CONCLUSION
1)
INTRODUCTION
It is
fact and an open truth that the media especially the electronic media plays a
greater influence in the society for the behaviour of the large section of the
people, in fact media has the power to make the system work in its righteous
way by constantly educating the people and bring out the lacunas and also
exposing the corruption in the system and also inculcating the values and
morals and social responsibilities and social obligations among various
sections of the people; but very unfortunately in the recent past most of the
media become commercial and the values, ethics and morals are only on the
guideline papers and the editors association of both print and electronic media
on are only mere paper tigers as self regulation literally failed to prevent
media from commercialisation from service orientated-ness, and the governments
are more or less does not dare to take appropriate necessary steps in
regulating the media not because they cannot do but because to respect the
fourth estate and freedom of press and also partly might be because of the fear
that some of the media become united and create a panic and unrest situation in
the country through their own ways of selective, pick and choose wordings of
the government/ senior elected representatives and degrade the respect towards
the ruling political party; also most of the people are of the impression that
the recent cases of allegations of
extortion is only the tip of an ice berg, some of the media journalists are
like the invisible dictators, whatever they feel should happen and others who
do not come their terms are being exposed for nothing and try to defame and
some damage to them in whichever from they can; also most of the educated people
are of the impression that the media acting as the chief judges in pre
determining the outcome of cases by doing media trails, and they try to
dominate their own views and call some panellists who are regular &
routine, some of them are truly intellectuals, but the fact is most of those panellists in most of the
channels are fixed in their mind set and rationality is very meagre in their
views & arguments and most of them are biased, also most of the electronic
media editors appears to be biased as whenever some political leaders are
expressing their frank opinion/view on any issues in the right perspective
which is the contrary to the pre fixed view of the news presenters then they
will immediately cut the mike/ make shift to the other panellist to ensure the
view of the political leaders are not being heard fully,???????. But most
people wonder that how come anyone can decide on any topic just in half an hour
show matters of importance of state/ national?????, of which when seriously
discussing there are short commercial
break which will affect the flow and thought process as concentration is being
disturbed???????????? Also it is a fact
that only the private channel viewership is less than 30 % of the total
population, mostly by the urban population?????????? Especially the
youth??????? But still they will tell through their poll survey that the entire
country is seeking like this and like that, especially the national news
channels which were viewed by people who are well versed with English and of which
only few will respond to the questions and then how come such short sample be the
opinion of the entire country, do the people responded to the question
represent all sections of the country at least all income groups ??????; do
media has the authority to curtail the individual freedom of expression of the
citizens?????????, when someone just expresses their views which may not be good to some section but
most of them are realities in some perspective then media creates un necessary
pressure by instigating the people which leads to a hater-ate for the
individual and also demands the apology or sacking of the elected
representative/political representative??????????; how far these acts of media
are justifiable; telling the truth and expressing ones views need to take the
permission of media editors???????????? Also most of the people are doubtful
that when the judiciary itself is coming forward for the “judiciary
accountability bill” then still media wants only “self regulation” why???????? Are
media editors and the journalists are above the judiciary of the
country?????????, do the media all editors and all journalists who preaches to
the people on morality are really have the moral authority, do all are like
saints and behave judiciously without any bias/wises; most of the people are
the impression that some of them are regularly hand in glove with elected
representatives in fixing the deals and also acting as agents of business men
and also act as favouritism and bias towards some people??????? If the same
things are continued in future than whatever some fear the corrupt has for
media for exposal and also the common people who still hold the respect for the
media and the fourth estate will vanish soon, then it is next to impossible to
change the system and control the crime?????????? Also everyone should knew and
also all media persons should introspect has it is following the true spirit of
the cordial principles of broadcast code followed Internationally as per their
inner conscious?????? like
·
To ensure the objective presentation of news and fair and
unbiased comment
·
To promote the advancement of education and culture
·
To raise and maintain high standards of decency and
decorum in all programmes
·
To provide programmes for the young which, by variety and
content, will inculcate the principles of good citizenship
·
To promote communal harmony, religious tolerance
and international understanding
·
To treat controversial public issues in an
impartial and dispassionate manner
·
To respect human rights and
dignity
Also as we all knew
from our common experience that if we hear any good news we feel happy and
energetic, similarly if we hear any sad
news we feel unhappy and uneasy irrespective of whether the sad news related to
self or family members or friends or relatives or even if it related to any
anonymous persons or un known persons
whether near to our place or far away from our place we really feel
depressed for sometime it may a moment or long depending upon the proximity of
the person/s; the repeated hearing of sad news will make us sick as the
feelings are registered in the sub conscious mind constantly sending the
negative signals to the brain and it effects the normal health, the normal
behavioural attitude making them to move in a negative path un knowingly, as a
result various disorders are occurring in human beings leading to reduced
intelligence, reduced common sense, reduced humanity, increased
laziness/callousness, look for shortcuts resulting in corrupted behaviour, increased criminal mentality, reduced work up
to by the individual than the normal output, all leading to the un happiness
and un rest as a result increase of violence and other terror activities and
the cycle goes on and on. All this is happing
for long due to the media as if we watch a TV or read a news paper everyday in
the morning, majority of the peoples day starts reading or hearing the sad news
or negative news, the the day itself stars with negative feeling ???????????;the
day ends by watching the news programs then it is the same case, in these
circumstances the negative elements which were force fed in the sub conscious
mind in the night before sleep is being visible or known again in the
morning??????????????; as most of the media is only to bring the negative in the
system in their 24/7 news in electronic media and also the case is almost same
with print media, but major print media is somewhat better than the electronic
media. All this can be mainly attributed to the non self assessment by media in
the protective cover of “freedom of press”, and also due to over pampering by
the so called political class; all sorts of projecting the negative in a larger
way may not be intentional to the media to do so, also some of the media may
not be aware of these interlinked issues due to the negative presentation of
news, also most of the media was caught in the trap of media competition and
easy to make the news with less efforts, expenditure and more viewership to
sustain in the media competition???????? (As it a fact that construction of a building
takes several years but the demolition it takes only few minutes or
days???????????) As such before such irreparable stage occurs collapsing the
entire systems in the country, it is high time there should total revamping of
the media system in the country with uniform fixed guidelines in the win-win
for the people, media for establishing better society; the revamping
regulations should be in such a manner that it will not curtail the media’s
freedom of press, freedom of speech or freedom of expression, but only thing is
to fix the existing lacunas in the media system and also the measures to better
utilize the media energizes by synchronizing & synergising the media energies towards creating a better
society by creating a conductive, cooperative atmosphere among the media
organisations without getting caught in the TRP ratings trap and completion by
providing appropriate necessary support from the government side like reduced
taxation for media, more frinz benefits for the journalists etc in the process
of creating more confidence & respect among the people towards media and
better reach to the people and also for
better redressel of the grievances of the people through media help and also to
create a watch on the entire government machinery for better function for fear
for expose by media and always keep the machinery alert, thus creating better society through
the powerful & influential medium of communication i.e. the media in
creating the awareness among the general public their social responsibilities
and social obligations for creating a better society. So this document covers various
angles of media role in the socio-economic-political- cultural dynamics of the
country.
2) NEED FOR BASIC
TRAINING ON THE HUMAN VALUES AND HIERARCHY RESPECT FOR THE MEDIA REPORTERS
ESPECIALLY FOR THE YOUNG JOURNALISTS; NEED FOR PROVIDING TRAINING ON BASIC
SUBJECTS OF LAW & ORDER AND SOCIAL SYSTEM AND SYSTEM OF GOVERNANCE AND
POLITICAL PARTY SYSTEMS ETC ETC FOR ALL GENERAL REPORTERS; FOR BUSINESS REPORTERS
EXCLUSIVELY ON BUSINESS MATTERS, TAXATION, BANKING, ETC AND FOR INVESTIGATIVE
JOURNALISM ON THE METHODS OF INVESTIGATION ETC ETC
It is
indeed a very high time that all the journalist especially the young budding
journalists need to be trained properly in the reporting system from the
college education itself; also all the journalists need to undergo at least one
year apparent-ship before start reporting to the media; also all the
journalists should be thought of basic respect for the elders in the society;
just because scribe/mike in the hand most of the young journalists address even
the senior-most bureaucrats & politicians by singular words addressing them
by name and without any basic respect for them individually or for the
position, as these bureaucrats & elected representatives might have
invested huge time & energy in reaching the level and also certainly by
default has to do the public service otherwise their very existence will not be
there; we are living in India and the adoption of western culture by addressing
the seniors is not acceptable to many sections of people in the country as they
have great respect for the leadership, eldership and the positions as our
country being a traditional country which all the people has respect for the elders
and the hierarchy. Also it should be more ideal to make it mandatory that all
the journalist are provided practical knowledge about the basic function of
various systems in the country for all the reporters, for specific business
reporters on the business matters, banking, taxation, share market, etc etc;
for all the investigative journalists on the investigative methods and for all
crime reporters on the law & order and basic sections of the law and powers
and duties of the hierarchy in the law enforcing agencies etc
3)
NEED FOR
INCULCATION OF DISCIPLINE AMONG THE JOURNALISTS ESPECIALLY THE YOUNG
JOURNALISTS, ALSO NEED FOR MAINTENANCE OF GOOD BEHAVIOUR BY THE JOURNALISTS
LIKE NOT CHEWING THE PAN OR SMOKING ETC IN THE PUBLIC PLACES
Also
it is an open secret that majority of the young journalists lack disciple in
the behaviour as far as reporting is concerned, they even does not have basic
respect for the systems; starting from the parking of the vehicles, to the
smoking in the public places and also at the venues of reporting at the
government offices and political party offices and other reporting places; also
some of them are chewing the tobacco/pan and spitting on the roads and in the
public places; also very sadly some of the female journalist openly in the
public smoke shaming the culture and tradition (if any individual has habit’s
it is their personal they have full freedom to behave as they like in their
private life, but when in public places carrying respect for the profession
should strictly follow the rules of good conduct and behaviour ?????????) and
also some of the young journalists their gestures and personal behaviour
literally degrading the tradition and customs is at at the lowest point; also
some of the young male journalists do not have respect for female journalists
and are engaged in passing lurid comments among the male journalists in the
public about the female journalists; also some of the journalists are heavy
drunkards and even on duty also consume alcohol and visit the places for
news?????????; also some of the young reports for any traffic violations will
thought and adopt to get way with the media identity card/ media vehicle
pass?????, all these need to be addressed and the journalist class should
command at most respect from all sections of the society and should be like
role models for other people especially the younger generation, which is
possible through proper training and inculcation of discipline in them.
4)
NEED FOR
HAVING FIXED NUMBER OF MEDIA PERSONS TO
TAKE THE BITE, REPORT ON ANY REGULAR EVENTS ON ANY MATTER LIKE ELECTED
REPRESENTATIVES, MINISTERS OR THE BUREAUCRATS MEDIA BRIEFINGS/BITES, WHICH
INCLUDE NATIONAL MEDIA AND REGIONAL MEDIA MEMBERS IN LIMITED MEMBERS ON
ROTATION BASES TO TAKE THE BITES AND THEN PROVIDE FEED TO ALL THE CHANNELS FOR
UTILISATION OF THE FEED BY ALL OTHER MEDIA AS MOST OF THE QUESTIONS ARE
UNIFORM, IN CASE MORE QUESTIONS ON THE ANSWERS GIVEN BY THE CONCERNED, THEN
THEY SHOULD TEXT IT TO THE UNITED REPRESENTATIVE OF ALL THE MEDIA
Also
it should be ideal that all media both print and electronic media should have a
fixed uniform guidelines for organisation; there should be set of reports
chosen on rotation among the national as well as regional media journalists to
take the news bites for the electronic media and also there might be few
representatives from the print media; this will certainly make a disciplined
and organised way of reporting rather than pulling, pushing and all reporters
jumping on the same news bite for few minutes and also wasting the precious
time and money and also wasting the valuable energies of the journalists which
can be better utilised for other social reporting and focus on many social
issues and also useful in correcting the system; so all the bureaucratic, political
and government reporting should have select few number of reports representing
the entire national, regional electronic and print media; in case any sub
questions/ queries to be asked on the reply then the other channels journalist
in the office should text message the representatives, the representatives keep
on rotating from each channel from time to time. This will certainly be useful
in the larger interest of the media that the service to the society by bringing
the facts and transparency in the system.
5)
NEED FOR
MAKING IT MANDATORY THAT ONLY COLLECTIVE & SELECTIVE INTERVIEWS AS DECIDED BY BEA I.E BROADCAST
EDITORS ASSOCIATION FOR INTERVIEWING ANY INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBLE PERSON IN THE
GOVERNMENT WHETHER ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE OR BUREAUCRATS OR ANY OTHER
INDIVIDUAL AND PRESENT THE INTERVIEW LIVE/ RECORDED BY ALL CHANNELS AT THEIR
CHOICE AND ARE COMPLETELY BARRED TO TAKE INDIVIDUAL INTERVIEWS
Also it is very necessary and ideal to take the
collective interview of any individual person in the government whether he/she
is an elected representative or the bureaucrat or any individual or a political
party representative or any NGO representative by the media editors or news
presenters only on the information from the BEA/PMEA, as it is waste of time
for the officials / elected representatives or other persons repeating almost
the same matter in every interview for hours together and the precisious time
of both the media as well as the individual person in the government is being
wasted?????????; this time can be utilised for better work for the betterment
of the country by both journalists as well as government
representatives????????; for this the editors/ news presenters can be on video
conference to have better questioning of the individual persons in the
government with few representative or one or two representatives for entire
media can do the video conference facility?????????. This process will
certainly be useful in better output from the individual as he/ she can take
more time for the same interview and more factual answers can be extracted from
the interview rather than dividing the time for few minutes to each channel for n-number of channels???????????.
6)
NEED FOR USE
OF DIFFERENT MEDIA CHANNELS ON CATEGORY WISE SUBJECTS AND ALSO ON THE LOCATIONS
AND BRINGING THE LACUNAS IN THE SYSTEM IN PUBLIC TO CREATE POSITIVE PRESSURE ON
GOVERNMENT TO RECTIFY THE ISSUES, THEY SHOULD NOT FALL ON ONE INDIVIDUAL ISSUE;
ALL THE MEDIA SHOULD CHECK THOROUGHLY THE ISSUES BEFORE BEING TELECAST
Also
it should be most ideal that all the media channels especially the regional
channels and regional print media should be divided into different groups based
on different subjects like contracts, government works, health care, on the
manufacturing and production, excise & beverages, entertainment industry,
on the child rights and child abuse prevention, atrocities against women,
welfare hostels, welfare schemes implementation, trafficking & flush trade,
child labour etc etc and these teams should act on different locations evenly
distributed in urban and rural areas and gather the information to make the
system clean; by this method more information can be gathered and which can
enable the compulsions on the government to act on fixing the lacunas in that
areas as well as set right the system in the larger interest and also the
corruption can be reduced to a great extent.
7)
NEED FOR RESPONSIBLE
REPORTING WHEN REPORTING THE PUBLIC ISSUES, NEED TO DO LOT OF RESEARCH BEFORE
AIRING THE ISSUE
Also
it should be made mandatory that there should be fixed uniform guidelines for
public reporting, especially during any possessions, darnas, or any sad
incidence or accident or natural calamity or or during any attack by terror or
Maoists etc all the journalists and the editors should follow the guidelines
strictly; the guidelines certainly ensure protection of the the law and order
and should not instigate/panic the common citizens through their reporting
pattern????????, also it should not sensationalization of the issues?????; need
to adopt the policy of keeping positive pressure on the government and
executive for better delivery of the system and law & order enforcement;
must always keep in mind that overnight systems will not change and simply
indirectly helping some sections in the society to get un necessary provocation
because of media reporting should always be cautious and in such cases the
editors should stop broadcasting such issues immediately. Also before airing
need to do lot of R&D for any issues related to religion / particular
organisation/ individual etc
8)
NEED FOR
ADOPTION OF ETHICAL SOURCING OF THE DATA IN A LEGITIMATE, OFFICIAL MANNER,
VERIFICATION OF INFORMATION RECEIVED INFORMALLY FROM ANY PERSON
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the reporting in both print and electronic
media the source should be very authentic and ethical and official only; the
investigative journalist can receive inputs from informal sources but they
should utilise the informal information for gathering the formal information in
a legitimate official manner and only on obtaining the formal information they
should present that particular news in the print or electronic media. Just
receiving some anonymous information, or informal information and then airing
it without verification and then doing reverse engineering to obtain the
correct information, after few days for what so ever reason the matters aired
get vanishing is very unfortunate and in no way this kind of presentation of
news can help in building better system, except creating unrest and panic and
sometimes violence?????? Also useful for some select few????????? This is
necessary as media the fourth estate itself souring information illegitimately
then how come people behave legitimately????????
9)
NEED FOR
FIXING THE DATE AND TIME OF RECORD OF THE SHOT/ CLIP / BITE WHEN AIRING IT
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the electronic media should mandatorily
fix the date and time of recoding of the bite/ feed embedded on the film and
when it is telecasted repeatedly on the same day or during some other time
later, then they should ensure the time
and date of the feed shown clearly; this measure is necessary to remove un
necessary confusion among the viewers as some old feed is shown repeatedly by
some of the media sections just to create hate / public unrest on the
government in action on some issues of same nature, even though the old issues
are rectified in due course of time???????????
10) NEED FOR MANDATORY
UNIFORM MAINTENANCE OF MINIMUM STRENGTH OF JOURNALIST BY EACH MEDIA ORGANISATION
AND MANDATORY DEPLOYMENT OF 70 % OF THEIR JOURNALIST IN THE RURAL AREAS
Also
it should be made mandatory that each media both electronic and print should
have fixed minimum number of journalist in their official pay role as employees
and also should fix the territorial boundaries for the print and electronic
media based on the number of journalists; also it should be made that only the
strength of employees determine the coverage of the news otherwise that media
should mandatorily mention the source of the data/ information when written /
presented to the people this will certainly make the local news papers/tabloids
behave ethically, as most of the small news papers and tablet news papers and
magazines just doing the cut edit and add little spice and paste job,
completely lacking the originality???????; also it should be made mandatory
that all the national & regional media both print and electronic should
mandatorily deploy 70 % of their total strength of journalists / reporters in
the rural areas evenly spread in the entire territory i.e. the district/s,
state/s; this will certainly bring the desired change in the system because of
the news was evenly distributed as per the rural and urban population and their
will a grater scope for the development of the rural areas in an accelerated
manner as more focus on rural areas will make the system alert not only in the
urban areas but also in rural areas as most of the invisible corruption exists
in the rural India done by the village feudal lords and the urban
elite?????????? and also the systems will be corrected appropriately; also this
makes the urban people especially the youth to much know about the rural areas
and their issues and make them to thought for resolving the rural issues and
work in the direction betterment of the society, for this some media
organisations can be formed as a cooperative consortium to cover the entire
state.
11) NEED FOR
MAINTENANCE OF GENDER EQUALITY IN THE MEDIA BY ALL MEDIA ORGANISATIONS
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the media both print and electronic media
should maintain the gender equality; from the journalist education itself 50 %
of the seats in the journalism should be reserved for the females; this measure
of maintenance of gender equality by the media will set an example for others
in the system both government and private organisations and establishments to
maintain the gender equality; this will certainly boost the image of the media
towards respecting the female gender; it will certainly give more moral
authority for the media to demand the gender quality in the country in the
entire system as the media got it shown an example; also the media should train
its journalists especially the young male journalists towards gender sensitisation
in the work place as well in the outdoors with the same fraternity of other
media organisation female staff as well as common public in addressing them
with due respect for the female gender.
12) NEED FOR UNIFORM
SALARY FOR ALL THE MEDIA PERSONS OF SAME EXPERIENCE AND SAME QUALIFICATIONS ANY
WHERE IN INDIA
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the journalists should have a fixed
uniform salary based on their education qualification and experience (media
organisations can provide extra pay as bonus based on the performance of the
journalists above overall average not exceeding 25% of total pay at any level)
and there should be fixed standard procedure for the promotion in all the media
organisations; also there should be fixed pay for the free lance journalists in
all media organisation when they utilise the services of free lance
journalists; also there should be mandatory inclusion of all castes and
religions in each media organisation to ensure proportionate representation as
per castes and income groups in the country covering all regions in the
state for the regional channels, and all
the states for the national channels. This method will certainly yield the
better results in the society as the best output will be delivered by the
journalists as everyone belong to to a particular region , caste, religion,
income group will know better about the dynamics in their respective areas;
also the fixed uniform guidelines for the promotion in all media organisations
will certainly lead to reduction of favouritism and nepotism and bias in the
media organisations as mostly dominated by the caste / region of the media
owner/ top management belongs should be eliminated to the maximum extent;
without making this correction in the media organisations asking the elected
representatives to correct the system is moral less and may not yield the
desired results????; as favouritism, bias, nepotism and also spoil system of
administration is prevailing in most of the media organisations.
