“Pakistani scientists are terrorists,
all the scientists in Pakistan are thieves, every Pakistani is a beggar”, were
few sentences that were “quoted as offensive, provocative and derogatory by the
regulatory authority. The worst opinion that can bring humanity to shame was mentioned
by a speaker on the same show when he said, “every kid in Pakistan is a terrorist

News Channels of India are already
passing through the worst phase where an undeclared war has already enveloped
the trustworthiness of these mediums. We should not forget that almost a month
ago Indian broadcasting authorities have banned all the channels to get access to
the TRP reports. The battle for TRP has already reached its ugliest crescendo and
most of the channels are all set to leave no stone unturned in this battle of
brick batting.
According to Indian broadcasting
authorities, they are planning to launch a purification trial for the Indian
media which is forgetting the basics of the reporting and acting as an agent to
distribute vested interests of power groups with the help of “special interest

Recently, during a live debate
unofficially anchored by Mr. Sambit Patra, soft-spoken late Mr. Rajeev Tyagi
passed away. Ironically, then he was having a healthy discussion in the favor

This “live heart attack” has already
become a viral post on the internet, please watch it again if possible and
rethink the aggression and selection of words made by Mr. Arnab Goswami. After
spending more than one decade in Media, television news channels, and News
Papers, I find his language offensive on many occasions.
Right now, when Mr. Arnab Goswami has
already become a part of a charge sheet filed under the sections of abetment of
suicide, it is my serious concern that whether an accused of this caliber
should continue on public platforms or he should take an exile from his aggressive
style of presenting insignificant and baseless adjectives as he did in the case
of an above-said episode of “Poochta Hai Bharat” where British authorities slapped
a fine on him. The case of Mr. Arnab Goswami and certain
other anchors have proved a time tested idiom which says, the “words can kill.”
And
if words can kill then we should make sure that “white collar murderer” should
be refrained from imposing this intellectual terrorism, where wizardry of
provocative words is acting as a weapon of mass destruction.
