I think revealation of truth depends on.......two things.........1..If the person is old/mature/wise enough to understand the truth in correct sense.......2..If revealation of truth can cause unnecessary problems or destruction than it is better to avoid truth..........

Sharing Facts should be the motto of the individual. A truth which benefits(or applies to) an individual may remain within the individual if it does not serve the purpose without