13) NEED FOR PERIODIC
TRAINING OF JOURNALISTS AT DIFFERENT LEVELS ON ETHICAL BEHAVIOUR AND REPORTING
TECHNIQUES ON DIFFERENT MATTERS
Also
it should be most ideal to provide periodic training for all the journalists of
different years of experience on different subjects by the senior journalists
and also on the latest technologies and usage and methods of investigative
journalism etc etc
14) NEED FOR MANDATORY
MAINTENANCE OF DECENT UNIFORM TRADITIONAL DRESS CODE BY ALL THE JOURNALISTS
BOTH BY THE ELECTRONIC MEDIA AND THE PRINT BY BOTH GENDERS, TO SET AN EXAMPLE
FOR THE VIEWERS ESPECIALLY YOUTH, MANDATORY PATRONAGE OF “KHADI, HAND MADE TO
ENCOURAGE THE VILLAGE./SMALL SCALE TRADITIONAL WEAVERS
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the journalists irrespective of gender
should wear traditional dress or decent dress code, especially all the female
journalists should be made mandatorily wear the traditional dress to set
example for many other young females in the country. Also it should be made
mandatory that all the media journalists and news presenters should wear
the traditional khadi / handloom/
handmade clothes (at least thrice in a week) and clearly convey to the viewers
in the news channels the dress material was sourced from the khadi/ handloom
made of so and so weavers etc and stitched by local tailor, this will certainly
improve the sales of the handloom and khadi products especially when the female
news presenters wear them; this will be really a great help that media can do
for the millions of traditional handloom weavers and also helpful for local
tailors and also the women self help groups (SHG) to make such dresses to
encourage the families to earn some money for the betterment of their family.
15) NEED FOR REVEALING
& CONFIRMATION OF THE SOURCE OF INFORMATION TO THE EDITORS BY THE REPORTERS
AND THE SOURCE SHOULD BE RECORDED BY THE EDITOR IN VOICE, PRINT FORM OR E-MAIL
FORM, STORED FOR 30 YEARS
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the journalists should reveal the source
to the editors of their respective organisation in writing by hard copy or
through the e-mail or through phone by voice recording. This will certainly
lead to ethical practice of the journalists; the editors should keep the
documents for at least 30 years about the source of information and should be
shared with the law enforcement agencies as and when required based on the
situation and need in criminal and corruption cases to bring the culprits to
justice.
16) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF JOURNALISTS ENTERING / ENGAGING / INITIATING IN MEDIA ORGANISATION
REVENUE EARNING THROUGH ASKING FOR ADVERTISEMENTS ETC ETC; ONLY SEPARATE
MARKING EMPLOYEES SHOULD BE RECRUITED / HIRED TO GET BUSINESS REVENUES FOR THE
MEDIA ORGANISATIONS; NOT EVEN TELEPHONE CALL FOR APPOINTMENT WITH GOVERNMENT OR
PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS OR ORGANISATIONS SHOULD BE REQUESTED/ASKED BY JOURNALISTS.
Also it should be
made mandatory that the journalist whether working or freelance should be
barred from entering the business of revenue earnings for the organisations or
fixing deals with companies for advertisements and other programme promotion of
the business establishments etc etc,; all media organisation should mandatorily
maintain the marking persons either on employment bases or on contract bases to
be in the revenue earning for the media organisations through the
advertisements. Also all the journalists and editors should be barred from
either talking/engaged directly or indirectly with the business establishments
for their revenue earnings and also completely barred from fixing the meetings
for their marking staff with the business establishments; in case of violation
they should be barred from practicing as journalist. This will certainly make a
healthy environment as most of the journalist will concentrate on the
information and issues rather than making money for the organisation as well as
self, it will certainly create a healthy atmosphere for media journalism as the
private deals with business establishments are more transparent. Also it should
be made there should be uniform guidelines for all the media organisations as
far as the advertisement contracts are concerned and also the rate should be
fixed in different categories of media organisations, i.e. local for only up to
district, regional/state and national media, having three different types of
tariffs and also sub categories based on viewer ship / readership in actual as
per the total circulation / subscriptions in the cable/set top boxes and not on
the viewership of individual news bulletins as far as electronic media is
concerned.
17) NEED FOR FIXING
RESPONSIBILITY FOR WRONG REPORTING OR IMPROPER REPORTING OR BIAS REPORTING WITH
RIGOROUS PUNISHMENTS FOR BOTH THE REPORTERS AS WELL AS EDITORS WHICH SHOULD BE
AUDITED BY SOCIAL AUDIT TEAMS
Also
it should be made mandatory uniform guidelines for editors/ journalists to
report the factual without concealing the information or selectively presenting
the information to sensationalisation of the issues for the TRP rating. Also
most of the common educated people are of the impression that if the deal with
any organisation, party, individual does not happen due to any reason then some
of the media unnecessarily airing the venomous and selective application of
half truth facts to the public to defame the individual or the organisations in
some incidences???????; also some of the journalist are biased towards some
political parties or some elected representatives be in government or in opposition and create
venomous things and presented to the public just because of the proximity with
xyz elected representative and act according to their will & wish in fixing
their opponents within the political party or in opposition party??????; also
the case is same in business rivals???????? All such wrong reporting without
verifying the full facts or selective airing of the facts, all such editors
journalists should be punished severely by non bail able cases and stringent
imprisonment and lifelong cancellation of the journalism licence on
confirmation of charges prima face at BEA/PMEA and later by courts.
18) NEED FOR CANCELLATION
OF LICENCE OF JOURNALISTS AND LIFE LONG BAN FOR THE JOURNALISTS WHO ARE
INDULGING IN TAKING FAVOURS FROM THE GOVERNMENTS, POLITICIANS AND BUREAUCRATS
AS WELL AS PRIVATE ORGANISATIONS IN THE NAME OF RECOMMENDING BUSINESSMEN FOR
CONTRACTS / WORKS IN THE COVER OF JOURNALISTIC COVER OF PUBLIC RELATIONSHIP
WITH THEM WITH THE BUREAUCRATS AS WELL AS ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES IN THE
GOVERNMENT FOR TRANSFER AND POSTING OF OFFICIALS.
It is
an open truth that some of the journalists are using their position as journalist
and with their pubic relation with the ministers, elected representatives and
private business men acting as intermediataries for business
consultancy???????? Also it should be made mandatory that in case of any
journalist uses his position of journalist and the approach and proximity with
the bureaucrats as well as the elected representatives in the cover of journalism like to take
favours for personal gains by fixing the tenders / contractors or influencing
the governments in one or the other way by fixing different works or issues of
licences etc by introducing the known /
useful business persons to the government or formally/informally working as PR
agent of the particular business houses should be viewed very very seriously as
these journalists are the root cause for high level corruption; such all
journalists who are involved in these
cases should be immediately suspend to
be a journalist pending enquiry;
and should be barred for lifelong from being a journalist on proven
charges in the courts and also they should be punished under non bail able
offence with rigorous imprisonment. It is high time for setting up of such laws
in the media and journalism; political leaderships if scarred for fear they if
not obeyed then media may create public unrest by presenting half truth or
selective wordings or create public un rest in their own way be these media
then there will not be an end to this kind of corruption in the country and the
some extent black mail journalism already existing in the country will become
the ruling force running parallel governments or indirectly controlling the
government functioning should be strictly curbed; all political and
bureaucratic class should understand if they are done some wrong one day or the
other truth will come, so better not give any scope for any media to get ride
on them, don’t be under the impression till caught all thief’s are
gentlemen??????? they should understand that managing few journalists will not
serve the purpose as media is vast, also if some important media is managed it
will be temporary, as the typical nature of media as was expressed by some
people that even though they take favours continuously they will not really
help they will expose either directly or indirectly through their fellow journalists
as their conscious will not permit to conceal the wrong for long as it is
almost with all journalists by default nature?????????; in fact not the entire
media are people with gentlemen and ladies some of the black sheep crook
elements in every sector will exist, all such black shapes should be separated
in order to protect the sanctity of the sector and up hold the trust and
confidence of the people of the country towards the fourth estate.
19) NEED FOR CREATION
OF SEPARATE MEDIA COURTS FOR TRAILS THE MEDIA PERSONS LIKE THE COURT MARSHALL
IN THE CASE OF ARMED FORCES THERE SHOULD BE MEDIA COURT MARSHALL COMPRISING OF
SENIOR JOURNALISTS AND EDITORS FOR ALL IRREGULARITIES OF THE MEDIA PERSONS
VIOLATING THE STIPULATED ETHICAL RULES OF MEDIA
Also
it should be more ideal that in order to protect the respect for the fourth
estate in the public, it should be ideal
to make separate law and courts like military court marshal to try the media
allegations to try the journalists and the media houses violating the basic
guidelines and for non ethical and moral corrupt practices; these media courts
should comprise of senior media journalists and the senior editors of
reputation and also some of the retired judges in the panel to do the media
court marshal for all media cases all disciplinary matters related to the media
organisation employees and journalists; in case of criminal offences like
murder, rape the regular courts will try as a general public. This measure is
necessary to up hold the respect & independence of the fourth estate.
20) NEED FOR TRANSFER
OF JOURNALISTS FROM ONE DISTRICT TO THE OTHER DISTRICT/ PLACE EVERY TWO YEARS
IN ORDER TO ENSUE THAT THE JOURNALISTS ARE NOT BECOME CLOSE TO THE SOME LOCAL
LEADERS TO BE HAND IN GLOVE TO OPERATE IN THOSE AREAS; THE POSTINGS SHOULD
FOLLOW NEWS I.E NORTH EAST WEST AND SOUTH INTERCHANGING THE DIRECTIONS OF DISTRICT POSTINGS FOR REPORTING EVERY TWO
YEARS
Also it should be made mandatory that all the
media organisations follow the transfer policy of N-E-W-S i.e north east west
and south positing of their journalist every three years in order to ensure
that there journalists are not used to or operate hand in glove with the local
leaders by establishing themselves over a period of time if they continuously
working in that area (it is a common feeling for many locals that some
journalists are literally behaving like that) ; also if the journalist is
working continuously working for more than two years in any single location in
the districts there is every chance of not getting accurate information or
certainly biased information may come; also the nexus between the local leaders
and the journalists develop and this leads to the corruption and antiparty
activities as these journalists are certainly biased towards one political
party leadership; Also by the time the working journalists reaches the position
of an editor they must be well versed with almost all regions in the state and
provides them grater experience to become a editor of media organisations.
21) NEED FOR REGULATION
OF AIRING OF MOVIE GOSSIPS AND MOVIE PROMOTIONAL IN THE NEWS CHANNELS
Also
it should be made mandatory that all the news media channels should be barred
from airing the movie news and movie gossip as it will serve any purpose and
will not be of any use for the general public; all the regular entertainment
channels are permitted to air such movie and gossips; this measure is very
necessary as many of the youth, especially the students are wasting their time
in the movie gossips which are aired in the news channels and the quality of
the news is at the jeopardy; the media should introspect that if some
Hollywood/bollywood/regional actor/ actress remarries n-number of times or keep
changing the partners or have baby without marriage or divorced ten times, or
the dress they wear or the house they buy etc etc or some actor or actress occupies number one
position in the movie field etc in which way it will be useful to the common
people who are watching the news, is it really an information that common man
needed?????????, in fact the youth are following such trends and try to behave
like them and many are avoiding marriages, or many following the live-in
relationships, and changing multiple partners by both gender youngsters
completely spoiling the traditions and customs our country, not only that there
every danger of spread of AIDS and other STD as frequent change of partners and
excessive use of contractive pills may lead to health disorders in
females?????????; very sad for nothing just to attract the eye balls for the
TRP rating the media channels are spoiling the youth and causing irreparable
damage to the society, as it is a fact like water always seeks to flow in the
downward direction, the youth brain always looks for such spicy things and on
regular watching their sub conscious mind will work in that direction that was
followed by the actors and actress??????????, also this news creates waste of
large quantity of youth energy supposed to be on good thought process are being
wasted only on movie gossips???????? in fact is there any moral or
entertainment in the films except violence, and over exposing of the actress
and vulgar dances, in fact most of the movies are watched by the individuals
especially the male and young boys only for that so called raunchy item number songs for the
vulgar moves of the actress in the shortest form of clothes, it is because of
excessive advertisement and promotion in the news channels ????????????, very
sad, very sad??????????, many elders has the doubt that do the intention of
media is to play a soil sort with the culture of the country??????????; need to
stop all this movie gossips in the news channels; also most of the media
organisations airing the movie promotions from the songs release to the talk
shows of the actress and actors become a new trend adopted by the media
organisations especially the electronic media; do making the media promotions
of the movies is the duty of the media?????????; if media is interested in
providing information about the movies that are realising they can, but why
only select movies, not all movies releasing in the country??????, did media
ever promoted any message oriented art films like they are promoting the
meaningless entertainment commercial movies which are successful only because of
the actress skin show and the vulgar dances, item number songs and semi nude dresses of the actress, do
media not aware of these raw facts?????? Also most of the movies now days are
again dependent only on the promotion of media for those item songs to attract
the audiences???? on one hand media makes hue and cry that women are being
objectified and atrocities against women are happing, need gender sensitization
then how came they follow double standards????????; it is hard feeling among
many that since, media organisations collect the huge money for the chit chat
with the actors and actress and other promotions they are doing the movie
promotions in the media organisations?????????; if media values are degraded
just for money, then many people has doubt that they can do anything for money
then where is the presence of journalistic values????????????; also did media
ever thought that the precious time and money (in exponential rate than
received by media as promotion fee) from the millions of viewers was wasted for
few lacks of rupees of media organisation?????????; did media ever thought that
in which way it is useful for the common man that (at least over 70 % or middle
and lower income group) so and so movie made with so many croes or rupees, that
so and so hero movie collected this many croes of rupees?????????; then in this
also the success of a movie in these days by thumb rule only due to the so
called item songs and over exposing of the female actresses still the media
itself promoting the gender bias ignoring the hard ship and efforts of the
actress and projecting it as male oriented as far as the collections are
concerned and success of the movie is concerned, in case the movies are only
hero oriented then why the name heroine????????????; also in case the movies in
the recent past few years which are promoted by media in the name of that so
many croes of rupees are spent to make the film and so much is collected; did
media try to do any investigative journalism that really that many crores are
sent in reality or only on paper for the sake showing the losses in the income
tax to convert the black money to white money??????? Or in case of made huge
profits that this movie collected this many times money then did the media ever
checked that so and so movie organisation / producer actor and actress paid
taxes proportionate to the claims on the success of the film that collected
crores of rupees?????; also do media indirectly promotes that heroism means as
shown in most of the commercial movies in almost all languages that he can
acquire weapons like guns, deadly bombs etc illegally, an hold and operate and
make a blood bath , even beat the police and kill and get scot free, can rob
the banks and dupe the people may be in robin hood type squeezing the wealthy /
goons for a public cause not informing
the government authorities, as if he is government ???????; also provides
judgements and punishes the villains as if he holds the power of judiciary and police ???????????, do in real
like all this possible can be entertained, what message the so called hero’s
are giving to the youth, that too especially the un educated small time
labourers who are the most fan followers of them, all the fans are very low
intellectuality and feel true that what actions done by the hero are real then
what is the guarantee that they may not repeat his acts in real life
????????????, do media knew that youth are maniac just because of the stunts in
the movie performed by the hero’s on screen, but in reality are mostly done by
dupes and are mostly left un noticed if they get an accident in the process of
doing any fight or event on behalf of the so called hero and their life is
condemned??????????? Do any media brought the stories of innocent poor brave
men doing the stunts for earning bread to their family?????; is heroism is only
to marry the rich and famous girls as was shown in the movies???????? May be
the daughter of villains? also do heroism means teasing the female actress to
get fall trap to his love somehow?????????; also do the heroism means making
cruel humourless comedy i.e. beating
someone or removing some ones clothes etc etc???????????; if the so called
hero’s and super heroes in the movies are real life hero’s they could have came
out openly in the public roaming around the cities/ districts in all state in
the country and address their fans/followers to stop smoking, stop consumption
of cheap liquor, stop pre martial sex, stop extra matrimonial affairs, stop
prostitution, stop narcotic drugs consumption; stop domestic violence, stop
atrocities against women, follow the traffic rules, also if anyone is true fan
then report the incidences of domestic violence of niboreurs or any eve teasing
or any child labour etc to the police ????????????? Did any single hero done
this ???????? Very sad, very sad, very sad?????????? Is these people that media
praising as hero’s and promoting them to make more rouge elements in the
society in the name of creating more fan following ???? if some media try to
deflect blame on the government i.e
income tax department, women & child welfare department, police and courts
to deal with on the above lacunas and what for media is ???????????? Need
serious introspection my media to do the best for the people, anything should
be in the larger interest of common people.
22) NEED FOR REGULATION
OF AIRING OF THE CRICKET NEWS ELABORATELY IN THE NEWS CHANNELS EXCEPT AS THE
NEWS IN THE SPORT FOR A WHILE.
It is
very unfortunate that all the media channels are wasting the precious time in
airing the cricket news when the so called cricket is not our national game and
also the BCCI the cricket controlling authority is a pure private entity and
the elections to the cricket control board are private affairs and only it is
completely controlled by the elite, mostly business tycoons and hi-fy
politicians and fixed number of people without any accountability to the
government sports ministry???????? Do media ever bothered to ask for the
transparency in the BCCI , did the media investigative journalism bothered to
do investigation that are the tickets sale is correctly shown, are the
expenditure correctly made, are the contracts for the advertisements are
properly made??; do why only elite are eligible to the cricket boards, do why
cannot it can maintain the proportionate representation as per income groups in
the cricket boards???????; when media is able to go to high secured areas like
defence ministry and get the secret information and contracts un earth-ning, can’t
they get investigation journalism done on the cricket boards???????; ( many
people are of the presumption that since BCCI makes some commercial
arrangements with media channels to promote cricket either officially or un
officially may be through fixing some advertisement contracts etc which need to
be cleared by the media- if everything is transparent that why can’t BCCI come
under government control and RTI even in the government control so called
politicians who are in various cricket control boards can still remain but is
there any extra magnetic power that preventing them to be media like
origination telling the self control- do most of the media aware that what for
media always seeks for self control????????) And also there are no proper
uniform selection process and also there is no representation of the poor and
no proper representation of the entire country, hardly anyone from the north
east states and some states and also only based on the recommendation of some
biggies in the cricket boards should be eligible to be in the team, also it is
an open secret that most of the payers play for their self records as well as
only for earning the endorsements from the advertisements to make
money????????; the media should analyse that how many cricketers are in public
service and social messaging to the public on social issues ?????????? as such
there should be complete ban on the cricket news in regular news channels, only
when the sports news comes then there should be little information; also there
should not be any scrolling of updates on who was out, how many runs made, how
many wickets fallen etc??????????; in fact this is making the wastage of
perspicuous time, of the individuals especially the youth and the working class
and the time is wasted on the discussions of the play and these people sitting
that he should bat like this, he should bowl like that, he should have taken
this wicket?????, is that giving any mileage, food, relegation etc, except
giving more anxiety, and waste of
thoughts energy ??????????; the time spend on the minute by minute
though by the millions of individuals on the cricket up date can be useful in
more productive work and betterment by the individuals if the so called up
dates are not presented by media; in case the individuals are that much maniac
and interested in wasting their time they will watch that sports channels which
are airing match or they will go the
stadium or they will watch till the news channel presents the news at the end
of the match or at the end of a single innings???????????; cricket should not
be life ???????????; life has much more better things to do ??????; if cricket
is life then the youngsters should think did any of the cricket stars who
become stars and celebrities just
because of the patronage of youth not only watching the cricket in the stadiums
but mostly through watching them in the televisions by paying for the channels
wasting several hours before, during and after the match in discussions and
then did how many cricketer are bothered to extend solidarity in either the
anti graft movement or at least violence against the girls & women
movement???????; did any one publicly came to say if you a true fan of mine
please do not smoke, do not indulge in
communal violence, do not indulge in bribery, do not indulge in un safe sex and
pre martial sex, do not watch pornography and do respect the girls and women,
report to police any incidence of eave teasing/ violence against women or find
child labour engaged in hard works etc etc ??????????? are the crickets are so
self centred that peoples should waste billions of rupees of productivity and
energy to watch a match or to follow a match to provide crores of rupees of
endorsements of advertisements and they enjoy?????????; is it not morale
responsibility binding up on them- almost all the cricketers line up for
commercial advertisements and endorsing commercial products????????? Do media
did not bother to raise with them in this manner????????; is media is only
bothered about their channel or paper promotion and nothing else will bother
all other things are only to survive in the completion of journalism
??????????? the media should introspect that how much money that media is
wasting on the minutes they are airing the cricket news, do the same time given
for social advertisements then how much
change they could brought in the society?????, also because of cricket news how
much individual man-hours are getting wasted ??????? If converted into
productivity how many billions of rupees it will produce?????/; also on the
gossip in the mobiles and internet and coffee shops how much energy and money
and time the youth is wasting????????? so the time media wasting on the cricket
news should be used for promoting other sports like wrestling, athletics, etc and village / rural sports and yoga and
meditation programmes which will really help the youth and all sections of the
people to acquire better health????????????.
