Why journalists don’t need protection.

(rate this)

I am sure many of my journalist friends may dislike me for saying this but I have to say it: pushing for a legislation to make attacks against journalist a non–bailable offence is very elitist and this can be misused by journalists themselves. After the gruesome murder of Mid Day crime reporter J Dey in broad daylight in Mumbai last weekend, the journalist fraternity has been lobbying hard with the government of Maharashtra to bring in a bill to protect journalists from future attacks. They say this bill will act as a deterrent and the attackers should be put behind the bars. But the chief minister of Maharashrtra Prithivraj Chauhan raised some pertinent questions : who wil...

	My personal opinion is...journalists should be ranked 5th for creating terror among the people after terrorists, religions (caste/regionalism), politicians and big business houses.

	In every profession there are gray areas, journalism is not an exception. Yellow Journalism is a mutated division of Journalism that goes against the key principles of reporting as an unbiased and objective tool for conveying the news. Yellow...

Written by a Pakistani journalist about India

Activity: 427 referals , 42 comments, 2675 views

My friend Rizwan Khan mailed me this interesting draft made by a Pakis journalist. Written by a Pakistani journalist about India MUST READ Capital suggestion By Dr Farrukh Saleem 12/9/2007 Here's what is happening in India : The two Ambani brothers can buy 100 percent of every company listed on the Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) and would still be left with $30 billion to spare. The four richest Indians can buy up all goods and services produced over a year by 169 million Pakistanis and still be left with $60 billion to spare. The four richest Indians are now richer than the forty richest Chinese. In November, Bombay Stock Exchange's benchmark Sensex flirted with 20,000 points. As a consequence, Mukesh Ambani's Reliance Industries became a $100 billion company (the entire KSE is capitalized at $65 billion). Mukesh owns 48 percent of Reliance. In November, comes Neeta's birthday. Neeta turned forty-four three weeks ago. Look what she got from her husband as her birthday present: A...

Dawood: A wanted man who wants a burial spot!

Activity: 2157 referals , 15 comments, 253 views

After two cardic arrests now Dawood is looking for a burial spot in Mumbai. He is one of the most wanted men in India. It is the power he has which has kept him away from getting caught. Though police says they are strictly following his movements still they are yet not arresting him anyways. How funny is the fact that newspaper jounalists know that his men and he are finding a spo for his burial but do not give away his whereabouts and even when police knows the same nothing ever happens. He is famous for hiding out of India. Crime branch has spent millions in keeping a track of him but still have never been able to catch him. Though he is responsible for 1993 serial blasts in mumbai he is still free. Even while he helds lavish weddings for his daughters and everyone knows about the location no one wants to risk his life by going against him. Crime branch chief said that there are other gangsters who want to return to their native land but they are afraid of the consequences but...

Why our Inflation cannot be controlled through traditional tools of economics.

Activity: 330 referals , 11 comments, 57 views

Why ca n’t we contain Inflation which other developed nations find it easier to do? Inflation is the general rise in price levels. It is matter of previlages and authority that is mismatched that lead to loss in value of the currency which had been our problem for long where our currency now is so undervalued and is loosing it as a pattern for long time. It all emerges, let us forget about the standard routes of raising rates or restricting money supply or even creating autostabilizers there is a fundamental reason why we have inflation far beyond what may be required by our growth and employment. Suppose if one get an electric connection, one need to also buy an inverter to get sustained power. If one need to buy a car one need to also spend on extra demand of services every half year. If one need to go to an office to get anything now(not now I presume) one need to spend extra income to get it to functional levels. So on and so forth goes the extra income required to meet the...
