Media, the only powerful weapon ever used in the
country! Nuclear energy may come into your mind, but it was the media who had
more destructive power. You may not have forgotten what happened in 26th
of November 2008. I have seen more number of reporters than commandos in t.v!!
Fireworks in every channel I have seen, even the entertainment channels were
busy to get the celebrities speak about the “event” and it had certainly
increased their TRP rating!! But nothing could stop women watching their
favourite serials! Round table conferences and one-table-many-chairs conference
could not help in any means! Politicians rushed{many rushed to hold their seats
tightly, many to their spiritual gurus, many to check whether their business
premise and palace is safe and hardly anyone to the attacked place and homes of
deceased},media exaggerated, tourists “amused” as usual and terrorist
celebrated!!
Defense minister woke up, Prime minister opened his
mouth, home minster skipped his cup of cerelac and media showed live attack day
and night!!
It took another 10 days for politicians to realize that
elections are near; hence chanakyas of every party pushed their candidates to
homes of deceased to ensure their vote banks!! It was a sensational and
revolutionary thought by parents of deceased Major Sandeep Unnikrishnan to
restrict the admission of politicians to their home!!
Ajmal kasab and Pakistan trended worldwide, war of
words started between Pakistan and India, foreign ministers kept busy with new
press release/meet every hour, tourists evaporated from India, opposition party
started seeking removal of PM.