22 A) NEED FOR
PERFORMING INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM BY MEDIA ON INCOME AND EXPENDITURE, WEALTH,
ASSETS OF SO CALLED CELEBRITIES BOTH FILM, MUSIC AND ENTERTAINMENT, SPORTS
ESPECIALLY THE CRICKETERS AND BRING IT TO PUBLIC SO THAT IT SETS THE
CELEBRITIES TO BE TAX CONSCIOUS AND IT WILL SET EXAMPLE FOR MANY SO CALLED FANS
OF THESE CELEBRITIES; NEED FOR COMPLETE BAN OF PROMOTING ANY MALE/FEMALE
SENSATION LIKE I WILL BECOME NUDE OR SHOWING SKIN TO ATTRACT MORE VIEWERS AND
GET UN NECESSARY PUBLICITY TO SUCH PEOPLE AND MAKING THEM CELEBRITIES
OVERNIGHT.
It is high time
that all media organisations should do extensive investigative journalism on
the so called celebrities both film actors and actress, directors, producers,
musicians, private music album creators, the sports persons especially the
cricketers of both Indian team and the so called IPL and ICL cricket. The
investigative journalism should collect the details of income, assets and
wealth of the so called celebrities, their luxury life expenditure, where from
they are getting this luxury life??????? do they are enjoy luxury with their
hard earned money or un taxed black money or who sponsored their luxury, or who
gifted them the luxury brand watches, vehicles like cars, SUV’s, bikes etc
which are running from lacks to crores of rupees, if at abroad which luxury
hotel they are staying, their abroad trips, who sponsored their tickets, for
what purpose they are visiting abroad frequently.
These details will
certainly make the celebrities more tax conscious and declare their real income
and also ensure that all their luxury they wish to enjoy is taxed money of
their individual hard earned money. Otherwise many people believe that these
celebrities are having nexus with the business people as well as the political
and bureaucrats and are acting as middlemen for getting favours from the
government. Also it is an open fact that most of the celebrities earning is black
money as both the payer and receiver wished to avoid tax. Also since the
cricketers are prone to the max fixing scandals, it is necessary that media
should investigate their luxury life and income and expenditure, wealth and
assets. In the era of self centred-ness being its heights, who will simply give
crores of rupees of watches, bikes, cars to these celebrities???????? If they
do not expect and get receive return favour from the celebrities monetarily
indirectly by making use of their celebrity status and the public relation with
political and bureaucrats????????????? . also it is a common fact that most of
the movies are produced through black money of the business people and
politicians??????????. So by doing extensive investigative journalism this will
bring transparency in the movie production.
Also many people having doubts that some of the celebrities are
indulging in illegal activities of
involved in smuggling, drug rackets, hawala and mostly exporting the
antique jewellery to abroad and also doing some import activities.
Also most of the
media shows enthueastically that this “celebrity” owned this franchise, that
franchise (related to sports, games, products of different brands etc etc) and
this celebrity opened this academy, that academy, this hotel/ restaurant that
restaurant etc etc. Did media ever done investigative journalism that just
because they played some games/ acted in films / sung some songs and were
received them well by people, when they are receiving some x y z remuneration,
how come they own all these with ranging to hundreds of crores of
rupees???????; who are the other investors joining them?????????, do their
investors are tax paid money or not??????; etc etc need to be investigated
through investigative journalism and ensure the so called celebrities do all
transactions legitimate and set example for their innocent followers.
Also dis media ever
felt responsible in establishing moral values in millions of people, if yes
then how come media (mostly electronic and some print also) will show the some
so called actress showing the cleavage or smallest possible dress or showing
more skin (since some laws are existing else some of these film actors/ actress
even do not have any hesitation in stripping completely nude over live camera
voluntarily???) and terming them as “hot”????? etc etc; also if some mentally
sick women are terming that if this game was won by so and so i will be nude
publicly, or do some actress tells that I have no objection in doing this seans
that seans nude etc, do any responsibility felt by media in making it a big
news and making these kind of women as celebrities over night (as majority of
men are by default born with madness for opposite sex slightest provocation and
are sex slaves) will certainly look for such things, which the desire will
remain in their sub conscious mind and the desire once lost control of mind in
alcohol will do all crimes against women as these women who provated them will
not be available to them instead the desire they created in the men will act
and target the innocent vulnerable girl
child and women, where as the so called celebrities and media are again try to
deflect the blame on governments when media is mostly self regulated
???????????????
As it is an open
fact that all individuals become celebrities only and only due to the patronize
of millions of innocent pure hearted people due to their belief in them that
these so called celebrities are real heroes i.e advocate and follow in their
real life the supremacy of legitimacy. (millions people watching the movies or
listening the music or watching the cricket etc with their hard earned money at
their level may be Rs 10 for the lowest class in village theatres to hundreds
of rupees in multiplexes in the metro cities and with Rs 50 to lack of rupees
for the cricket in the stadium to paying hundreds of rupees per annum to the TV channels?????????), the innocent
people are of the impression that these so called celebrities are honest,
straight forward both life (more specifically in character), it is necessary
that their lives should be crystal clear and transparent to all the public to
set example for others otherwise it is nothing but they are criminals for
cheating the innocent people with their shadow negative behaviour????????????;
as such it is most ideal that media should create a website and put the details
of income, expenditure, assets and wealth and taxes paid by these so called
celebrities.
23) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF AIRING OF THE FASHION SHOWS & OTHER ENTERTAINMENT NEWS IN THE NEWS
CHANNELS
It
indeed really a sad state of affair that what is the need for the media to show
the fashion shows and so called entertainment news to all the viewers of news
channels and in the print media; if the people want to know about the so called
entertainment news people will go that particular exclusive channels, similarly
for the so called fashion shows???????; how come for common man who is
suffering and suffocating with struggle to survival with half of population is
suffering malnourishment/anaemia of their children and females then how will be
useful the so called fashion shows and the so called movie gossips that actress
is wearing this designer clothes, that designer clothes, this wardrobe or ward
rob malfunction?????; most of the designers are not bothered about the culture
or tradition of our country in their designs??????? Ridiculous is not it to
promote this urban elite culture to suppress or overrule the traditions and
customs of the Country which are means are lively hood for millions of people
like traditional weavers and handlooms??????? The opinion was same as “Justice
Katju” the Chairmen PCI when some media writing as main heading for breast
implant surgery when millions of mothers are suffering to breast feed their
children due to lack of proper nutrition and anaemic suffering????????? ; media
needs rational in presentation, what every they show or present should be the
righteous thing and accepted by all people???????????; media are not given
authority to soil the traditions and cultures????????; in fact they should
promote the local traditional handloom and khadi and village products much more
to provide lively hood for millions of weavers and traditional people in the
country as they do not know except their traditional weaving and traditional
dress making???????? Since media promoting this latest design that latest
design, every day some latest then most of the urban and some rural are
patronising the so called latest designs in clothes mostly due to media
promotions as a result the poor weavers and handloom makers not able to compete
with the computer designed power looms and are came to a stage that they are
committing suicide due to acute debts and millions of weavers families are in
very pathetic condition???????? Do media ever though that just by providing few
minutes of their programme on latest products in clothes (mostly regional
channels) make so many millions jobless?????????
24) NEED FOR BANNING
CHASING OF MEDIA FOR NEWS
It is
very unfortunate that the journalists are becoming like the so called
“paparajies” in chasing the leaders/ bureaucrats or police vans and other
people in the news, in search of providing the breaking news and get the claim
that it is “first presented/ braked this news” in so and so our channel????????
Is the media is for the social service in an organised way or just to claim
that they have got the news or is it not their responsibility to present the
news and stop this unorganised behaviour????????; it is acceptable that if the
media is following so called high attention cases of any criminals from the
police station/ court to the jail or being produced in court to ensure no
hooliganism, happens, if it happened the culprits can be easily identifiable,
that to only few select media and the feed should be shared by all media; other
than this in the absence of it leads that people who are supposed to be the
role models are sending the wrong signals for anything you can do
anything?????????
24-A) NEED FOR
PROTECTING THE IDENTITY OF GIRL VICTIMS BY THE MEDIA EVEN IN CASE OF CAUGHT IN
THE PROSTITUTION CASES ALSO NOT TO SHOW FOOTAGES/LIVE TELECAST IN NEWS IF WOMEN
PROTESTERS ARE DRAGGED BY POLICE WOMEN, MEDIA SHOULD BE MORE SENSITIVE.
Also the media
should be banned to air the girl victims details even in case of prostitution
and should compulsorily air the details of the accused and in case of
prostitution the male partners and the pimps should be displayed to ensure that
they will be shamed in the society; similarly complete ban media showing female
protestors dragging by police in the event of protests & darnas to protect
the respect for dignity of women?? As very shamefully the toured
blouse/kurtuti, indecent positions of legs are exhibited in electronic media
unknowingly adding more shame to them???; in case the media wishes to show to
the public the irresponsible & insensitive behaviour/ goonda behaviour of
the police they should blurred the images and air it in the black and white
only ensuring that no women’s face or body is reviled as it was in original
picture so that no one can be identified in the incidence when viewing the
telecast (including the live telecast/ live streaming by the use of technology
to do so). This measure is more necessary when water cannons are being used
against women protestors.
25) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF INTERVIEWING THE ACCUSED IN THE POLICE STATION / COURT / JAIL PREMISES
OR ON THE TRANSIT MOVE IN VEHICLES AND WHILE THE ACCUSED UNDERGOING THE TRIAL
WITHOUT BAIL/ ON BAIL TILL THE TRAIL IS COMPLETED
It is
indeed very indiscipline by some the journalists and the media completely
violating the moral norms that the accused should not be interviewed while they
are in the transit from remand to the court or when they are produced from the
police to the court?????????; when they are in the custody of the court how
come they are taking the interviews and airing in the media?????????; even when
the accused is on bail pending the court trail the individuals accused should
not be interview or their opinions are aired indirectly or put in the print
media as the matter become sub judice and that may lead to the indirect
influence on the case at some or other stage during trail in some
cases???????????; Also some journalists and media interviewing the criminals in
absconding and putting their point of views????????? Media and over
enthusiastic journalists should not do such acts of disturbing the justice to
the victims?????; Also media presents so called breaking news that the police
interrogation/ custody information revealed by the criminal accused to the
police in the remand custody interrogation which is supposed to be produced
officially in the court as that criminal revealed this, that, this name that
name dragging some public personalities etc without verifying the
facts?????????? How far it is tolerable?????????; if media dose not really
possess the information then how come they air the breaking news on presumption
or un confirmed sources, do media thinks that it can make millions of people
fools through their notional / presumptive information ????????? All such acts
should be made punishable and a non bail able offence???????? So that media
will behave itself and such illegitimate acts will not get
repeated?????????????
26) NEED FOR FIXING THE
GUIDELINES FOR AIRING THE ADVERTISEMENTS, AND CONSTITUTION OF AN ADVERTISEMENTS
CENSOR BOARD SHOULD BE CONSTITUTED AND
COMPLETE BAN OF ANY KIND OF DIRECT OR INDIRECT ADVERTISEMENTS DEGRADING
THE WOMEN/ OBJECTIFICATION OF WOMEN, PROMOTING THE ALCOHOLS AND ALSO THE
TOBACCO; NEED FOR COMPLETE BAN OF PROMOTION OF ADVERTISEMENTS OF MAGIC CURE/ UN
CERTIFIED HEALTH CARE PRODUCTS
Also it should be
made mandatory that government must constitute an advertisement censor board;
and the guidelines should be followed by all the print and electronic media as
well out door advertisements as well the companies/ individuals themselves; as
most of the advertisements are either highly over exhagrigated or they are
very un connected and only to gain the people’s attention especially the
male views by objectifying the women/ showing women in derogatory form /so
called glamorous form; till date only ASCI advertisements standards council
which is non statuary body and only to issue guidelines, and the CCC the
consumers complaints council will act only when someone complaints that the
advertisements are derogatory or violation of the guidelines?????; is there any
media ever made public the guidelines of ASCI for advertisements ???????? Still
all these are only post operative after the advertisements are
aired???????(very recent example one online shopping clothes company is
advertising by showing a young women covered with different dresses and
removing one after the other just to give an impression they will sell multiple
dress- is the outer meaning, but the actual inner meaning is to attractive to
many men and young boys to view a young women un dressing, it may not be till
the last inner wear, but typical sex sick males which is a default syndrome of
majority of males will naturally watch more curiously and try at a later date
purchasing online in that cloth stores???, very said that such kind of
advertisements; even for biscuits advertisements showing man & women
indulging in compromised positions????) as even till date majority of the daily
consumables in the families are purchased by male and also the youth are
getting spoiled by the advertisements from the un certified health care and
body build up / grow height etc etc and
the old population are being deceived by the advertisements or this oil that
medicine etc for arthritis/ diabetics etc; all the male / female/ aged people
through the weight loss and shape up etc and also the entire weak mind people
through the magic cure, just keep this instrument / item in your home
everything will get to you just like that ?????????????; do for small revenue
that the so called media is playing with millions of peoples life ???????????? By
just washing their responsibility that the climes are to be verified???????????
Very sad?????????? the media should completely ban the advertisements which do
not fit to the ASCI guidelines?????????; also the government should make
stricter punishments for violation of the advertisement norms for both the
advertisers / the advertisement agency/ the advertisements makers and also the
media channels and the people acting in the advertisements??????????; also the
so called media especially the regional channels are after the so called false
swamys’/ guru’s babas etc but if some xyz individual gives advertisements on
the birth day of the so called baba’s, swamis, etc are aired being
aired??????????? Is there any sense in it ??????????? Need to change the
attitude of the media?????????; also the government should ban the
advertisements that are indirectly promoting the alcohol and the tobacco products????????????
in the form of cassettes & cd’s or water bottles etc and also the gutkas?????;
to ensure all these there should be an advertisements censor board to give
clearance for all advertisements to be aired in the media or else ware related
to any products or individuals; this will create a great change in the
advertisements standards and public will be benefited a lot.
27) ALSO FIXING THE
UNIFORM FIXED TIME FOR AIRING THE ADVERTISEMENTS ALL THE CHANNELS AT ALL TIME
BOTH NATIONAL & REGIONAL NEWS CHANNELS AND OTHER ENTERTAINMENT CHANNELS;
THE TARIFF SHOULD BE UNIFORM FOR ALL
NATIONAL CANNELS AND ALSO ONE SET OF TARIFF FOR ALL REGIONAL CHANNELS;
ALSO NEED FOR UNIFORM CONTRACT GUIDELINES, AGREEMENTS FOR ALL THE CHANNELS FOR
ENTERING THE COMMERCIAL AGREEMENTS FOR ADVERTISEMENTS, UNIFORM RATE FOR ALL THE
MEDIA; ALSO NEED FOR MAKING IT MANDATORY THAT UNIFORM SOCIAL MESSAGES BY ALL
CHANNELS AT THE SAME TIME DURING THE COMMERCIAL BREAKS; ALSO NEED FOR AIRING
THE SOCIAL SERVICE AND GOOD BEHAVIOUR PROGRAMMES ON THE CHANNELS AND NEWS
PAPERS MANDATORILY ON EVERY DAY AT PRIME TIME BY ALL MEDIA CHANNELS AT THE SAME
TIME
Also it is very
necessary that all media channels should mandatorily maintain the uniform
timing of the advertisements both in news and entertainment channels; all the
advertisements both in regional news and national news channels should maintain
the uniform time for the news and also the advertisements at the same time and
the time slots and also in order to maintain the standards all the national channels
should have one fixed rate for the fixed time of the advertisements and
strictly no concessions/ discounts or any other favours in lue of the
advertisements; the same should be the case with the regional channels; this
will completely eliminate the hunt for the eye balls to show the derogatory
things to attract the eye balls???????;also it should be made mandatory that
all the news as well as entertainment channels should mandatorily air the free
advertisements pertaining to the social messages of different subjects and
nature at the same time so that whichever channel the viewer surfs / changes
the viewer should see only social
message in that particular time slot; also the ratio of commercial
advertisement time slot to the social advertisement slots should be 75:25 i.e
75% of the total advertisement time in each slot should be commercial and rest
25% time slot in each individual programmes / news bulletin should be
mandatorily for social messaging advertisement; the social message
advertisements should be created by the governments or by the media channels
themselves jointly or media organisations individually with their own cost and
the cost should be exempted from the taxation; Also the entertainment as well
as news channels should compulsorily air the programmes that create inspiration
and awareness to the youth and other
sections of the people on different subjects like removing the social stigmas
on the health care / magic cure / success of individuals using conventional/
innovative methods in the field of education, agriculture / health care /
social structure etc etc; also it should be made mandatory not more than 5% of
the total advertisement time in electronic media and maximum of 5% space of the
total space in print media should be utilised for self propaganda of the media
owners/ organisation itself, as some of the media channels / news papers owned
by the political party leaders are completely filling with their own self
propaganda, the propaganda of the kin & kith of their party and giving an
impression that they are only alternative and rest others are waste ??????????
Totally biased advertisements misleading the people????????????; also need to
completely ban the advertisements of alcohol and liquor in the name of
cassettes and cd’s ; also need to ban the advertisements of tobacco companies
to indirectly promote cigarettes and gutaks; also need to completely ban the
movie advertisements and private pop music albums in the media news channels
and print media. They can be advertised in the entertainment channels and news
papers and magazines only meant for entertainment; or print media can make only
on Saturday and Sunday only for advertisements of movies and other private pop
music albums.
28) NEED FOR UNIFORM
TAX STRICTURE FOR ALL THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS MUCH LESS THAN THE OTHER
CORPORATE AND THE SHOULD HAVE FIXED UNIFORM LIMITS FOR ADMINISTRATIVE AS WELL
PROMOTIONAL ADVERTISEMENTS OF THEIR OWN; AND ALSO THE TAX STRUCTURE SHOULD BE
IN SUCH A MANNER THE MORE THE TRP RATING THE MORE THE TAX SLAB
Also in order to
encourage the media organisations towards more concentration for the social
cause and ensuring the media organisations act almost like no profit no loss
organisations the government must amend the tax structure for the media
organisations and the tax structure should be in the slabs of 10 to 20 %
maximum tax,; the structure of the tax should be determined based on the number
of readers of the news paper or the viewer ship of the news channel; the more
the viewer ship / reader ship the tax should be more with maximum tax should be
fixed at 20 % of the income ( i.e above 10 % and below 20 %); this minimum and maximum tax slab for media
organisations should be applicable only for those media organisation which
follows he stipulated guidelines, the government guidelines should must fix the
minimum number of journalists to area covered, to total employees in the
organisation, to administrative expenses per employee & per journalists
working in the organisation and all the media organisations should strictly
operate within this limits only can avail
the tax slabs and minimum & maximum tax slab otherwise the media
organisations failing to adhere to the norms should attract the normal tax of
any organisation.
29) NEED FOR
FIXING DIVISION OF THE TIME I.E THE 30
MINUTES OR ONE HOUR REGULAR NEWS AS AND WHEN THEY PRESENT NEWS BULLETINS
COVERING ALL ISSUES AND ALL SECTORS LIKE POLITICAL, ECONOMY & BUSINESS,
SOCIAL, HEALTH CARE, EDUCATION, SPORTS ETC. SHOULD MANDATORILY COVER HEALTHCARE
AND ITS TIPS (50 % TIME IN ANY SINGLE NEWS BULLETIN FOR SOCIAL AWARENESS,
OBLIGATION, SOCIAL BETTERMENT, 7% FOR POLITICAL, 8% FOR GOVERNMENT 20% FOR
BRINGING LACUNAS AND FIXING, 5% FOR BUSINESS, 5% SPORTS (4.5% NON CRICKET, 0.5%
CRICKET), 5 % ENTERTAINMENT (4.5% NON FILM BASED TRADITIONAL MUSIC AND DANCES,
0.5% FILM NEWS IF THE FILMS ARE OF NON COMMERCIAL)) AND ALL MEDIA SHOULD FOLLOW
THE SAME SEQUENCE OF PRESENTATION AND ALSO SAME TIME SLOT FOR EACH SECTION OF
NEWS WITH THE SAME 30 MINUTES; THIS WILL ENABLE THAT EVERY ONE WILL WATCH
THE HEALTH CARE MESSAGES EVERY TIME
WHICH MAY SPREAD AWARENESS AND ALSO BRING CHANGE IN THEIR HABIT’S OVER A PERIOD
OF TIME.
