Electronic & Print Media;
Accident Vs. Negligent Killing Vs.Suicide.
Do read and do view , but with discerning eyes.

Pocket Edition of Encyclopedia, none can claim to be, not me at least. As such, I am eliciting right answer.
Is it logical for anyone to mob a rail track, or an express high way? If the metro rail runs over  a crowd treading or gawking on its track, whom would you hold accountable?
A long stretch of national high way is used as court yard in Bihar. From Naugachia to Begusarai, half of the road is used for drying the harvested crops, with kids playing around. Heavy commercial and light vehicles have to exercise caution in driving. What is needed for a driver to have is not just driving skill, but intuition as well. The scene is worse between Bhagalpur and Mokameh.
Electronic and Print media have vied with one another in covering the Rajrani Mishap in Saharsa (Bihar), but without addressing the above questions. Why and wherefore is anybody's guess. What is true about vote bank politics for politicians is true about the media for TRP/circulation reasons. 
So do read and view, but with discerning eyes.

  1. i thoroughly agree...there's so much happening around us and the only view that we form about anything is that which is fed to us by the media in its various forms...unless we experience a situation it is very difficult to put the blame on whoever for it..so while absorbing the views brought to us by the various systems of mass communication it would be well to remember there might be another side to the story
