Dear Sir(s),
Ref: News story which appeared in Dainik Bhasker edition dated 9.6.18 at Page 2 captioned, ‘Peepal ke Regstration par…‘ besides other inboxed stories concerning Peepal, inter alia.
1. This is with reference to the questions your newsman posed, a day  before the above said impugned publication.
2. It is expedient to bring the same to your kind notice for needful.
3. The main query that was posed was whether Peepal was a registered NGO. 
4. Registered? Where? He was asked. 
5. As registered Society under the Societies......., He answered. 
6. Why, asking this? He was countered. Because an RTI activist had cmplained , Peepal was unregistered. 
7. O.K, before you seek an answer, you have to tell whether the registration you are talking about ,is mandatory and whether there  are alternatives too of which your promoter is unaware and so are you?
8. The newsman got hiccups for an answer whereto he was advised to get back to his prompter , on mobile of course, to seek further promptings in the matter, inasmuch as devoid of wisdom to question why, a questioner was not entitled for an answer, much less when holding brief for one hiding, seeking vicarious pleasure in hitting  arrows from the dark. Nevertheless, the depraved newsman was given to note that Peepal was registered where it required to be compliant, about which information could be shared only to a bona fide questioner who was not bereft of the basics of news collection discipline requiring a newsman to be skilled in the field he was delving.
9. The delinquent newsman went back to publish the impugned story about which communications have been separately addressed but here the issue is related singularly to the wisdom of the intellectual resources on which you bank. 
10. It may please be observed that the above  said story inboxes statements got outpoured from different NGOs, as to their skewed perception about Peepal . That was reminiscent of a story we have been given to take lesson from , in which blind men defined an elephant in as many ways as were they in number. Point here is that which the scribe completely missed out as would a novice in the field of writing would. It ought to have been elicited what those NGOs had on their agenda vis a vis solid waste management. It is not expected that all would have one and the same focus or field but if focus is not there nor field , your scribe  committed a gross act of depravity by quoting them about what they don't know, in that we may cite here a hundred things , like mis feasance, mal feasance or non feasance , about which if you ask them they might gawk more precariously that your scribe too might, but that wouldn't be found by you worth mentioning in your column because it would only reveal imbecility of the scribe. But if they or any one of them have/has any thing common, instead of arraying them as hostile entities, a responsible news man would bind them together and join them all to a common cause in public interest. 
11. However, if the covert interest lies  else where, the out come has to be what turned out in the shape of the above publication .
12. It is too early to infer something conclusively until it's rejoinder is heard, if any , apropos what hinges on the hunch whether toll collectors are on the prowl , fielded by extortionists putting on the garb of nobility. It's test is sure and simple. The term 'public interest' is intact, but those claiming to be in its pursuit must first of all check own premise and reveal their respective credentials before seeking other's. Secondly, raising questions without intents aiding a public interest activity must raise doubt in the mind of one whose own outlook isn't doubtful. 
13. We don't suppose you too to  be part of the same gameplan and hence expecting your action in the matter at your level apart from signifying  to us your outlook in the above regard. 
Thanking you,
Yours faithfully,