As we all knew that
in the present set up of media airing/ presenting the news majority of them are
politics about this comment, that comment, followed by crimes and followed by
cricket, followed by movie and entertainment promotion, very meagrely social
messaging, making the media news means only politics and crime or cricket or
movies ???????????; is those this comment , that comment of political party
leaders news can do any productive thing to people?????????, can help people in
any way, can they provide lively hood, only these things are waste of
productive human time, wasteful expenditure of energy, money, time etc and total
loss to the people ????????????? as such
it is very necessary that all media will follow the fixed time for each
new bulletin and also with the fixed time for each category news i.e the social
programmes, the government programmes, the political, the business and
economics and agriculture and other programmes and social messages and social
obligations and social knowledge for the youth and students etc in the news
bulletin time; 50 % time in any single news bulletin for social awareness,
obligation, social betterment, 7% for political, 8% for government 20% for
bringing lacunas in the system of governance and fixing them appropriately, 5%
for business, 5% sports (4.5% non cricket, 0.5% cricket), 5 % entertainment
(4.5% non film based traditional music and dances, 0.5% film news if the films
are of non commercial)); all social messages should be aired at a nut shell and
full detailed programmes in between the news bulletins for better understating
of the real systems in the country and real hardships of various sections in
the society to bring the foods to the table for all the people in the country
and also the hardships of the employees and labour in bringing the electricity,
transport, the shelter etc etc all this
will certainly make the youth and the students to think in a positive
direction; also there should regular health care topic in very bulletin and
details programme in between the bulletin to make the better health awareness
and betterment of the individuals.
30) NEED FOR
RESTRICTING THE AIRING OF POLITICAL NEWS THAT SOME LEADERS FROM THE STATE
GOVERNMENT OR CENTRAL GOVERNMENT OR SOME STATE LEVEL LEADERS OR NATIONAL LEVEL
LEADERS INAUGURATING A PAN SHOP OR A LOCAL LEVEL ISSUES, OR PARTICIPATING IN
THE CAMPAIGN OF THE LOCAL ELECTIONS OR PARTICIPATING IN ANY ELECTION CAMPAIGN
OF THAT BY ELECTION OR REGION; OR SOME GOVERNMENT PROGRAMME WHICH IS LOCALLY
RELATED????????????; HOW COME SUCH NEWS SHOWING FOR HOURS IN MEDIA HELP THE
MILLIONS OF PEOPLE ??????????????; MEDIA IF WISHED CAN GIVE A SMALL NOTE OR A
SCROLL THAT SO AND SO GOT DONE THIS; ALSO COMPETE BAN OF SHOWING POLITICAL
PADAYATRAS NEWS?????????????? ON MINUTE TO MINUTE BASES AND UP DATES; IF THE
LEADER OR THEIR PARTY WISHES TO PROPAGANDA THEY CAN GIVE LITTLE PRIVATE
ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE MEDIA????????????
As it becomes a
syndrome for media that in the competition among themselves if one media
expresses the news related to politics (as may be having proximity to those
leaders the managements of media) all other channels are following??????????? this
is really very un productive time waste and energy waste and really degrading
the spirit of the media the way the news is presents even in the politics
??????????; most of the political news is only related to the opening of some
pan shop or small approach road to in a small village by the national leaders
or state leaders because it falls under their constituency limits or it may
fall under their district or state or because of proximity of the local leaders
with the national /state leaders / elected representatives in government and
making it a big news in the regional media and even in some cases the national
media keeping the programme live and wasting hours of precious time
????????????; is there any need for showing such elaborately such news ???????????;
only the media may put little news in the scrolling that so and so state or
national leader or state government or central government minister etc opened
so and so, only when anything they said in the meeting of state importance can
be aired in the regional news, of national; importance should be aired in the
national news in a considerable quantity of time; else even if any national
leaders of any party or any central minister is called by the respective state
governments which the minister belong to the opening of or participating in
some function, how come it become prime importance for the people in the
country, it may be important to that local constituency only ????????????; it
may be given as news only in the regional cannels only one single point news for very brief time if the
government issues notification to all media through its information department
????????????; do media job is only to
follow the it nary of the national and state leaders and central and state
government ministers and officials to present whatever their activities
daily??????????????; if any importance related o the governance matters or ant
promises in the poll or any inauguration of government programmes of prime
importance then the respective ministers will certainly brief to the media in
the daily news briefing along with the photographs and video footages or they
can obtain the feed from the local channels ????????????????; also similarly
most of the media is covering extensively the “so called padayaters“ of some leaders
of some political parties ??????????????; do anything people can get through
promoting the so called padayaters; most of the padayatras are self centric or
intended to remain power or to gain/regain power in the coming election and
self propaganda and only publicity stunts and only to be in circulation in the
peoples mind ??????????????; then how come media promotes such self centric
activities, leaving the larger national issues of poverty, self employment
generation, good behaviour, heath care, etc etc, social awareness etc etc
????????????????;also since most of the media channels are owned by the
politicians and powerful politicians or party heads and their proxies most of the news in those channels are only
about their leaders padayatras ?????????????; do government of India given the
licence to run the media for the self propaganda or to establishing better
society????????????? as such the media should be completely barred from either
the live telecast or covering the news of any leaders of either national or
state level leader an only if required can give very shortly about so and so
leader visited this place; also media should be barred from giving the
advertisements related to this kind of padayatras in the media??????; media
should understand the fact that these news can reduce the poverty????, these
king of news can reduce the malnourishment in the children?????????, do these
news can reduces the anaemic condition of the
adolescent girls and women in the country, do these news reduce the crime
rate, especially on the females ?????????; do these news motivate any
youth by getting inspired to think and
work in the direction of research, self employment etc etc; do these news can
make the people aware of how the hardships of the rest of the professionals
like the farmers, the vegetable growers, the milk producers, the mechanics, the
industrial workers, the coal miner etc etc and as a result of combined efforts
of millions of people every other person in the country is enjoying the food
that is coming to the plate, the electricity, etc are as a hard work of few
millions of people, do media bothered to let the youth of the country know he
ground realities ????????? by controlling the wasteful un important political
news (only important news like any policies or comments specifically pointing
on any government activities can be aired) will really help the people of the
country as media can spare the best quality of time in quality programmes of
social awareness, good behaviour, self development, productivity creation etc
etc for the betterment of people.
31) NEED FOR MAKING IT
MANDATORY THAT REGIONAL LANGUAGE
CHANNELS FOCUS MORE ON THE REGIONAL ISSUES I.E THE STATE / LANGUAGE
SPECKING TERRITORY ONLY (ALL OTHER REGIONS /OTHER STATES ISSUES COMES IN THE NATIONAL
NEWS) AND THE LATER NATIONAL ISSUES AND INTERNATIONAL ISSUES. THE RATIO OF TIME
PERIOD OF AIRING THE REGIONAL, NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL SHOULD BE IN THE
70:20:10 AS FAR AS POLITICAL AND SOCIAL AND GOVERNANCE ISSUES ARE CONCERNED
Since there are
n-number of regional news channels and print media are in existence there
should be some uniform guidelines as far as presentation of the news is
concerned to get more better utilisation of the potential of the regional media
in the betterment of people in that territory/region by making it mandatory
that all regional news channels and the print media should mandatorily divide
the time frame/ space in the ratio of 70:20:10 as far as the regional news,
national news and the international news is concerned with regards to
political, government and other issues/lacunas in the governance in any part in
the state/ territory. This measure is very necessary as most of the regional
channels simply wasting more time on cut and paste job of other regional /
national/ international cannels news and presenting in their language by
blurring the logo of the other region regional channel/ national/
international, of which there is hardly any use for the this regional language
people ?????????? example if in a state x there was some accident and one local
died, then that regional language channel aired it, then the other regional
channels in their state in other regional language airs that news as if they
got reported and also of no use ??????????? Like that numerous examples in
different political, governance and other matters???????? In that state, this
will enable the more focus in the regional issues and also helpful in fixing
the lacunas more quickly through building appropriate necessary pressure on the
governance.
32) NEED FOR AIRING THE
NATIONAL NEWS CHANNELS IN REGIONAL LANGUAGES TRANSLATION SCROLLING FOR BETTER
UNDERSTANDING OF THE NATIONAL CHANNELS BY ALL SECTIONS OF THE PEOPLE, ALSO IT
HELPS IN GETTING LARGE OPINIONS IN CASE OF ANY OPINION POLL AS THE TRANSCRIPTS IN
REGIONAL LANGUAGE HELP TO DO SO O GET LARGER BASE ON NATIONAL ISSUES; ALSO IT
HELPS IN LEARNING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE APPROPRIATELY OVER A PERIOD OF TIME
Also it is most
ideal that if the national news channels especially the English channels are
aired in every region with the transcripts of the voices in the regional
languages at the bottom of the screen (not the voice dubbing, but voice in
English as was presented by the news presenters but the writing of translation
of voices in local regional language), this will enable that all sections of
the people who are not well versed with English can watch the English new with
possibly to access the important national issues and good debates; also this
enables more people can participate in opinion polls of national importance and
it creates a wide base as many sections of the people in the rural areas and
urban areas who are not well versed with English can understand and express
their opinion; also this enables larger section of population especially the
youth to slowly understand the English and also able to lean the English and
over a period of time they can speak in English; this will have numerous
benefits in their life as well as useful to the country in many ways
??????????????.
33) NEED FOR AIRING THE
OPINION OF THE VIEWERS IN THE NATIONAL CHANNELS THROUGH TIE UP WITH ALL
REGIONAL CHANNELS AND PUT THE OPINION QUESTION Y/N IN ALL THE REGIONAL CHANNELS
IN THE REGIONAL LANGUAGE AND CLUB UP ALL THE OPINIONS AND AIR IN THE NATIONAL
CHANNELS; ALSO ALL THE REGIONAL CHANNELS SHOULD PUT ONE SINGLE RATIONAL QUESTION
OF THE DAY OR FEW RATIONAL QUESTIONS OF THE DAY ON ALL THE MEDIA CHANNELS
UNIFORMLY AND OBTAIN THE OPINION OF VIEWERS OF ALL CHANNELS; NEED FOR MAKING
TELECOM OPERATORS PROVIDE 1000 SMS/YEAR FOR OPINION POLLS
Also it should be
made mandatory that all the news channels especially the national news channels
when putting the questions to gather the public opinion they should make the
question to be aired in all the regional
news channels compulsorily at the same time for voting / putting their opinion
of matters of national importance / need for acts by the central governments so
that maximum number of people can participate and express their opinion, as the
present system only people who are well versed with English knowledge only are
able to express their opinion and are mostly living in the urban areas only and
the national news channels are completely missing the considerations and
opinion of the rural areas and also people who are not well versed with the English;
also the all the regional channels should club up together their opinion polls on any matter of
importance of state matters and take the opinion voting on any matter
collectively by putting the same question on the same time on all the regional
news channels to get the larger peoples
opinion on any matter; also it should be made mandatory that the questions put
for opinion poll should be very responsibility and rationally made in
consultation with senior editors tram in every news channel, and all the group
of editors should be responsible for any irrational questions which in case
cases any violence in any part of the country also the government must make it
mandatorily that all the opinion SMS should be free for all the users by the
telecom operators up to 3 opinion polls voting on daily and 1000 SMS free for
voting on different issues, this will certainly encourage more people to send
their opinion on any matters / issues. The same is the case with the news
papers that uniform question should be put by all the print media either daily
or weekly on different issues for SMS poll; This will certainly make the better
ways & means for achieving better governance by giving the inputs to the
governments on various issues and matters of public importance about the
opinion of various sections of the people.; alternatively it is most ideal that
to register all the viewers when sending first time sending the opinion poll
their income group to be fed in the computer data system and can be better used
for making the opinion poll based on income groups in future; or alternatively
making it mandatory by the telecom operators to collect the pan card details
and also self declaration about the income group of each mobile SIM card, which
will automatically makes the segregation as per income group and this will
enable better use of data in many ways.
34) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF MEDIA TRAILS, PEOPLE / EXPERTS/ PANELLISTS IN MEDIA SHOULD BE ALLOWED
ONLY TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS ONLY AND TAKING POSITIONS ON THE CASES IN MEDIA TRAIL
SHOULD BE COMPLETELY BANNED AS IT MAY LEAD TO INFLUENCE INDIRECTLY THE TRAIL
PROCESS
Also it is most
unfortunate that some media is almost becoming like an extra judicial authority
by conducting the trails in determining the outcome of the cases of different
nature mostly the corruption cases; and most of the media editors are becoming
judges and the panellists who are more
or less fixed for every programme in almost every regional / national in almost
every news channel are like the lawyers to argue for and against the cases in
the media ????????; many people are of the impression is media is extra
constitutional or media is vested with quasi judicial powers as media can
summon any one to their studio or online to face their trail ???????????; in
case any one does not obey their summons to join the trail then they will do
the trail as ex party and completely de fame in the non presented person and
he/ she will become a fall guy for the media trail in the own manner of media
style “like the styles created by artists the some media editors also has their
own styles to make other people to get fixed???????????????; very sad
???????????? complete gross mis use of power of media by some editors with
better wisdom than their so called journalists and reporters on site
???????????; this kind of media
judgements of their most of the time imaginatory/ presumptions judgements with
presumptions and assumptions are leading to utter confusion among many sections
of the society and also leading to violence and wastage of human energy in
different forms, also this media trails effecting in some or other manner the
real judgements as the culprits are alert in getting different types of views
from the media (what prosecution supposed to be raised in the court room) and
their so called intellectual panellists (some of them are experts in law) and
using these techniques they are covering the loops holes in their defence and
better uses the loop holes of the
prosecution by the so called intelligent lawyers of the culprits to at least
dragon the cases for years and get relief till that period???????????; is this
necessary helping indirectly the culprits ???????????; media editors may be
intellectuals but certainly not majority of the editors and news presenters are
specialists and experts in the law???????????; the professional lawyers and the
judges who are experts in the law are
there to deliver their duty in the institutions of justice ??????????; sop
media should understand what wrong they are doing by media trails ??????????
let law authorities i.e judiciary function its functionalities and media should
play the role of information providing to common people on government issues
and social issues and their remedies and social education and social
obligations as government or law alone cannot do everything and cannot prevent
all crimes and certainly media should not provide the excess expert information
and ideal to the culprits in any case through the media trail ??????????????;
also if the media trails are not stopped then many people are of the impression
that after some time some media organisation may start influencing the
judiciary in the name of peoples verdict by putting the opinion poll that
“which way the judge should make his judgement- say yes/no if you feel the
judge should go according to the judgement/ discussions of this editor, outcome
of this media trail debate ????????
35) NEED FOR MANDATORY
MAINTENANCE OF WEBSITE BY ALL MEDIA ORGANISATIONS BOTH PRINT & ELECTRONIC
MEDIA, NEED FOR PUTTING THE DETAILS OF THE JOURNALISTS/ REPORTS AREA WISE AND
THEIR PHOTO AND CONTACT DETAILS, ALSO
FOR PUTTING ON THE WEBSITE THE MONTHLY DETAILS OF THE CHANNEL/ PRINT MEDIA AND
ALSO THE MONTHLY REVENUES EARNED BY EACH NEWS AGENCY IN DETAILED BIFURCATION ON

Also it should be
made mandatory that all the media organisations should maintain the website
with same standard/uniform features in the design of their choice and they add
additional features other than standard features; the minimum information
needed to be maintained in the web site include the management, their share
pattern, details of the investors, details of the creditors and un secured
loans, also the details of other
business shares/ involvement of the major share holders, their education, their
experience including their previous working places etc and the number of
locations they are present; their office
equipment make and number both
stationary and movable and also the number of staff, the journalists with their

revenue earned and the viewership details region wise & district wise; also the number of
social programmes and the clippings of the social advertisements as well as
social programmes and also on opinion polls conducted and their results with
total number of people responded to the question etc for bringing absolute transparency
in the operations of the media organisations by both print as well as
electronic media organisations.; also all media organisations should keep the
details of the journalists working in their pay role and also the free lance
journalists details as and when if they take their services, the details
include the journalist registration number, photograph, the education, the
contact details both mobile and internet e-mail, social media etc their work
experience etc etc
36) NEED FOR MANDATORY
DISPLAY OF NEWS GUIDE WITH FULL DETAILS OF THE SOCIAL AWARENESS PROGRAMMES
TIMINGS ON THE WEB SITE
Also it should be
made mandatory that all the news channels / print media should publish a weekly
guide for all the news timings and programmes in between news bulletins regarding
the social awareness programmes for making it a note to all the interested
viewers to make it convenient to watch the interested social development/
social awareness programme. The details should also made available on web.
37) NEED FOR MANDATORY
CARRYING & DISPLAY OF THE ID CARD BY JOURNALISTS AND IN CASE OF
INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM ALSO NEED TO SHOW THEIR CARD WHILE GATHERING THE
INFORMATION, ALL THE INFORMATION GATHERING SHOULD BE VIDEO RECORDED/ VOICE
RECORDED AND IT SHOULD BE PRIOR OFFICIAL AUTHORISATION / INFORMATION TO VISIT
ANY PLACE DO SO FROM THE EDITORS OF THE MEDIA ORGANISATION.
Also it should be
made mandatory that all the journalists except the investigative journalists
should wear the ID card in a visible manner; and the investigative journalists
should carry the ID card with them and mandatorily display the ID card while
gathering the information and all the information gathered should be recorded
either video or voice or collect the documents and the source of the documents
/ information and the evidence for their investigation should be produced to
the editors of their media organisation; also all the investigative journalists
should take prior permission from the editors of the organisation to carry on
the investigation on any matter and the investigation should not be carried at
the will & wish or sue motto by any employee journalist of any media
organisation (in case editors did not provide the permission the journalists
should report the same to BEA/PMEA and also journalist association against such
editors);
38) NEED FOR KEEPING
DETAILS OF AREA WISE JOURNALISTS AND THEIR
ID CARD NUMBERS AND CONTACT DETAILS IN THE NATIONAL, REGIONAL MEDIA
JOURNALISTS ASSOCIATIONS; ALSO NEED FOR ONLINE VERIFICATION / SMS VERIFICATION
OF THE IDENTITY OF THE JOURNALISTS BY ANY PUBLIC OR GOVERNMENT/ PRIVATE
INSTITUTION ON VISITING THEM FOR ANY INFORMATION; CREATION OF DATA BANK OF
JOURNALISTS AND PROVIDING UNIFORM NUMBER FOR ALL JOURNALISTS OF A PARTICULAR
PLACE
Also it should be
made mandatory that there should be national and regional media journalists
associations and they should clearly make the list of journalists working each
block wise/ mandal wise and each district wise and state wise with their
photographs and contact details and whether they are working in any
organisation or freelance journalists etc. This will certainly make the people
aware of the true legitimate journalists and also makes them easily to contact
the journalists whenever needed. This will completely eliminate the fake
journalists and will curtail fake journalists from extortion in the name of
journalists of so and so media organisation; also it should be made mandatory
that each of the journalist should be provided with a valid number of
journalist and the number on SMS to the association by any people should revel
to them whether the individual is a journalist or not or online web
verification should revel / provide the details of the journalist whether
freelance or working in any organisation when every if any one got doubt about
the visiting person in the name of journalist, if working in any organisation
then the name of organisation and the contact number of the editor; in case any
government/private organisation/ individual gets any doubt regarding the
journalist they can contact the editor whether the journalist got permission to
gather the information or not. This will completely eliminate completely the
fake journalists.
39) NEED FOR MAKING IT
MANDATORY FOR ALL JOURNALISTS TO INFORM THROUGH SMS/E-MAIL/WRITTEN FORM ABOUT
TO THEIR VISIT TO ANY PARTICULAR PLACE FOR INFORMATION, UN INFORMED VISIT TO
ANY PLACE SHOULD BE TREATED AS UN AUTHORISED AND SUCH JOURNALISTS PERFORMING
SUCH UN AUTHORISED VISITS MORE THAN THREE TIMES SHOULD BE REMOVED FROM
JOURNALISM FOR UN ETHICAL BEHAVIOUR
Also as mentioned
above in order to ensure that all the journalists maintain the ethical
practices it should be made mandatory that each journalist working in any media
organisation should either take prior permission or inform in writing through
hard copy or e mail or sms about the investigative journalism and also the
place of visit to take any information from any individual or organisation;
without the official permission from the editor / information to the editor the
journalists should not visit in their official capacity as journalist and visit
any private/ government organisation / individual to meet / gather information
etc, by showing the journalist ID card the visit of the journalist should be
treated as official. And in case of violation of this rule the journalist
should be barred from carrying out the profession of journalism and should be a non bail able case and
imprisoned religiously for suspension of using the position of journalist of
any organisation for personal gains treating it as the journalist has the
intention to do extortion or do corruption/favouritism/bias; also need for
formation of freelance journalists regulation authority.
40) NEED FOR CREATION
OF CONTROLLING AUTHORITY FOR FREELANCE JOURNALISTS AND ALL FREELANCE JOURNALISTS
ARE LIMITED FOR ONLY WRITING COLUMNS AND EXPRESSING THEIR OPINIONS AND SHOULD
BE BARRED FROM PERFORMING THE INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM
Also it should be
ideal that government must make it mandatory the formulation of an authority
for regulating the freelance journalists; all the free lance journalists must
mandatorily register in this association; and all the freelance journalists are
barred from carrying the investigative journalism; in case they already possess
some information they can present it with evidence to the concerned media
organisation where they are presenting their views; also all the free lance
journalists are eligible only to express their views and opinion on any
matters any where through any medium of
communication; also the free lance journalists are barred to gather any
information, obtain any favours / permission for visiting the government/
private offices/ individuals in their capacity as journalist; however they are
free to visit any place as a citizen of the country any place of their choice
and meet any individual as the citizen of the country and they are barred from
using the information gathered/ conversation as a citizen with the government/
private individuals with any media or in any social media or in any form of
communication in the capacity of the journalist, but can share as a private
citizen. This measure will certainly bring ethics in the journalism and will be
useful in curtailing the journalist using their position to influence the
government and private organisations and individuals in any manner for their
personal gains.
