SAVE OUR TIGER

Are we doing enough? Our tigers are in danger. They are falling prey to poaching and man-tiger conflict. Inviolate spaces for tigers are shrinking. Villagers living near core and buffer areas of tiger reserves poison them in revenge for killing their cattle. The government agencies have failed miserably in relocating the reluctant villagers; as in the last 40 years they have been able to relocate only 105 villages out of 1700 in protected tiger reserves.

Now, Noida MMS Sex Scandal

A 23-year old MBA student of Noida is another victim of MMS sex scandal. She was filmed by her boyfriend when she was stripping off her clothes on music. Her boyfriend circulated the MMS because she refused to marry him. This is not the first case of that kind. It is happening in the country from the last few years. [...]

Pyaar Ka Punchnama

Love is about sacrifice. Is it? I have seen in the Bollywood movies of the late 60s and 70s actors profess that love is all about giving and not gaining. Their dialogues are only appropriate for reel life and not practical in real life[...]

Share your thoughts, in short

Express your love, but is it that simple?

No. It’s not. The three-word expression I Love You is perhaps the most difficult one to express. People may be headstrong but go weak at the knees when it comes to proposing to someone special. For one and all, the expression of love requires perfect timing, ideal setting and right approach[...]

Police gagging media in Kanpur

Posted by Abhishek Pandey on 02:10:00 in


Police officials came down heavily on media persons for their extensive reporting on an eleven-year old school girl Divya, who was sodomised in a school premises and died of profuse bleeding from her private parts.


Investigation officer (IO) and Station Officer, Anil Kumar, has summoned over 21 journalists under section 160 of CrPC and have demanded proof of their media reports.


Not only that, police officials are allegedly making threatening calls in newspaper offices and warning reporters to not file stories on the issue or face consequences. Even, several vehicles meant for transporting newspapers were halted by the police officials and did not allow passing for so called flouting the norms.


The draconian act of police in absolving the culprits in rape cum murder case was exposed by the print and electronic news channels.


Police officials have arrested as many as four people in the case but have failed to prove who the real culprit is? Even, they could not conclusively prove that which is the place of crime? Police theory has numerous loopholes and Justice for Divya has become a people’s movement that is gathering momentum after leaders cuttinmg across party lines, social activists, students, youths have come forward for demanding the arrest of real culprit?


It is important to mention that police officials even did not spare the victim’s family members and resorted cane charge on them while they were staging silent protest in front of the school where the little girl died.


Does the right to speech and expression exist in real means in Kanpur?

Can police force the media persons to reveal its news sources, though even court gives them freedom for not telling their news source?

Media advocacy in several cases has brought justice for the victim’s family. Is this an attempt to put a stop on advocacy or missionary journalism?


Many more questions are being raised in media foray and these questions remain unanswered ......And, until these questions are answered. People of India could be hapless in seeing in near future cases like Priyadarshini Matoo, Jesica Lal, Nitish Katara, Nithari getting solved .....

Justice for DIVYA

Posted by Abhishek Pandey on 01:21:00 in ,


A nine-year old girl Divya Bhadauria was raped brutally inside a school premises in Kanpur. Divya died of profuse bleeding of around 4.5 litres blood from her private parts.


Words have to be censored harshly, if I choose to explain her sufferings and pain before her death.


It’s gory. It’s horrific. It’s unexplainable.


Her mother Sonu is still in utter shock and six year old younger sister Deeksha is waiting for Divya to come and play hide and seek with her, unaware of the fact that her sister is no more in this world.


I might have been completely driven by my intense emotions while covering the issue for HT. I might not report objectively. I might not be fair with the accused Piyush Verma or whosoever it is.


But, I am sure about one thing, a girl had been raped inhumanly and a mother has lost her nine-year old daughter. And, there is someone bloody out there who is responsible for all this mess. The girl deserves justice and the pervert deserved to be hanged till death.


But, police is insensitive and irresponsible for what reasons ? The insensitivity shown by police is sprinkling salt on the festering wounds of the deceased’s family. Police beaten up the guys, who took the girl to the hospital after school-maids literally threw the girl at her house after her condition deteriorated. Police also managed to implicate a middle-aged man for the crime and made him confess that he has committed the crime six days ago.


Autopsy reports, circumstantial evidences and statements of key people contradict police theory. The weak case will collapse in court of law. But, they hardly care. They are real dabang – fearless - in Mayawati’s fearless society.


Justice for Divya needs mobilisation of people, a people’s movement to ensure that no Divya becomes victim next door or inside your house in future.Its your movement. Come on, come out. In real world, in virtual world. Everywhere.

******

One more thing for parents, please do trust your children and take their complaints of any kind of sexual assault seriously, as more than 80 percent children in India are victims of sexual assault. And, the close relatives, teachers, uncles, neighbours are culprits in 60 percents of cases.

So, there is no good reason in not trusting your own kid.

At last, please do pray for the girl Divya so justice served without much delay.

CWG didn’t do everything wrong

Posted by Abhishek Pandey on 01:52:00 in ,

Don’t misinterpret me by the headline and start thinking that I want to go gaga about the unexpected and spectacular opening of CWG in Delhi.

Media, both print and electronic, has reported extensively on the issue explaining -crores of rupees were siphoned off during preparations. The construction of stadia was not qualitative. Black sheep were involved for carrying out construction work. Even, AR Rehman composed a sub-standard anthem.

and, Blah… blah…. blah......blah….

Media has over-stuffed the minds of the people with the information about CWG mess. Media had already put millions of question marks on India's capabilities of holding a grand event like this and made whole country ashamed off these wrong-doings.

I don’t want to depress our Indians friends further more with some more facts and figures about corruption in preparedness of CWG games.

I am sensing, CWG has changed something in the country. And, that is attitude towards ‘less important’ sports. This attitudinal change was brought in the psyche of people in 1984 also, when country organised Asiad successfully.

Common men are more interested in knowing who bagged medals from India in wrestling or shooting than getting information about Tendulkar’s performance in test match against Australia.

CWG fever has gripped India much fiercely than dengue, Chikangunia and other variants of viral fever.

This is a good sign of change in the country, where cricket is religion.

###

One thing more, Sports ministry must ponder over fewer turnouts of visitors inside stadia in CWG matches.

Government could think of providing concession on tickets to the school children in and around Delhi for watching CWG games. It will kill two birds from one stone:

First, Stadiums would be full to encourage players.

Second, Students would get the chance to see playing international players and they would be encouraged for playing unconventional sports.

Big Boss, Big Trouble

Posted by Abhishek Pandey on 01:58:00 in

What has gone wrong with our TV channels? They are showing almost everything without giving a thought. Don’t they have any social responsibility?

Big Boss-4 is the perfect example of the mad race of TV channels for increasing number of eyeballs glued to their channels on prime time. The show has been always in controversy over happenings inside the house in all its three seasons. Sometimes, guys inside the house abuse each other or girls run skin show in and around the pool.

It kicked off with dust storm of controversy today. The makers have gone one step further, this time. Dacoit, super-thieve, and persons allegedly shown in mms sex clips are being portrayed heroes and they are privileged to live in Big Boss’ house.

The show is aired on prime time and families watch the show with children. Don’t you think, our children could think of becoming a ‘super-thieve’ or could indulge in making sex mms clips for becoming famous all over.

What is the way-out? Come on the roads to protest or use the remote in our hands to switch the channels. That, I leave to intellectuals to decide. But why they, you decide your matters.