41) NEED FOR MINIMUM
ELIGIBILITY CRITERIA FOR MEDIA ORGANISATIONS & JOURNALISTS TO CARRY OUT THE
INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM
Also it should be
very ideal that the government must fix the minimum eligibility criteria of the
media organisations to carry out investigative journalism; this measure is
necessary to bring more transparency, quality in the investigation journalism
and also reduce the confusion and mis utilisation by all media organisations
which are just created only with one or two journalists just to utilise their
investigative journalism for their individual benefits; as such the
investigative journalism should be allowed to conduct by only those media
organisations who are having more than 10 members of journalists working with
them; only 20 % of the total number of journalists working in any media
organisation should be eligible to work as investigative journalism and all
those journalists should mandatorily undergo training for carrying out the
investigative journalism; also to carry out the investigative journalism the
journalist should have minimum 15 years of experience as a journalist; the
above methods will certainly make the best outcome and the investigative
journalism will be useful for the creation of better governance and better
society.
42) NEED FOR RECORDING
OF ALL THE TELEPHONE CONVERSATION DETAILS BY ALL JOURNALISTS THEMSELVES, MAKING
IT MANDATORY THAT ALL JOURNALISTS USE ONLY ONE/ TWO PHONES WHICH WHERE SUPPLIED
BY THE MANAGEMENT OF THE MEDIA, ALL THE INBOUND AND OUT BOUND CALLS SHOULD BE
EXPLAINED TO THE CONCERNED EDITORS IN THEIR ORGANISATION IN WRITING ON WEEKLY
BASES. ALSO THE DETAILS OF INBOUND AND OUT BOUND E-MAILS. EDITORS SHOULD KEEP
THE RECORDS FOR OVER 30 YEARS.
Also it should be
made mandatory in order to create absolute discipline and transparency of
dealings of all the journalists working in the media organisation to ensure
their dealings with different people in the society are legitimate, authorised
and they are full working for the organisations promoting the true journalistic values and do not mis use
their position as the journalist, that all the journalists should be made to
record the telephonic conversations in
brief and submit to the editors of the organisation on weekly bases for each
call they made or received; the details of all in bound and all out bound calls
of the official mobile phone of the journalist which was supplied by the media
organisation; also media organisation should know the details of the personal
mobile phone of each journalists, all journalist working in media organisations
are barred to print their personal mobile phone numbers in their visiting cards
and also must mandatorily use only official mobile phone for all journalistic
related works; Also the case is same
regarding the e-mails of the journalists; this method will certainly
make the journalists are accountable to their organisations and function
without any self interests.
43) NEED FOR MANDATORY
MAINTENANCE OF DAILY DAIRY BY ALL THE JOURNALISTS AND RECORD THEIR VISITS AND
CONVERSATIONS AND SUBMIT TO THE MEDIA MANAGEMENTS ON WEEKLY BASES
In addition to the
above mentioned maintenance of the telephonic conversations and e-mails; also
it should be made mandatory that all the media organisations must mandatorily
make all the journalists maintain the daily dairy of the visits and the purpose
and outcome of the visits to various places to meet various persons or to
obtain the details or any material evidence or any information or taking a picture
etc; these details should be made soon after the visit, these details should be
on exact time bases, these daily dairy details should be either up loaded every
day to the computer system for information and monitoring of the editor or
should submit the hand written dairy on weekly bases; this method will
certainly make the journalists function absolutely in the lines of transparent
manner and all their works will be prior information where ever necessary and
are in the perfect knowledge of their editors. This will certainly eliminate
any mis use of authority by either journalist or the editors as in case of any
wrong happening both are accountable for their actions.
44) NEED FOR FIXING
MINIMUM WOKING EXPERIENCE TO BECOME EDITOR OF ANY MEDIA ORIGINATION BOTH PRINT
& ELECTRONIC MEDIA
Also it should be
made mandatory that each media organisation whether it is a print media or
electronic media should mandatorily maintain the ratio of editorial staff to
the journalists; all the editors should be mandatorily possess a journalism
degree and also must have at least 18 years of experience with minimum age of
40 years; all the existing as well as newly establishing future organisations
need to maintain these minimum standards, this measure ensures that all the editors
are well experienced and fully mentally trained/acquired experience to provide
better output from the inputs supplied by the journalists, they can better
judge what is the best and what is not instantly within the guidelines of BEA or other norms; this will enable quality
non controversial, balanced approach
news at all times
45) NEED FOR MANDATORY
AUDIT OF THE ALL THE NEWS AGENCIES BY THE GOVERNMENT MEDIA AUDITORS FOR
ENSURING MINIMUM STANDARDS ARE MAINTAINED AND FOR ENSUING THE LEGITIMATE
SOURCING OF INPUTS BY THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS
Also it should be
made mandatory audit of the news agencies by private auditors as well as
government auditors, the reason being all the media is directly linked to the
people and has tremendous influence on the society and also influencing the
governments through positive pressure on the government through creation of
awareness among the people; as such it should be the duty of the media
organisations to maintain the minimum fixed standards, in order to ensure the
standards are maintained an audit should be performed for the verification of
minimum standards existence like the office space, the facilities extended by
the media organisations to the journalists and employees, the quality of the
input and output on random bases whether
the inputs to the news are sourced legitimately and responsibly or not, whether
the ratio of journalists on field to the number of staff at the editorial is
maintaining or not, whether minimum no of journalists exists for carrying out
the investigative journalism by
experienced journalists etc etc; this measure will certainly improve the
quality of the media output and also makes the media to act only on legitimate
sourced information, less scope for unnecessary sensationalisation from unauthorised/
illegal sourcing of information obtained through ether bribery for the
officials/ lower staff / literally stolen information from organisations
supplied by the staff of that government/ private / individual which is
criminal, illegal and gross violation of responsibility of the employee of that
particular organisation to theft the information to provide it to media,
regarding any matter presented as news and terming as “our sources” need to be
curtailed and completely banned in order into inculcate discipline and
legitimacy in the people, as the one who is preaching the values and legitimacy
to the people also should follow?????????? It is not to curtail freedom of
information to prevent the wrong done by might as in some cases it is very
difficult to un earthen the culprits only informal anonyms calls /information
gives leads but that also should be legitimately used by the media and do
investigation before presenting the news; correction in the system of
governance will not occur due to sensetanilisation through presenting stolen
information to ill-gotten information, but can occur through the RTI or other
official mode of communication in case of both private and government
organisation and in case of any suspicion on the private organisations not providing
the information the media should complaint to the concerned government
authorities with any kind of preliminary information received from any quarters
by them to government agencies to get their suspicion proved and then to be
presented as news. Also it should be
made mandatory that if any media organisation seeks any information from any
government organisation in writing irrespective of RTI, it should be the duty
of the government to provide the information if the information seeking is not
sensitive and will not affect the ongoing process like tender bidding or fixing
of prices etc or any other secrete information, also it should be the duty of
the government organisations to take immediate appropriate necessary action on
the private organisations based on the written complaints from the media
organisations with a maximum period of 30 days.
46) NEED FOR STRICTER
REGULATIONS FOR THE USE OF SPY CAMERAS
BY THE JOURNALISTS AND STING OPERATIONS BY MEDIA ORGANISATION; ALSO MAKING IT A
CRIMINAL OFFENCE TO USE SPY CAMERAS BY ANY INDIVIDUAL CITIZENS FOR MAKING NEWS
AND PRESENTING TO MEDIA ORGANISATIONS ???
Also it should be
made mandatory that the use of spy cameras and sting operations by media
journalists requires written permission of of the editors and management of the
media organisation, also for airing/ printing the information regarding the
findings of the sting operation with un edited
feed of the sting operation should be first preview by the BEA &
PMEA and only on 3/4 approval of the BEA
& PMEA members total strength through voting only should be allowed to air/
print in the media the outcome of the sting operation, this measure will
certainly make the un authorised use of the sting details/ findings by any
individual journalist and also by any media origination/management; also it
should be made mandatory that any media organisation can conduct a maximum of
four stings in a calendar year with one
sting per quarter and passage of each quarter lapses the right to conduct that
number of sting (i.e in first two quarters if no sting operation was made then
/initiated then the media organisation can do maximum of two stings in the next
two quarters of the year). Also all other media in the BEA/ PMEA should use the
sting details and outcome of the sting operation at least after one day of the
original sting operator media presents it to is readers/viewers; Also it should
made a criminal non bail able offence for all the common citizens to use the
spy cameras in any public places and government / private offices and also
presentation of any spy cameras recorded visuals to the media or media media
sourcing the visuals from common citizens obtained the visuals through spy
cameras?????????;also it should be made mandatory the courts should not consider
any un authorized visual from any un authorized spy cameras as evidence in any
trail of any case. As it becomes a fashion for many to buy a spy camera pen
with few hundreds of rupees or any small gadget and talk something in private
and make it a sensation??????????????
47) NEED FOR MANDATORY
MAINTENANCE OF E-PAGES OR E-PROGRAMMES
BY MEDIA ORGANISATIONS ABOUT THEIR DAILY PUBLISHED PAPERS OR DAILY PROGRAMMES
AIRED
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media organisations whether print or electronic media
should mandatorily maintain the web site with e-pages and e- programmes and
should provide the day’s paper in the e format, also the electronic channels
should up load the previous hour news bulletins to the e-news of the particular
electronic channel (if any additions on the pervious news); this will certainly
ensure more number of people are able to read/ view the news as the entire
country is now having the internet facility with broad band reaching even
remote villages and most of the mobile phones in India in near future are
totally internet facility and many millions can use the mobile internet. This facility will enable the media
organisations to have better opinion polls on day to day matters of importance to
strengthen the social system and also system of governance through knowing the
opinion of large section of people.
48) NEED FOR CREATION
& MAINTENANCE OF ACHIEVE E-LIBRARY BY ALL THE MEDIA
ORGANISATIONS FOR THEIR INFORMATION PRESENTED IN THE NEWS PAPERS AND IN THE
ELECTRONIC MEDIA FROM AT LEAST PAST 10 YEARS ONWARDS AND ALSO KEEP EVERY DAY
PRINTED/AIRED INFORMATION; THIS UNIFIED MEDIA E- LIBRARY SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE
TO GENERAL PUBLIC; ALSO THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS SHOULD MAINTAIN SEPARATE E-
LIBRARY WITH ALL INPUT MATERIAL OF THE EDITORS OF THE ALREADY AIRED/PRINTED
INFORMATION WHICH SHOULD BE ACCESSIBLE TO ALL THE JOURNALISTS OF ANY
ORGANISATION ONLY
Also it should be
made mandatory that all the media organisations should maintain the e-archive
of their previous news papers / news programmes on the internet, the e-
archives should be from minimum 10 years back and should be stored for at least
30 years, this can be made through the digitalization of the old additions of
the news papers and news aired in the media on topic wise i.e politics, economy
& business, sports, science and technology etc etc; this measure will
ensure that people can easily get the information regarding the particular
subject, this also enables that the media operators cannot go back on their
previous published/ aired views / information as the information is easily
available to the people about that particular media organisation news paper /
electronic media. This measure ensures that all the media operators are very
alert and attentive in presenting the news to the people; Also this enables the
other media journalists to do further investigation on any matters already
presented in some media with some information, they can approach the editors of
that media through the BEA/PMEA for the source code data for carrying out
further investigation, this measure will certainly ensure that media
organisations them self do almost full investigation and present the matters
and also no issues raised in media will vanish after some time.
49) NEED FOR RTI
APPLICABILITY FOR ALL NEWS CHANNELS AS FAR AS INFORMATION ON ANY ISSUE RAISED
IN THE MEDIA, AS IT SHOULD BE THE DUTY & RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MEDIA TO
REVEAL ITS INFORMATION, AS IT IS INVITING FROM THE PEOPLE TO SHARE THE
INFORMATION THE SAME WAY IT ALSO SHOULD RECIPROCATE TO THE PEOPLE THROUGH RTI,
ABOUT THE MEDIA ORGANISATION AND OTHER MATTERS OF PUBLIC IMPORTANCE
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media organisations fall under the RTI, and any citizen
can seek the information from the media organisation for the details of the
programme / information printed/aired in the news for their back ground check
or research or sourcing of the information to air/print the programme with
certain limitations in case of private to private business matters and all
other government related matters should mandatorily should be under RTI and
also the RTI should cover whether the
journalist involved has taken prior written permission of the editor to visit
any place which the programme was aired or whether the programmed aired through
the sting operation has the approval of the BEA/PMEA or what is the outcome of
the government audit on the media organisation etc; this method will certainly
boost the confidence in the people about the media for maintaining the
standards and absolute transparency in their operations. Since all media is
dealing with the public and they should set examples for others to be
transparent in their system of administration to have absolute moral
authority?????????????
50) NEED FOR
DECLARATION OF ASSETS BY ALL PERSONS IN
MEDIA MANAGEMENT/OWNERSHIP & THE JOURNALISTS (BOTH EMPLOYED &
FREELANCE) IN THE WEBSITE OF THE ORGANISATION & ASSOCIATIONS, NEED TO
PROVIDE DETAILED EXPLANATION FOR THE RISE AND GROWTH OF ASSETS OF MEDIA
MANAGEMENT, JOURNALIST & THEIR FAMILY MEMBERS FROM THE START OF THEIR
CARRIER TO TILL A PARTICULAR DATE EVERY YEAR.
Also it should be
made mandatory that all major share holders/directors of the media
organisations, and all journalists should mandatorily declare their individual
and immediate family members assets, the immediate family members include the
parents, the spouse and children both married and un married. The details
should include the movable and immovable assets and must explain in detail the
source of income and also the growth formula in case of growth from the day of
they begin their carrier to till the date of declaration, every year should
declare to set example for other three functionaries i.e legislature, executive
and judiciary to do so to bring absolute transparency and accountability to the
public by people in public life; all the details of the assets and wealth of
the journalists should be kept in the media organisation web site as well as
the web site of the journalists association for both employee journalists and
the freelance journalists; all journalist should declare their assets and
income in an affidavit form under the oath;
any wrong declaration/ under valuation/ under declaration/ non
declaration/ non disclosure of information/ concealing of facts etc should lead to suspension / dismissal of
journalist licence; this measure will set an example that who are constantly
fighting for the transparency of other people in public life like the elected
representatives, the government officials should by themselves are clean &
transparent before asking others??? this measure is necessary to remove the
negative opinion about the journalists and all the media managements in the
mindset of many people in the country as many people has the doubts that most
of the journalist enjoy luxury life earned through ill gotten wealth or earned
through their proximity with the bureaucrats and elected representatives and
the existence of an unholy nexus between the journalists, media organisation
managements and the government servants both bureaucrats as well as elected
representatives and also some private business organisations???? Also this
measure will ensure that all the media is completely transparent as of now it
is an open secret that some of the journalist and media organisations are acquiring
assets only through illegal settlements and nexus between the government
officials and elected representatives (these are seen on and off in the news
papers itself that other media organisations are doing this and that using the
position of journalism and blackmail) and because of this kind of persons who
are limited number people are of the impression that the entire media is hand
in glove with the institutions and whatever they are doing is only for the
public eye wash only to get more richer and wealthier as many of the media
organisations never take up the conclusion of the most of the matters exposed
and the matters exposed are remained in dormant stage in the government or
hushed up as these media got their appropriate share for them, or dragooned for
decades in courts; these kind of notions
in the peoples mind can be certainly eliminated through the transparent,
detailed declaration of wealth, assets, how they acquired and the source and
formula for growth of their individual and family assets and income should
bring the absolute confidence in the media in the common people. Also this
gives an opportunity that many people can adopt the same formula of growth to
become richer and wealthier???????????
51) NEED FOR MANDATORY
ONE/TWO HOUR NEWS BULLETINS DAILY TO PROVIDE UP DATES ON PREVIOUS ISSUES RAISED
IN MEDIA AND THEIR FOLLOW UP ACTION BY THE GOVERNMENT/ PRIVATE ORGANISATION IN
ESTABLISHING/ FIXING THE LACUNAS; AS SIMPLY RAISING THE ISSUE AND FORGETTING
AFTER NEW ISSUES COMES WILL NOT SERVE THE PURPOSE; ALSO THE CASE IS SAME WITH
PRINT MEDIA TO DEDICATE 10% OF THE SPACE FOR FOLLOW UP ACTION ON PREVIOUS
ISSUES ON DAILY BASES.
Also it should be
most ideal to make it mandatory that all media organisations both national and
regional electronic media should mandatory provide one hour by the national
media and two hours by the regional news channels to provide the follow up
action / updates on action taken/taking measures by the government as well as
private organisations on the issues raised in the media previously; without which keep on raising the
issues every day without any follow up action and the measures taken by the
government private organisations will not serve the purpose, this measure will
also bring confidence in the people in the media organisation as most of the
important corruption issues are being vanished from the media after some
period?????????, also this measure will bring more confidence in the
governments for the immediate quick actions in fixing the lacunas and and
rectifying the draw backs/ mistakes to get justice to the people will certainly
get more appreciation from the people; as such it should be made mandatory that
the media should mandatorily present the follow up action news every day; as
far as the print media is concerned it should mandatorily devote 10% of the
total news space every day to write about the follow up action of the previous
issues raided by the print media and other electronic media
52) NEED FOR DOUBLE THE
PUNISHMENTS THEN THE NORMAL INDIVIDUALS FOR ANY CRIMES OF WHAT SO EVER NATURE
BY THE JOURNALISTS FAILED IN DISCHARGING THEIR DUTY AS A JOURNALIST
Also it should be
ideal that in order to bring absolute transparency in the media organisations
the punishments for the wrong doers in the media organisations either the
management or employees or journalists should be liable for double the
punishments as they are deceiving millions of people making them to undergo
acute stress and mental agony through their wrong doings for their personal
gains as people believe whatever aired in the media is true to the core and
such cases cheating the innocent common people with concealing of facts or
wrong information or bias information completely breaching the trust and
confidence of the people in the fourth estate should be punished severely; the punishments should be
double than the normal punishments; this
measure will make that all the media organisations, the journalist are alert
every time and are more transparent and they practice what they preach and be a
role model and example for other people in the country
53) NEED FOR ISSUE OF
BIO-METRIC FINGER PRINT ID CARDS FOR ALL THE JOURNALISTS; INSTALLATION OF BIO
METRIC READERS AT ALL GOVERNMENT OFFICES AND RESIDENCES OF TOP BUREAUCRATS AND
ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES
Also it should be
more ideal to issue the biometric finger print stored electronic chip based identity cards for all
the journalist; all the government offices / political party offices where the
regular press briefings happen should have bio metric card readers which are
integrated to the computer system of the
data base of the journalist association to ensure only authorised persons who
are journalist only will attend the media briefings in the government
departments and various ministries of government and in political party organisations; this will certainly remove the
un necessary nuance due to non authorised persons and non journalists entering
the media meetings in the cover of fake media identity cards to create the nuisance;
also the electronic chip based cards are useful for entry of all the media
persons for entry in all government organizations by making it mandatory that
all government organisations should install the biometric entry and exist
system at the entrance of these offices to ensure their employees attend the
duties in time and leave the office after the duty time, these government bio
metric systems should have the data of the local journalists and also should be
connected online to the journalists association for ensuring the authentication
of any journalist and also for recording the visit of the journalist to the
government offices. This measure will certainly bring more transparency and
accountability of the journalists visiting the government offices; also it
should be made mandatory that all elected representatives MLA/MLC/MP should
have the CC cameras at the entrance of the official residence and personal
residence and the bio metric card reader and all the government officials and
the journalist visiting the elected representatives should mandatorily swipe at
the entrance to record their visit and take the visit record slip and submit it
to the editor of their organisation to ensure that their visit is legitimate
and authorised; alternatively BEA & PMEA should keep mobile unit of bio
metric finger print unit to all the places of media briefings to register the
presence of authorised persons to enter the media briefings. This measure will
certainly bring the desired change in the function of the media organisations
and journalists and certainly receive people’s appreciation for their
transparency in their operations.
54) NEED FOR MANDATORY
SUPPLY OF LATEST HIGH END STANDARD 3G/4G MOBILE PHONE AND LAPTOP/TABLET PC WITH
KEYPAD TO ALL THE JOURNALISTS WITH UNLIMITED USAGE OF INTERNET UPLOAD &
DOWNLOAD FACILITY BY ALL MEDIA ORGANISATIONS WITH CUG AMONG ALL JOURNALISTS OF
ALL ORGANISATIONS; ALSO FOR ALL THOSE JOURNALISTS IN PRINT MEDIA SHOULD BE
SUPPLIED WITH LATEST LASER JET PRINTERS AT THEIR HOME
Since this period
is fully technology revolution and communication is the main stream, as such
all the journalists should be provided with 3G/4G latest high end mobile phone
and laptop/tablet PC of specific standards may be of different manufacturers
and also free un limited upload/ download facility; also providing within the
media organisation and among all media organisation the caller user group (CUG)
communication facility should be created among the journalists for better
communication among the journalists for sharing of the information; also for the journalists in the print media
should be provided with latest laser jet printers at their home; this will
enable the journalists will be able to
communicate properly and accurately and the information is at their finger tips
and this be able to help in better news presentation by the media
operators.
55) NEED FOR PROVIDING
FREE CONVEYANCE TO ALL JOURNALISTS BY THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS WHEN THEY ARE ON
DUTY.
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media organisations provide the free conveyance to all
the journalists in duty from the office to the place of the reporting and back
to the office; in case of female working journalists the conveyance should be
provided from the residence to the office and to the reporting place and back
to the residence, as the timings of the journalists are irregular the safety of
the female journalists should be the responsibility of the media organisation;
in case the media organisations does not have the sufficient number of vehicles
then the media organisations should provide the loan to the journalists to
obtain the vehicle of their choice and provide the “fuel top up cards” of
almost all the oil company petrol/diesel pump stations and provide the top up
cards filled by the media organisations to each of the journalist rather than
providing the cash in the salary towards fuel expenses for ensuring better
utilisation of the fuel and ensure that there will not be any burden on the
journalists as they may not carry the cash/ bank cards all the time, and the
petro card makes them move to the places if they have sufficient fuel un their
vehicle irrespective of money in the pocket??????? As most of the journalists
has the spirit by default in them to do something better for the society
56) NEED FOR MANDATORY MAINTENANCE OF PANTRY/MINI
SNACKS BAR FOR SELF PREPARATION OF COFFEE/TEA, AND PROVIDE CLEAN Water AND
SMALL EATS LIKE BISCUITS, FRUITS READY TO MAKE OAT MEALS, NUDELLS ETC IN EVERY
OB VAN OF MEDIA BY THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS AND ALSO IN EVERY VEHICLE USED TO

made mandatory that all the media organisations should mandatorily provide the
facility in every OB Van of the media and also in every vehicles used to
transport the media persons especially the journalists the provision for
coffee/tea preparation, sufficient quantity of water, the snacks like biscuits,
fruits, ready to make oat meals, etc etc to ensure the journalists can prepare
the tea/coffee on the transit and also have the food in case of no nearby places
to have food especially in rural areas and muficalls, and also busy activity in
cities sometimes based on their location
and situation at the place of reporting; this measure will certainly make them
feel much relaxed as far as food is concerned, it also helps them to main body
stamina better to some extent rather than without food, also this method will
certainly reduce the dependence of the media persons on the canteens of the
places of visit like government offices, the political offices and also some times
to the free supply of the snacks in the media briefs by the political party
offices and government offices to please the journalists?????????????; this may
lead to little bias or soft corners towards the persons whom the media
journalist supposed to interview/ question ????????????, which can be prevented
through media organisation providing to them healthy snacks rather than making
their journalists depend up on the un healthy oily foods such as “somas, alu
bond”, etc etc offered by the others.
57) NEED FOR EXTENDING
THE FACILITY OF CONCESSIONAL CANTEENS LIKE MILITARY CANTEENS FOR ALL
JOURNALISTS & EMPLOYEES OF MEDIA ORGANISATIONS FOR PROVISIONS AND OTHER
NEEDS WITH LOCATION OF THESE CANTEENS IN EVERY DISTRICT AT THE DISTRICT/CITY
HEADQUARTERS
Also it should be
ideal that all the persons working in the media organisations from the back end
employees to the journalists should be provided with concessional canteens
(more or less like modern super markets) for the regular provisions like the
military canteens which provide the concessional food and other consumable
items for their soldiers and other staff (of course no sale of liquor/alcohol
to the journalists) with a ceiling on their purchases which should not exceed
50% of their basic salary to ensure this facility will be best utilised; this
is necessary as the journalist are also working for the betterment of the
society, and their services to be given due recgnization & respect and also
this measure of concessional canteens will certainly reduce the financial
burden on the journalists and they will
be able to concentrate more on the public issues and also make them more
inclined towards straight forwardness rather than thinking of making some extra
money than the salary through favouritism / bias etc etc to have better living
for their family.
58) NEED TO PROVIDE 1%
SEATS RESERVED FOR THE CHILDREN OF THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS WITH FIRST
PREFERENCE TO THE JOURNALISTS IN ALL THE CENTRAL GOVERNMENT SCHOOLS LIKE
“KENDRIYA VIDLAYAS” AND ALSO ALL THE SCHOOLS RUN BY THE STATE GOVERNMENT AND
0.5% RESERVED IN PRIVATE SCHOOLS AND COLLAGES ON MERIT BASES AMONG THE CHILDREN
APPLIED IN THIS CATEGORY
Also it should be
ideal that the government must either provide a separate school/s for the
journalists children or there should be 1 % quota in the central government
operated krendriya vidlayas and the state government operated schools in each
district/city/block/mandal, only for the children of the working journalists on
the bases of merit of the children who have applied in this category,; also it
should be ideal that government must ensure that private educational
institutions up to degree provide 0.5% of the total strength of the seats in
their institutions or minimum one seat
for the journalists children and the selection of children in this
category should be purely on merit among the children applied in this category
and the fee should be either concessional or normal depending upon the income
of the parents; this measure will certainly make the journalists major burden
of searching the school and also the heavy school fees in the private schools
will be reduced and they will be able to concentrate more on public issues,
also there should concession fee for the journalists children up to degree; this measure will certainly helpful not only
for the journalists by a lot to the common public as the journalists will be
able to concentrate on more productive work than family worries reduction.
59) NEED FOR ISSUE OF
FAMILY HEALTH CARDS FOR JOURNALISTS AND EMPLOYEES OF MEDIA ORGANISATIONS
Also is is more
ideal that all the media organisations employees, journalists should be
provided with family health insurance cards, premium amount should be shared
among the media organisation and the government, party from the media organisation
side and partly from the government side, this facility will certainly further
ease the journalists to function their duties better as they don’t have too
much bother about the family health care, as most of the journalists are on the
move in search of information????????
60) NEED FOR ALLOCATION
OF HOUSE PLOTS FOR ALL JOURNALISTS OF MINIMUM 10 YEARS OF WORKING EXPERIENCE
Also it should be
ideal that government must provide a house plot to all working journalist only
which is non saleable and non transferrable, in case the allotter dose not
utilize for their self; also the government must provide the constructed
government house to the working journalists of all recognized media
organisations maintaining minimum journalists and ratio of employees per journalists
on minimum rent to the journalists in district head quarters / city which will
enable the journalists to deliver their duties better.
61) NEED FOR FIXING THE
RETIREMENT AGE FOR JOURNALISTS AS 65 YEARS OR 44 YEARS OF WORKING EXPERIENCE
WHICHEVER IS FIRST APPLICABLE.
Also it should be
ideal to fix the retirement age for all the working journalists in the media
organisation (other than free lance journalists) like any other three estates
of government like executive i.e bureaucrats and judiciary, of course need to
have retirement age for politicians much needed???????; the age for
retirement of journalists should be 65
years or maximum working period of 44 years which ever first comes; this
measure is very necessary to provide way for younger journalists to grown in
their carrier in the media organisations, also to understand the latest
technological developments, all the retired journalist from the media
organisations can become free lance journalists and some of them can be in the
BEA, PMEA at different levels i.e district, state and national level to provide
expert advice rather than in routine
work of reporting and editing.
62) NEED FOR CREATION
OF PENSION FOR RETIRED JOURNALISTS AND FREE RAIL/ BUS TRAVEL OR CONCESSIONAL
AIR TRAVEL FOR RETIRED JOURNALISTS; ALSO TO PROVIDE CGHS FOR ALL RETIRED
JOURNALISTS & THEIR SPOUSE FOR FREE
MEDICINE.
Also it should be
most ideal that all the retired journalists should be provided with the

media organisation, Also all the retired journalists should be provided with
free bus travel within the district/city of stay after retirement and also for
any intercity operated by the state road transport departments; also the
retired journalists should be provided with free sleeper rail journey anywhere
in India; also the retired journalists should be provided with concessional air
travel by the national air carrier, all these free bus tickets should be for
total year within the city unlimited, up to 24 single journeys or 12 up &
down for inter city & out station bus services use and 12 single journeys
or 6 up & down rail journeys anywhere in India by sleeper class or the
equivalent amount should be deducted from the fare amount in case they wish to
travel in higher class journeys, also there should be concessional air tickets
are only for the individual journalists maximum 6 single journeys / 3 up &
down journeys as wished by the retired journalists, the concessional air ticket
should be only basic charges without the tax component, this facility should be
extend lifelong for all the retired journalists, Also it should be ideal to
provide all retired journalists extending the facility of CGHS to provide free
medicine to them and their spouse; these facility will certainly be useful to
the senior retired journalists as a
respect, recognisation to their services rendered to the betterment of the
people of the country in their best possible manner.
63) NEED FOR
RESPONSIBLE SOURCING OF THE INFORMATION OFFICIALLY, OTHER WISE PEOPLE ARE OF
THE OPINION THAT MEDIA CAN BRIBE THE SMALL TIME OFFICIALS SUCH AS THE DISPATCH
CLERKS OR THE COMPUTER OPERATORS OR RECORD ASSISTANTS OR STENOS OR SOME SENIOR
OFFICIALS EITHER SECRETLY GIVING ON THEIR OWN OR THROUGH SMALL BRIBING OF THE
MEDIA ETC WHICH IS UN ETHICAL/ ILLEGAL?
Also it should be
made mandatory that all Media should source the information from legitimate
sources only, even though it receives information from different sources which
may be legitimate or not, or formal or informal, then media organisations
should re-verify the information through legitimate way before presenting the
news to the common public, this measure is very necessary to inculcate
discipline among the common people as well in the system of governance, as in
simplest words that buying & re selling (even at zero cost) the theft
material is wrong?????? (in case of any high profile/ influential persons in
government/private involved in wrong acts and then either the staff or anyone
who knows the information just need to pass on the information either orally or
through righting in the larger interest of people, but media should not
encourage them to theft the information from that organisation and pass it on
to them it may be wrong doing by the other party but no employee/person should
do theft for media?), also what one preaches and works for a cause should be
practiced by them, in such case media organisations working for bringing out
the lacunas and dirt in the system to clan and fix the lacunas for common good,
then media organisations being a fourth estate should right royally obtain the
information pertaining to any issue of the governance matters both private and
public importance from any organisation whether government or private and
present it to the people, obtaining the information from theft sources or from
un authorised and illegal way by just getting the copies of original files, in
some cases some secret information from the un authorised persons of any
organisation revealing un officially/obtained either by the media organisations
through their management techniques or through some disguised employees mostly lower rank or irrespective of rank in
that particular government/ private organisation, also without actually
verified it officially the information is presented both in the print and
electronic media is how far justifiable ???????????; it is almost the same that
media is encouraging theft?????? The theft done by media organisations in one
or the other way is justifiable??????????? whereas theft by a small time theft
for the self for earning bread to their family is punishable?????????; in case
media organisations feel and justify that their organisations are filled with
people with full wisdom and rationale and every journalist is a saint like
persons and are straight forward and as such their way of doing is only high
way and none can question them, if question the media then most of the media
will attack the individual/
organisations and completely try to de fame to create a fear psychosis for the individual or organisation
is how far justifiable ??????????? If the same media is presenting and
encouraging the dacoit/theft in the government organisations and private
organisation for steeling the information???????? Every media organisation
persons especially in the higher ranks in the organisation should do thorough
self introspection in this regard and self justification of wrong act is very
sinful and criminal and un pardonable?????????; if they feel justified by
saying that since they are doing in the larger interest of common public
anything illegitimate is ok??????? Then people who are robbers doing robin hood
type robbing the wealthy and distributing it to the common people should not be
punishable by the law of the land as the robber also doing the robbery for the
common good only that too for poor only?????????;
64) NEED FOR
RESPONSIBLE PRESENTATION OF MEDIA ORGANISATIONS WITHOUT WASTING THE PRECIOUS
TIME OF MEDIA AS WELL AS COMMON PEOPLE ON PETTY ISSUES UNNECESSARILY SENSATIONALISATION
OF THE ISSUES AND CREATING HATE-RATE/ INDIRECTLY CAUSING PUBLIC DISTURBANCE
THUS WASTING MILLIONS OF MAN-HOURS, FUEL, ELECTRICITY, MONEY ETC AND VIOLENCE
IN SOME CASES ON SLIP OF TUNG BY SOME INDIVIDUALS ON SOME MATTERS; ALSO NEEDS
TO SERIOUSLY FOLLOW UP AND EXPOSE ON HATEMONGERING IN CASE OF COMMUNAL ISSUES
AND ALSO IF ANY THING RELATED TO
NATIONAL SECURITY.
Also some of the
media are literally after some individuals in public life may be the
politicians of any political party or any religious institute or any other
individuals or any elected representative
after all everyone is human beings will naturally has the tendency to do
some error in their life, if on any bad day for those individual slips Tung and
express some point of views which may not be good in taste for some section of
people/in general (till date other than hatemongering almost all the
individuals whose words are being contriversilaized by the media are only in
the interest of the larger section they have spoken at length in their local area and they sited some
examples which may not be good in public life and for that media projecting as
if they are total villains and criminals and deserve to be punished, media
dragging them unnecessarily to the streets is how far justifiable ??????????-
need serious, rigorous introspection by the media ???????????), in a country
where freedom of expression is equal for every individual, then the media is
completely after the person to get repeatedly putting pressure on the
individual as well as the organisation
where the individual working / represents to take action against the
individual or completely de fame that individual/organisation / political party
in the public good as if the individual
has done a big crime?????????; only people with wisdom can do self less work in
larger interest?????????, as long as the slip of tung dose not relate to the
threat to internal security of the country or dose not a religious hate speech
causing communal hate rate and causing communal violence it should not be made
large issue???; Such wrong acts should be severely viewed and the media
organisation licence should be suspended immediately and the appropriate
necessary action including the barring the journalists responsible for these
acts to be lifelong ban on conducting journalism will certainly rectify this
lacuna and it will be possible for media to a lot better works then jumping on
this silly issues which makes people will get absolute faith in the fourth
estate.
65) NEED FOR RATIONAL
PRESENTATION OF NEWS BY THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS- BEA & PMEA SHOULD TAKE
STRICTER DECISION ON THEIR OWN IN THIS REGARD TO DO BETTER UTILISATION OF
ENERGY OF JOURNALISTS FOR BETTERMENT OF SOCIETY
Also what is
acutely lacking in the media organisations is rational behaviour and
presentation, in the absence of rational most of the media organisations are
more or less like mobocrcy and are crazy in presenting the single point news
for maximum length of time without actually focusing on the root cause of the
issues and curbing the roots they are mostly focusing on that particular
issues??????; the live example is the case of “nirbiya”, even when nirbiya is
very sadly passed away for the brutality of the bruits, peoples anger on the
road is happing is very justifiable but for the anger of the people for
what????????? to do justice to the girl by bringing the culprits to justice-
will by hanging the culprits alone can solve all the issues of rape and stop
happening of rape?????, Also to ensure that such incidences does not happen
again on any girl child in the country???? Out of all incidence of atrocities
against women, more heinous crime like rape ??????????, but did the media
organisations really interested in archiving the objective of the common people
protesting on the streets to protect every girl child in the country to stop
atrocities against women & girl child?????????, if really media interested
in the pursuing the peoples objectives then they could have taken the feed from
two or three media and rest of them draw the feed and air appropriately and the
make use of reaming 80 % journalists to be after the red light areas, to be
after the open prostitution in the form of advertisements in the so called
print media (full body massage, escort services relax at home or hotel etc etc
) and might have tried to curtail the violence and forced sex trade where
millions of women and young girls are being raped every day on an average of 6
times daily and getting tourchers from the brothels ???????? Did media made any
sorts of efforts in this direction??????????? and over 3 lack girls & women
are missing, did the media done anything to rescue and rectify this blunder of
the society and callousness of government in curbing the prostitution/flush
trade and red light areas?????????, no????????, instead they are wasting the
precious media time on just after some slip of the Tung on women’s issues by
some politicians and god men and making it a big issue and only focusing on it??????????is
it not waste of time if introspected seriously and this energy/time can be
better utilized for social messaging and awareness- as all these discussions on
slip of tung mostly got hush up with an apology or after some time the issue
will die naturally like a bubble in the flowing water??????; also once the
“nirbiya” case came to trail is there any necessary that the entire media
present near the court and intend to present minute by minute information on
the happing of proceedings in the court????????????? yes people may be curious
in knowing the information about the progress of the case, but it does not mean
that the entire media should be present to take the court proceedings news
minute by minute ??????????, instead cannot the media take feed from one or two
media and rest focus on various atrocities faced by women in various locations
in Delhi/ metros and capital on the brothels and prostitution rackets?????????,
some time back some stories aired on prostitution rocket in Delhi, but after
some time the same is dis appeared ?????????,everyone is very sympathy towards
the sad incidence of “ nirbiya” but it does not mean that only waste the entire
media on a single case when you have an opportunity to make the peoples wish
fulfil i.e. to make all women in the
country are free from the atrocities ?????????, many intellectuals has the
doubt that do media might be
thinking that who are in the flush trade
or prostitution are mostly willingly doing ?????????? hence no need to bother
about them, and women and girls safety means it only for those who are in normal
life in urban and rural areas ?????; the MHA GOI itself telling that over 30 lacks women and
children are in forced flush trade in India and over 3 lack girl children are
missing in the country till date ?????????? Do media knew whether they are raped
like the “nirbiya” or not?????????, so rational approach in very issue is
required from the media organisations ???????????? Otherwise over a period of
time media may lose the confidence of people and also the culprits may not have
the fear for the media and there is danger of more atrocities and crime may
occur in the country in different form.
Also the cases of
any unfortunate incidence of any small kid fallen in the un used/ un caped bore
well hole in a remote place in any state then entire media all national and all
regional media will live telecast for almost two/three days continuously;
making the millions of peoples who are watching leaving them with anxiety and
stress in their minds making them to spend lot of human sub conscious
energy???????? Even after that millions of energy of sub conscious mind is
pumped the survival is only a miracle and rare cases it occurs ?????????; as in
majority of the cases the survival of the kid is very remote as it is fact that
if any bore well/ hole deep under the ground is left un used due to either the
depth of bore is very high or may be rocky or water may not exist and also
under the earth at certain depth the gases are poisonous and also lacks the
circulation of air below certain depth, un less the oxygen is provided within
minutes the survival chances are very remote and the cases of providing
immediate oxygen is very next to impossible
as it takes time to notice the missing child, also to confirm that child
is fallen in the bore well and then they have to inform to the authorities
concerned, then authorities if takes immediate action need to assess the depth
of the bore and then to bring the oxygen cylinders to supply through that
length of oxygen tubes and in that quantities till the parallel hole is drilled
which may take several hours and till that time the child gas to be
survived??????? For this the entire media reporting the incidence continuously
for at least 36 to 72 hours is how far justifiable?????????; instead they can
take the feed from one or two news channels (if 100 media channels present
there reporting live by each of the reporter will digging occur in jet speed in
minutes or do the position of anything changes ???????????) and that too only
should present the news in the regional channels in that region / state and
only as an information once in the national channel and only providing the
updates in the subsequent news bulletins if required?????; they can better
utilize the time of the reporters who was deputed to that site as well as other
reports in different places to go around and create awareness on the same issue
to ensure education of the gram panchays to close all the un used bore wells
and cap the un used bore wells ??????????? Did how many medias has done this????????????
as the most of the news channels reaches / viewed only by urban areas and urban
people compared to rural areas then how can they save the kid in the trouble or
how can the majority of the rural areas get information that since such
incidence minute by minute has happened and to be cautious and order them to
cap all un used bore wells?????????? Not certainly through national cannels,
even not the regional channels, for that matter even not the DD is not reaching
the majority of the places in India????????; only through conducting the
village to village / GP to GP awareness programmes need to be conducted, the
initiative should be taken by the media with the help of NGO’s, SHG and the
government officials can create the awareness???? Did how many media done
this???? As such media need to be very rational in their approach and
presentation to the issues ???????????; BEA & PMEA should have the
authority to put gag order on media on many matters like this to do this, or
something else which are in the media job is not just presentation of news or
finding the lacunas but also to create the required awareness and ensue that
the necessary steps are taken by the government, the people in fixing the
lacunas in the system. Like this many issues where the media need rational and
responsible presentation and act is necessary.
66) NEED FOR MANDATORY
CONDUCT OF DEBATES AND DISCUSSIONS IN THE UNIVERSITIES AND COLLAGES AND ALSO IN
PUBLIC PLACES EVERY WEEK BY THE MEDIA ORGANISATIONS TO CREATE AWARENESS ON
VARIOUS ISSUES AND ALSO BETTER UNDERSTANDING OF ISSUES OF GOVERNANCE AND ALSO
GETTING THE FEED BACK DIRECTLY FROM LARGE SECTION OF PEOPLE ON VARIOUS MATTERS
INCLUDING THE GOVERNMENT POLICIES
Also it should be
ideal to make it mandatory that media organisations either individually or jointly
dividing the districts/ mandals (by BEA & PMEA) and conduct the public
awareness programmes in all schools/ collages/ universities either jointly or
individually depending up on the number of students and also in the block head
quarters/ larger villages the rights of the individuals, the government support
programmes reaching them or not, also how to have better healthy practices and
maintenance of health and also better agriculture practices, better marketing
etc and also the issues locally to be brought to the notice of the local
government and state government and making the elected representative
accountable for the lacunas and non persuasion of the issues, also to discuss
about the government proposed policies
and taking their view / opinion on the issues etc etc; also to make a
programme for all the schools/ colleges/ universities once in a month to create the awareness regarding the issues/
difficutilites faced by different profession / skilled/ semi skilled labour in
the field of agriculture, mining, energy production, construction etc etc and
make them understand how the they are getting the food at their plate and the
comforts they are enjoying is the effort of millions of people and they owe
them a lot, since whose effort is not known they should be thought to
contribute their best to the country and it will automatically reached the
millions of people who are providing comfort and food for them?????????? this
makes the students, the common citizens in the rural as well urban areas are
better aware of the ground realities and also makes them more responsible
citizens; also this methods will certainly make the elected representatives
behave more responsibility and more available to the people; also this makes
the better frame work of the policies by the government and it takes larger
decisions only based on the larger interest and opinion of the people; also
needed is media should create awareness towards nationalism and regularly make
every citizen especially the youth more especially the students about the
freedom struggle, the constitution rights and national anthem to be thought for
inculcation of communal harmony and values in them.
67) NEED FOR PROVIDING
MEDIA ORGANISATION OWNERSHIP WITH THE AUTHORITY FOR ETHICAL HACKING OF THEIR
EMPLOYEES/ JOURNALISTS WORKING IN THEIR ORGANISATION ON SUSPECTS THROUGH
WRITTEN PERMISSION FROM THE APEX AUTHORITIES / AUTHORITIES IN THE ORGANISATION.
Also it is very
necessary and ideal that media organisation ownerships / the editors should be
provided with the authority for doing the ethical hacking of the journalist’s
e-mails in case of any suspicion about the
journalist for not revealing of the source properly or might be involved
in personal gains using the position of the journalist in that organisation
getting benefits either directly or indirectly or involved in endorsing the
business interests of others pursuing with the government etc as this measure
is necessary since as per earlier views in case government makes all the
elected representatives residences and offices and also all the top bureaucrats
from the district level onwards at their individual residence and offices
installed with the CC camera surveillance and bio metric visitors record, in
addition as mentioned in this document that all journalists visit to any office
or place should have the prior permission,
will certainly restrain the journalists from reaching out to both
private and public personalities as such the internet communication is the best
source to operate; as such the ethical hacking privilege to the media
management will certainly make the journalists fully practice and adhere to the
ethical practise in performing their daily duties. Similarly for all the top management of the
media organisations who are doing ethical hacking for their journalists are
also should be subjected to the ethical hacking either by the government or the
special team constituted in the BEA & PMEA to keep checks & balances in
the entire media system for ensuring every person in the media alert and
practice what they preach/ advocate.
68) NEED FOR CREATION
OF SOCIAL AUDIT TEAM COMPRISING OF PEOPLES REPRESENTATIVES, RETIRED JUDGES AS
WELL AS NGOS AND RETIRED PUBLIC SERVANTS AT VARIOUS LEVELS TO AUDIT THE MEDIA
REPORTS ON THE PRINT AND ELECTRONIC MEDIA TO DETERMINE WHETHER THEY ARE BIASED/
DONE FAVOURITISM TO ANY INDIVIDUAL STORY
Also it should be
ideal to make it mandatory that there should be a social audit team at the
state level and national level comprising of eminent personalities from the
judiciary, political parties, retired media editors and also the NGO’s and also
the retired persons from the CAG, Income
tax, Election commission, etc of a team of 20 persons as far as possible
maintaining the gender equality should have the power to conduct the third party
audit for all the media organisations of certain standard for ensuring the
maintenance of standards and maintenance of ethics and values by the media
organisations (it is very necessary as no one even small school kid will not
believe that if given a self control without any punishments and proper
authority and having the same fraternity
feeling bonded strongly then to show to the common people that everything is
fine and they themselves restrict everything ???????????); all media
organisations should present the records of information pertaining to the news
presented by both print and electronic media before the social audit
team????????? When media organisations are endorsing the demand for “lokpal/
janlokpal” for third party accountability in the system, being the preacher and
advocator of third party audit and also being the fourth estate in the system
and also for possessing the ability to influence the people to a great extent
and also not above judiciary system in the country, when judiciary system
itself has checks and balances with judicial accountability then the media
organisations who are in direct touch with the people should mandatorily should
be audited by the common people and their representatives from various sections
and the audit for checking various parameters and
guidelines were followed by media organisation, should be recorded in camera,
should be made available on the web site of the same media organisation as well
as all the BEA/ PMEA website for bringing absolute transparency in the media
system. This measure will make media to be judicious in their presentation of
news????????.
69) NEED FOR LIFE TIME
BAN OF CORRUPT CHARGES / EXTORTION CHARGES ON ANY JOURNALISTS AND CONFISCATION
OF ASSETS OF THE JOURNALISTS
Also it should be
made mandatory that in case of proven charges that any journalist used his
position as journalist to create personal wealth, disproportionate assets to
his declared /known income sources, may be gained through influencing the
government officials private persons for personal gains either direct gain or
through indirect gain through promoting or endorsing or recommending business /
contract / employment etc and concealing the factual to the media originations
in corruption cases and taking bribes to conceal the facts; also for the
destroying the information for personal befits should be debarred from
practicing as journalist in their life time, this will make the system of media
perfect as of now it is a general common assumption among the people that many
journalists uses their position to make personal wealth and concealing the
facts and information and also uses their proximity with the elected
representatives and government and government officials for their personal
gains. This wrong image should be wiped off from the peoples mind by making it
mandatory that all journalists should reveal their personal assets and wealth
from the beginning of their carrier as a journalist and their family wealth
till date and also describe in detail their growth formula and also must make
every year their wealth and income statements in detail on the web site of the
media organisation as well as journalists association to bring the desired
change in the system.
70) NEED FOR BANNING
THE MEDIA OWNERS ENTERING THE POLITICS/ BEING THE POLITICAL REPRESENTATIVES AS
ALONG AS THEY AND THERE IMMEDIATE FAMILY MEMBERS HOLDING THE MAJOR SHARE IN THE
MEDIA COMPANIES, THERE SHOULD BE COMPLETE BAN ON THE INDIVIDUAL POLITICS TO
HOLD ANY SHARE IN ANY MEDIA GROUP COMPANIES
Also it should be
made mandatory that in order to ensure non biased perfect authentic news is
presented to the people of the country that all the news media ownership should
be barred from entering the politics or whoever individual in the news media
should quit the media business at least 6 years prior to contesting any
election and also 5 years prior to become a primary member of any political
organisation, also the same should be applicable to the immediate family
members of the media should not be
eligible for contesting any election or should not be eligible to become a
primary member in any political organisation to ensure non biased news reaches
the people. This measure is necessary as most of the regional media which is
being owned by political parties and leaders of political parties and elected
representatives are totally one sided in self propaganda and creating hate
political mongering on other political parties and other politicians is happing
in the last few years. As they keep sensationalise some issues which
politically create a favourable situation/ atmosphere/ advantageous to their
party or their owner’s political party, then every other media is indirectly
forced to present the so called sensationalised news which may be in favour or
against the particular media origination owner or their kin & kith, and
providing un necessary popularity to that leader????????? (this is one of the
reason that self regulation of media is failing after all the political leaders
are investing crores or rupees on the media to have biased and self propaganda
and suppress opponents indirectly???????); these days the political leaders
want to be in news whether good or bad about them to be in the peoples mind,
and they will manage the peoples mind set by doing some gimmicks by their money
power and get elected????????? As a
result people are confused and sometimes there are violent clashes between the
party activists of different parties, also because of this the people are not
able to elect the right representatives, as a result the governments formed are
not intended to the real welfare of the people, but only for the welfare of the
self and the few select leaders and also only to safe guard the wealth
acquired, it is an open fact this is happening in reality, as such it should be made mandatory that there should
not be any link between the media ownership and the political party system or
elected representatives.
71) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF CLAIMING THAT EXCLUSIVELY OF ANY MEDIA INTERVIEW OF ANY PUBLIC
FUNCTIONARY/ ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE OR BUREAUCRAT ON THE SO & SO CHANNEL???
Although it is the
duty of the media to present the facts to the people at all times, especially
related to the government and the elected representatives and civil servants
and the general administration, then it is very said that the media
organisations are literally trapped in the competitive game as a result instead
of extending cooperation and without leaving the choice to the people to
patronage the channels based on their presentation skill rather they are depending
on claiming the exclusivity of interviews for the views & reactions of the
elected representatives and the government servants on any issues or governance
matters or any unwanted incidences etc, very sad????????, only when the media
organisation reveals the new programme which are created on its own to educate
the people etc can be claimed exclusive and later on the other news channels
can repeat the same programme with mentioning that courtesy from so and so
media organisation with mention courtesy so and so channel/news paper which
makes their intension of helping the people of the country is possible????????,
only presenting the news to the viewers of a particular channels or readers of
a particular news paper is how far justifiable as it may reach a fraction of
the people in the country ????????????;
it is very necessary that media organisations should attract the
viewership with their skill rather than their claims of exclusivity of
interviews ????????? As the claims of exclusivity are contrary to the very
motto of the media and totally appearing that media works only for commercial interests?
this image should be changed to make people believe the media. If on any
information if the journalist of any media reaches few seconds/minutes more
than any other journalists by over speed driving the vehicle on the travel to
reach the spot and sends the images or video than media claiming that first
time on the channel is how far justifiable????????? Or buy chance if the
journalists of any media happens to be near to the incidence and reports it,
media claim of exclusivity is how far justifiable??????????; also in the case
of any accident or any high profile criminal being put up in the hospital for
check up or treatment, than some media
getting the photo or the small video clip of the individual from the ICU /
hospital closed premises by managing either some doctor or nurse or mostly the
ward boys (as almost everyone is carrying the camera mobile phones??????) and
putting the picture in the immediate running news bulletin with captions as
“breaking news” with back ground music as if something very important
information like earth quake or tsunami is just about to happen be prepared
type then showing that so and so high profile criminal / accident victim was
giving this treatment, that treatment etc and the visual sowing is the
exclusively for the first time on this channel???????????; also some of the
channels go further and leaking the details of the investigation of criminal
accused in police custody, the findings of investigation report supposed to be
produced to the court alone after the completion of police custody; but very
unfortunately they are being presented as breaking news and claimed as
exclusively got for the viewers/ readers of so and so channel/news
paper?????????? How come media can go so low in morale?????? Many educated
people wonder that what the BEA & PMEA doing in this regard?????????? How
much low the media can go if the situation is continued like this in the name
of completion????????; (many people are afraid that in the fix of competition
media may be degrade to that level that when any high profile criminal accused
is in the police custody then they may present the news as the criminal went
this many times to the loo/washroom, the pictures are exclusively on this
channel for our viewers- this is going to happen as in future the government is
going to install the CC cameras in all police stations????????- on letting this
degrading happen then some other media may put the SMS opinion poll that so and
so criminal accused went this many times to the loo/washroom in the night what
is your opinion that is the criminal doing exertion of waste fluids or the
criminal accused doing something else??????????? Send your opinion either A or B
accordingly???????? Do people of the country require this kind of
news?????????) only on any R&D matters the media which has developed on its
own through their investigative journalism can claim that it is first time in
the channel; other than that all government or any other matters the first time
claim/ exclusive claims should be completely barred from the media
presentations; all senior media elders and BEA & PMEA should take a serious
call on this degrading value of the entire journalism thing and curtail this
exclusivity claims for non R&D issues.
72) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF PERSONS IN GOVERNMENT/ ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES GIVING EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS
TO ANY MEDIA WHETHER THE MATTERS RELATED TO GOVERNMENT/ CONSTITUENCY OR ON ANY
INDIVIDUAL ALLEGATIONS
Also it should be
made mandatory that all the government and elected representatives should be
barred from giving exclusive interviews to any media organisation
representatives, they should mandatorily follow and provide interview/ bite on
any matter once they receive any request from the BEA/ PMEA or if they wish to
provide any information on their own then in both the circumstances they should
inform BEA/PEMA to convene a joint media meet and deliver their views and
responding to the quarries etc etc; this is really a healthy practice in the
democracy as the people who elected the representative did not given the
authority to give exclusivity to any particular media organisation whom they
have some good proximity or given authority to be biased towards some media
organisations or biased towards some journalists may be due to their private
friendship or partnerships in business for their kin & kith with them or
due the territory/region/ religion/ caste /language they belong to or for any
individual interests of the representatives in the government and the persons
in the government are for the entire population of the territory and for a
section of people who either watches/ reads the news of a particular media
organisation?????????????; this measure will certainly reduce the biased nature
of the elected representatives or leaking the news to particular news channels
for gaining the more popularity for getting praised by those news channels to
get mileage in the elections etc etc or create a faction or trouble to the
elected governments due to factionalism/ non cooperation in the government to
create trouble for elected governments etc should be completely eliminated;
also this method will certainly lead to reduction of mis-use of authority of
the journalists seeking the favours from the elected representatives as there will not be much scope for frequent
individual visits to the elected representatives in the government and also the
bureaucrats as the news will be same for everyone and for the bureaucrats and
the elected representatives all the journalists are equal.; also this method
will certainly save a lot of precious time for elected representatives, persons
in government by providing the fixed time rather wasting several hours
repeating almost the same answer continuously one after the other channels
????? This measure should be initiated
by the government on priority bases immediately
73) NEED FOR MANDATORY
GATHERING OF FULL FACTUAL INFORMATION, ONLY AFTER EXTENSIVE SCRUTINY BEFORE
AIRING ANY ISSUE; NEED TO SUBMIT THE DETAILS TO BEA/PMEA FOR USE OF THE DATA OF
INVESTIGATION BY THAT MEDIA FOR PROVIDING APPROVAL FOR OTHER MEDIA
ORGANISATIONS TO PRESENT TO THE THEIR VIEWERS/READERS.
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media organisation if wish to present the news on any
issue by themselves or present the news raised by any GOFPI’s (group of
perverted intellectuals) or any persons or institutions through media meetings
on approval of BEA/PMEA, then the media can just put only one simple line on
the points/issues raised such people; the media in case wish to go deep into
the points/issues raised by any persons then the media should thoroughly
investigate and gather the information legitimately, officially and then
scrutiny the information for authenticity and factuality and then only should
present as news to the people; alternatively media also should gather the
information on its own on the points raised by GOFPI’s or re confirm the points
with the origin before airing the complete news, also media should not jump
into conclusions just because it was raised by some GOFPI’s or just because
some other media organisation has raised the issue or presented the issue, all
media organisations (any organisation which presents the news first on any
matter need to submit the authenticity of the news and source to BEA &
PMEA) need to submit all details to BEA
& PMEA for re telecast or print by any other media on the same issue if one
media raised the issue; in all such cases the media organisation first raised
the issue need to submit the investigation details in a nutshell to the BEA/
PMEA in writing, only on the approval of the BEA/ PMEA then only other media
can present the same news; (media airing the news is a almost like an arrow
left the bow, in case the arrow is wrong it causes damage to the people, some
time to takes the life of people then by correcting and stating at a later date
that the information presented in the previous/earlier was wrongly made and
media expresses it regrets has no meaning as once the life is lost media cannot
bring back, like that once reputation is damaged, media cannot revert it in the
original place as reputation etc are
like the mud pots, once dented/ broken then it is difficult to bring back to
the original shape ?????????????) also for any media meeting/ press briefings
whether government or called by any individual either private or elected
representative or any institution or any
GOFPI’s then BEA/PMEA should decide the need for going to a particular place
and also will determine which media organisations should visit for that press
briefing. This make the system in place and energies of total media
organisations can be better utilised by channelizing/ streamlining the media to
concentrate on different issues to be look after and take the common feed on
various issues; this also enables that more news will come from various media
organisations with the existing strength, also there will be scope for more
issues pertaining to the public can be resolved for the betterment of the
society.
74) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF SHOWING THE FEMALES IN VULGAR POSITIONS OR SEMI NAKED, OR LITTLE
BLURRING OF THE NUDE PICTURES; ALSO CHASING THE FEMALES IN CASE OF CAUGHT IN
ANY CRIME, ESPECIALLY THE PROSTITUTION, NEED FOR COMPLETE EXPOSURE OF THE MALE
& PIMIS IN THE CASES OF PROSTITUTION/ FLUSH TRADE
Also it is very un
fortunate, very sad that some of the media organisations especially the print
media, that too mostly the local tablet news papers are mostly doing the cut
and paste job of the news presented in some other media organisation with very
rarely has their own news and most of the time most of the pages are just
filled with gossips mostly sex related and also with semi naked females or
females in very exposing vulgar positions with almost nil clothes or nude photos
just blurred a little on the private parts just to attract readers and
viewership and also mostly write about the extra matrimonial affairs or any sex
related topics or actress and actors linkups and break ups; also in most of the
electronic media the channels are showing the family members or their
interviews or the girls who are victims of the sex crimes may be their faces
blurred, but instead the media should do it on the accused persons after the
case is registered and the court is convicted, till the case is disposed even
any criminal accused or their family members fotos should not be directly shown
in the media as till the court is convicted the accused is only accused and the
charges are not framed, in case the courts acquit the accused then the whole
media can give back the mental agony and trauma faced by the individual accused
and their family ???????????, Also most
of the media journalists are very enthusiastic in exposing the female victims
of the prostitution and flush trade; instead of showing the pimps and the
visitors the journalists most of the times chase the already half dead females
to show their face and expose them to the public??????????? Very sad media
should be barred to do expose the female victims as media organisations are
constantly fighting for the safety and security and dignity of women in the
society?????????? and in case of any prostitution rackets found should be
exposed but the media should not be after the females victims but expose only
the pimps even though the pimps is a female and also the male visitors along
with their full details, this measure will make the pimps not to be in the
business or flush trade and prostitution and also the visitors are scarred to
visit the brothels and involve in the prostitution, as a result the crimes
against women on the economically backward and weaker section women in to the
flush trade and also this makes a better family atmosphere and reduction in
domestic violence over a period of time as men are naturally sex sick and certainly
make better atmosphere at home; this measure will certainly bring the desired
change in getting the respect and dignity of women in the country.
75) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF SHOWING THE ACCIDENT CASES AND OTHER DEATH CASES IN THE VIDEO OR PHOTO
FROM IN ANY ELECTRONIC OR PRINT MEDIA; COMPLETE BAN OF AIRING AS BREAKING NEWS
SOME ACCIDENT/CRIME IN SOME REMOTE PLACE IN THE GLOBE AS NATIONAL NEWS EVEN
THOUGH THERE OF NO RELEVANCE TO THE ACCIDENT TO OUR COUNTRY- THEY MAY PRESENT
IN THE INTERNATIONAL NEWS THAT SO AND SO HAPPENED IN SO AND SO COUNTRY
Also very
unfortunately if any accident occurs on the road / rail or any murder case by
be-hating or mutilated body or any brutality of crime like acid attack etc it
should be ideal to ban the media showing the picture of the incidence or the
video of the incidence as repeated viewing of such disturbing pictures it will
have a long term psychological impact on the millions of viewers and readers in
due course of time; as such it should be made complete ban of showing the video
or picture of such news, only the voice of the news presenter or the writing of
the news is sufficient to inform to the people, which otherwise has no purpose
except to mentally disturb millions of viewers???????????? ; Also there should
be complete ban on airing the breaking news from some of the accidents/ death/
murder occurred in some remote corner of the globe even when there is no Indian
connection exists to that accident/crime, but
the same can be present as a news if the media wishes to do so in the
international news items/bulletin, else it will create panicky in the elderly
parents as most of their children might be working abroad in that country and
the elderly parents may not aware of the geography of the places of the country
where their children are working in abroad, it is something like that if the
accident or any incidence occurred in Punjab, even if their children might be
studying or working in Kerala then also their parents are worried because of
the name of the country ???????????; in such cases it should be ideal to
present as general news in case media wishes to do so when airing the
international news, but it appears it is un necessary for presenting such news
without any Indian connection just for the sake of news????????, only when an
Indian involved then they can be present as priority news in the national
channel, and in the regional channels where the individuals persons belong to
?????????; or any major law and order breaks down in any city in abroad where
Indians are living then it may be present in the priority news in all channels
as people from different parts of India may be living in those countries.
76) ALSO COMPLETE BAN
ON EXCLUSIVE CRIME RELATED NEWS AS IT ONLY SPOILING THE YOUTH WITH GIVING
DIRECTIONS HOW TO PERFORM CRIME RATHER THAN EDUCATING THEM TO BE CAUTIOUS.
Also only special
news bulletins on exclusively the crime and accidents can be made and the
choice should be left to the discretion of viewers whether to watch or not and
such exclusive crime news should be at different timings on different channels
with the pictures completely blurred and can tell elaborately about the
incidence????????, so that in case the viewers of a particular channel wishes
to skip the crime news then he should watch other cannel programmes of news
etc; also in this exclusive crime news also all the video/ photos should be
completely blurred pictures in black & white and videos in black &
white and no blood/ deceased/ accident destroyed vehicles should be shown in
direct un-blurred form, which should be completely banned; also the crime news
should present the news only and should not present the sequence of the crime
or who the culprits planned to do the crime, such detailed presentation has no
use except to make some other people to think in those lines to do the crime
ignoring the fact that they will be caught they will proceed the same way to
fulfil their grudge/anger/venomous plots nature to punish their
enemies/rivals????????????; as such there should be complete ban on the showing
the direct pictures and also complete ban on detailed presentation of exclusive
crime news; the so called exclusive crime news describing minutely how the
criminals planned the crime will not be any positive use, in fact it is mis
leading many other people especially the youth to better grasp the methods how
to do a crime and in addition they apply their own mind to get get scot free
ignoring the fact that crime is a crime as was not intended by god and will be
caught one day or the other face the punishment legally????????; as such there
should be complete ban on exclusive crime news which was watched by most youth;
all the above methods will certainly make the psychological disturbance of the
viewers/ readers.
77) NEED FOR CHANGING
THE TERM OF “BREAKING NEWS” AS “LATEST NEWS UP DATES” AS IT LATERALLY CREATING
PANIC AMONG THE PEOPLE WHO ARE WATCHING THE NEWS CHANNELS FOR NOTHING BIG NEWS????????
Also it is very
disturbing and creates panic among many people especially the elderly retired
people and the patents who are the continues watchers of the news programmes;
also some of the people are addicted to the so called “breaking news” every
time with most of the channels with back ground music and are becoming
psychologically disturbed; it is literally spoiling the mental peace of
millions of viewers, it is more dangerous addiction than the drugs or alcohol
or smoking or internet for many people, expecting minute by minute breaking
news with anxiety what will come next??????????, such terminology of “breaking
news” and the background music should be completely banned (only mentally sick
& perverted people only will advocate??????????); instead if the media
wishes they can term it as “latest news up date” without any back ground music, this measure
is very necessary as just watching news channels millions are people getting un
necessary stress in the mind, with anxiety and all leading to various
psychological and heath disorders and with this their personal family life as
well as the work out put in their employment and life has certainly getting
negative impact and mostly have impact on the health of the individuals un
knowingly as it is creating a terrible negative signs in the sub conscious mind
of the viewers; as such the term “breaking news” should be termed as the
“latest news up date” without any background music as the news channels are not
to crate the panic among the people and disturb them psychologically to effect
their performance and health, they are only for providing information and
educate them and also for their common good only??????????; will the people i.e.
the viewers can do anything by simply sitting at home on minute by minute
breaking news on some comments by someone or some accident news etc media need
to change their presentation form???????; only in circumstances where the
latest update is necessary in case of natural calamities like cyclones, earth
quakes, avalanches, tsunami or any fire accidents or any train accidents or
flight accidents or terror threats or cases of terror violence or cases of
communal riots etc or any police & law order information in curtaining the
canards or rumours mongering etc for establishing the peace and harmony in any
territory, preferably limited to that regional news rather than taking it as
national news in cases of communal
violence in that region???????????
78) NEED FOR SPECIAL
GUIDELINES FOR MEDIA FOR REPORTING IN ANY CASES OF TERROR OR NATURAL CALAMITY
Also there should
be special guidelines for all media while reporting the natural calamities such
as cyclones, tsunami, earth quakes, avalanches wildfire etc and also in situations of terror attacks on
any city or any place ?????????; the reporting should not create panic among
the people in any manner, the reporting should not be providing the the
strategies of the government for helping the people and security forces to the
terrorists or the culprits in case of terror attacks; the information in the
natural calamities should be in such a manner that it will be useful in
overcoming the dangers of the natural calamities first the life saving and then
the material or their belongs savings, also should more focus on the the
efforts of the authorities and ways and means of saving the life, rather than
just telling that so many died in that area, in this area, so meant people are
injured seriously and many more are going to die etc etc ?????????????? and
create un necessary stress in already stressed minds of the effected people and
the common people who are watching the news bothering about their kin and kith
or their relatives and friends??????, after the immediate recovery and rescue
operations are reached the peak level and the effect of natural calamity or the
terror attack panic and impact once got slowed down then the media can reveal
the damage occurred and the death toll if any etc. This the healthy way of the
presentation of news in the natural calamities and terror attacks as it has a
tremendous impact on the people????????, just because freedom of press exists
means that should not have the authority to create un necessary panic in the
already affected areas people and other viewers and also to act in a manner to
more damage to the security of the area by providing the strategy and
information of tackling of the terrorists to them to do more damage???????????
79) NEED FOR ONLY
MAKING THE OFFICIAL AUTHORISED REPRESENTATIVES OF ANY POLITICAL PARTY ONLY AS A
PANELLIST ON ANY SHOW AND OTHER PANELLISTS’ FROM THE SOCIAL GROUPS SHOULD BE
THROUGH VOTING BY THE PEOPLE THROUGH THE SMS/ TWEET/ SOCIAL MEDIA IN A
DEMOCRATIC WAY AND SHOULD NOT BE THE PREROGATIVE OF EDITORS/NEWS PRESENTERS TO
CALL XYZ TO THE NEWS DEBATES EXCEPTIONAL IN SPECIALISED NEWS LIKE ARMED FORCES
, ONLY THOSE RETIRED ARMED FORCE PEOPLE ETC
Also media
organisations should interview only authorised persons of the political parties
in the absence of spokes persons of the party for any reason to express any
views / receive any comments etc, the media should be barred from interviewing
on the media shows regarding expressing their views on any issue by any un
authorised political party persons or any elected representatives belonging to
any registered political party other than those in the government
functionaries, as many people are confusing whether the views of the individual
belong to any political party are whether the official stand of the political
party or that individual members view as most of the people presume that it is
the party words if any party member spokes anything in the media; also it
should be made mandatory that all the views expressed by representatives /
spokes persons of any political party should be treated as the stand of the
political party and certainly not the views of the individual- no individual
political party spokes person should be allowed to say the views are my
personal when presenting and authored to speak on behalf of any political
party????????????, this will certainly make the political parties and elected representatives to be cautious all the times. Also it should be
most ideal and necessary that when electronic media channels are airing the
views of the media discussions of some non political panellists on various
issues, the panellists should be selected in a democratic way rather at the
will and wish of the editors and enforce their views (the views of
intellectuals and experts) on any matter as the views of the people of the
country, as it is necessary as most of the people’s views can be represented by
someone whom people trust most as they feel their choice can make better voice
for them as these select few regulars are not the real representatives of the
121 crores people for reason neither they are elected by election nor by any
method they are the only one among many intellectuals/ experts in the country
on the subjects ??????????, these few select faces on the entire national and
regional media some of them lacks rational and also are emotional and are of
the same attitude of the so called editors of some of the media organisations
of the present electronic media with their approach that “my way is highway”
and all others have to to ultimately should come their way even though most of
the times rational is missing due to the ego in them about the self to be on
the upper hand rather than actually focusing on the issue and how to overcome
they are focused on individual criticism and blame games
individually???????????; also many people has the felling that some of the so
called regular panellists are only public relation agents of media/political
parties and also might be using the PR to make deals ?????????????; if at all
the media debates and discussions on the issues then experts on that particular
issue or related field and also mostly retired senior citizens both from the
government, PSU, private as they are mostly frank and fair in their frag-end of
life by default with some exceptions, and also all sections of people and all
age groups in case of generalised discussions should be ideal to be present as
expert opinion; this will really make the meaningful discussions and real
education to the common man of all
sections on the issues and also it reflects the voices of larger section of the
people and it a truly democratic way of doing the journalism.
80) NEED FOR MEDIA TO
ACT LIKE ELECTION MONITORING OBSERVERS DURING ALL ELECTIONS ESPECIALLY
PARLIAMENT AND LOK SABHA BY FORMING TWO/THREE JOURNALISTS AS ONE TRAM AND
FOLLOWING EACH AND EVERY MAJOR POLITICAL PARTY AND FEW INDEPENDENT TEAMS FOR
MONITORING OVER ALL OBSERVERS IN THE CONSTITUENCY TO ENSURE THE CANDIDATES IN
FRAY FOLLOW THE ELECTION CODE STRICTLY TO ENSURE FAIR AND FREE ELECTIONS
HAPPENS , ALSO TO EDUCATE VOTERS TO COME AND VOTE TO CHOOSE THE RIGHT CANDIDATE
;
Also it should
be ideal that media instead of following
few select party star campaigners of major political parties during the
elections by all media, media should be divided into small group of two/three
journalists from different media organisations, the journalists should be from
other places other than regular journalists in that area; also the journalists
should be keep changing the places daily to follow all major political party
candidates in fray and also some teams to monitor over all candidates in the
territory to ensure that all the candidates in fray will adhere to the election
conduct code and not indulge in bribery / wooing the voters and also do any mal
practise to gain in the elections;
81) NED FOR CONDUCT
GROUP DISCUSSIONS/ DEBATES BY CANDIDATES IN FRAY EVERY DAY EVENING IN THE
VILLAGE/WARD AND MANDAL/BLOCK HEAD QUARTERS WITH FIXED TIME FOR EVERY CANDIDATE
TO EXPRESS THEIR VIEWS ABOUT WHAT THEY WISH TO DO FOR THE VILLAGE AND HOW THEY
ARE GOING TO ACHIEVE THEM TO CREATE AWARENESS TO THE LOCAL PUBLIC TO CHOOSE
RIGHT CANDIDATE; ALSO TO AIR MANDATORILY BY ALL ELECTRONIC MEDIA AT THE SAME
TIME IN THE REGIONAL CHANNELS REGARDING THE CONSTITUENCY WISE DISCUSSIONS WITH
ALL MAJOR POLITICAL PARTY CANDIDATES IN FRAY TO BE VIEWED BY AL PEOPLE
in addition that
all media should conduct the debates / discussions of each major party
candidate in far in each village/ mandal headquarters at every day in the
evening to ensure that the candidates in fray will speak that what their
knowledge about the village and what they will do to resolve the issues etc
which will create a better understanding of the each village wise issues to the
candidates in fray and also it will be useful for the local people to
understand the knowledge of the candidates in fray and also the ability of the
candidates in fray to choose the right candidate. This method will certainly
bring a great change in the country as most of the people as candidates in fray are aware of the local
issues and it creates a positive pressure on the elected representative to act
up on the issues to do betterment for the people, also it gives an opportunity
to the lost candidates to put pressure through political party locally to
ensure that the elected representative and the elected governments acts o
resolve the issues; Also it should be made mandatory that all regional channels
should air the overall constituency opinion of each candidate in fray; and also
the group discussion/ debates of all major political party candidates of each
constituency for about an hour or hour and half for each constituency to ensure
that people of the constituency and the people of the region knew about the
candidate in fray and also their ability and their articulation, their
knowledge etc to choose the right candidate.
82) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF MEDIA DISCUSSIONS ONCE THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN ENDS; ALSO COMPLETE BAN OF
PROJECTIONS / ANALYSIS WITH FIGURES OF SUCCESS OF ANY PARTY TILL ALL PHASES OF
POLLS ENDS
Also it should be
made mandatory that media should be completely barred from giving any kind of
projections or opinion polls , even slightest hint till all phases of polls in
the state in case of assembly election or all states in case of parliament
election completes; also it should be made mandatory that media should be
barred from presenting the analysis reports of private individuals or any kind
of discussions regarding the poll once the election campaign is over ;
otherwise some media projecting so and
so party as per the larger opinion of
the people is going to sweep etc will certainly impact the individuals?????????;
as such once the election commission deadline to campaign ends then the entire media should stop discussion
on any election matter except any news related to any complaints, any mal
practices etc. No analysis/ expert panel discussions should happen.
83) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF PAID NEWS AND PROVIDING EXCLUSIVE INTERVIEWS OF SOME CANDIDATES IN FRAY
OR SOME POLITICAL PARTIES MORE TIME SOME POLITICAL PARTIES LESS TIME
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media provide uniform time for all candidates in fray
and also for all major political parties with has secured at least 10 % votes
in the last elections either by the party in that constituency or that region
in over all; it should be made a complete ban on the media organisations
showing bias towards some political parties or some select leaders based on the
proximity with the channel, also there should be complete ban on the paid news;
all these kind of violations should lead
to suspension of licence of the media
organisation; all electronic and print media should provide equal time / space
to all the major political parties. Also in the news bulletins during elections
all media should mandatorily give equal news to all major political parties /
candidates in fray who have secured more than 10 % votes in the previous
elections. Also during the election period the BEA & PMEA should ensure
that all media is united and share the information and present the news to the
people in the larger interest of the people.
84) NEED FOR CREATION
OF MEDIA CENSORSHIP AUTHORITY FOR MONITORING/ CENSORING PRINT & ELECTRONIC
MEDIA BOTH NEWS AND ENTERTAINMENT CHANNELS?????
Also it should be
ideal to create a censor board for media for censoring the programmes that are
supposed to be aired in the media both print and electronic media, the media
sensor board should comprise of some senior working editors from different
media organisations which will also have the private members from the
government and some NGO representatives; their primary duty is to ensure the
quality news is presented and also the news presented will not create any panic
or aggravate the agitations etc; this media sensor board should work in
coordination with BEA & PMEA and also non political interference and no
political party primary member eligible to be the media senior board and only
the pure journalistic fraternity as well as pure NGO’s should be eligible to be
part of media sensor board.
85) NEED FOR MANDATORY
PERFORMANCE AUDIT OF THE GOVERNMENTS AND ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES BY MEDIA ONCE
IN THREE MONTHS AFTER FIRST SIX MONTHS MORATORIUM TO ENSURE THAT ALL ELECTED
REPRESENTATIVES, GOVERNMENTS WILL DO THEIR DUTY
Also it should be
made mandatory that all media should mandatorily conduct the performance audit
of the elected representatives and the governments once in three months after
the first six months to ensure that the elected representatives and the
governments dedicatedly work towards the poll promises and also resolving the
local issues appropriately. and all media should share the responsibility by
forming trams and doing the performance audit and share the audit report and
present the programme at the same time by all the electronic media and also by
the print media on the same day; also it should be made mandatory that there
should be discussions among the elected representatives and the nearest rival
lost in the fray once in three months to ensure that the local issues are
resolved better. This system will certainly make the elected representatives
and the governments to work in the direction of betterment of people of the
territory
86) NEED FOR MEDIA TO
DO ANALYSIS OF WEALTH / INCOME OF EACH AND EVERY ELECTED REPRESENTATIVE FROM
GRAM PANCHAYAT TO THE PARLIAMENT ONCE IN YEAR AND PRESENT IT THE PEOPLE OF THE
TERRITORY; ALSO THE CASE SHOULD BE SAME FOR ALL THE SENIOR BUREAUCRATS IN THE
DISTRICTS, STATE AND CENTRAL GOVERNMENT, PSU’S.; ALSO ALL MAJOR POLITICAL PARTY
OFFICE BEARERS FROM DISTRICT LEVEL ONWARDS; NEED FOR EXPOSING POLITICAL &
ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES LUXURY LIFE.
Also it should be
made mandatory duty of the media to gather the information through the formal
and informal sources to ensure the assets of the elected representatives from
the gram panchayat to the parliament individually, their immediate family
members and their kin and kith are gathered and their growth formula should be made to the public every
year in the month of April; this measure will ensure that all elected
representatives are vigilant in their deals and ensure absolute
transparency in their public life as if
they earn also then cannot keep the earned money converted in the form of
assets of the individual elected representative or their immediate family members or their kin and
kith; also the media should gather the
information of the assets and wealth and their growth every year of all the
senior bureaucrats in the district, state and centre and also the PSU and keep
in the web site of the media/ BEA/PMEA and present in the print media. This
will ensure that not only the elected representatives but the bureaucrats also
the same should for the judiciary officials to ensure responsible person in the
system i.e. the legislative, executive and judiciary is accountable &
answerable to every citizen in the country; Also the media should gather the
information of the income and assets and wealth of office bearers of all major
political parties from district, state and national level and keep on the web
and present in the print media; also it should be very ideal for the media to
keep a regular watch on the elected representatives & political leaders and
their immediate family for their luxury life as most of the elected
representatives are having two different shades of life, one simple life for
the public appearance and other their personal luxury life which is mostly got
through ill gotten money, which are being exhibited in the mass functions as a
status symbol??????, the media should expose all such leaders from their pens
to watches to vehicles etc and also the gold and jewellery of the as most of
them are not declared in their tax returns, in case if they say they got gift,
then also it should be made available in their returns of tax; also it should
be accounted by the gift providers as most of the pens to watches to vehicles
running in lacks and croes of rupees????????? Got weared by the leaders from
mostly public money?????; this measure of exposing luxury will certainly make
them follow the principle of straight
forwardness as most of the leaders can loose anything but not the power as they
feel threat to power by getting exposed
for luxury will ensure they and their immediate family members follow simple
life?????; as most of the leaders are becoming corrupt for luxury of family and
self????????; This measure will bring
only clean people in politics or people maintain straight forwardness in the
politics as an office bearer of any political party especially the ruling
parties mostly by the regional parties; this method will establish confidence
in the public about the political parties.
87) NEED FOR CREATION
OF MEDIA OMBUDSMAN FOR COMPLAINTS ON THE MEDIA FOR EXTORTION/ EXCESSES
Also it should be
ideal to create an ombudsman system in the media comprising of retired senior
journalists and also retired judges, to receive the grievances regarding the
journalists and media organisation in case of any complaints from any quarters
regarding the news aired by the media organisation violating the general
prescribed norms, then the media ombudsman will act and review the complaint,
should have the authority to prosecute the guilty for violation of general
norms for rectifying the general complaints in the media;
88) NEED FOR PROVIDING
THE GPRS ENABLED VEHICLES, GPRS ENABLED MOBILE PHONES FOR ALL THE JOURNALISTS
TO TRACK THEIR MOVEMENTS BY MEDIA HOUSES AND ALSO TO UNIFY THE MEDIA
ORGANISATION JOURNALISTS LIKE 108 EMERGENCY VEHICLE OR RADIO CABS TO BE GUIDED
TO REACH THE SPOT AT THE EARLIEST BY THE NEAREST VEHICLE OF WHICH EVER MEDIA
ORGANISATION VEHICLE
Also it is most
ideal and mandatory that all media organisations should provide the GPRS enable vehicles to the individual
journalists, also the GPRS enabled mobile phones to track & record the
movements of the journalists as per the
directions of the editors or as per the information provided by the
journalist in the investigation matters; also this enables to guide the
journalists to reach the spot of any incidences at the earliest, also it will
be most ideal to create a unified GPRS data to ensure that in case of any
incidence the media journalist who is near to the incidence spot irrespective
of the media organisation can be able to reach the spot for further information
and communication and later on other authorised media representatives can reach
the spot for more information to the regional news etc ; this method will help
to a great extent in most of the emergency matters and also completely
eliminate the completion and using the term first time / exclusive on the
incidences reporting to bring more clarity and healthy practices by the media
organisations to its viewers
89) NEED FOR CREATION
OF TOLL FREE NUMBER FOR MEDIA GRIEVANCES RECORDING; ALSO A TOLL FREE NUMBER TO
CALL THE MEDIA IN DISTRESS SITUATIONS
Also it should be
made mandatory that there should a national toll free number to record the
media grievances and national e-mail to receive the e-mail complaints, the toll
free number is a multi lingual call centre to receive the complaints regarding
the media.; Also it should be ideal to create a multi lingual toll free number
for calling in distress situation anywhere in India so that nearby journalists will attend the
call or also the called will be used to make the responsible government
officials to respond immediately to
rescues them in appropriate manner
90) NEED FOR LIFE BAN
FOR MEDIA PERSONS ENGAGED IN SMOKING, BOOZING IN PUBLIC PLACES AND WHO ARE
INVOLVED IN PROSTITUTION/ BIO-GAMY/ EXTRA MATRIMONIAL AFFAIRS / DOWRY CASES/
SEXUAL ASSAULT/ HARASSMENT CASE OR DOMESTIC VIOLENCE CASES / CHILD LABOUR AT
HOME CASES ETC ?????????
It is a fact that
most of the media journalist are un knowingly the role models for many people,
especially for the youngsters, as such being the people are of the assumption
that most of the media people are well learned and are people with wisdom
personalities in the country as such the onus lies on the media persons to up
hold the respect for media in the common public by exhibiting the same in
reality, as one has the moral authority to preach anything good if they are
clean by themselves and are practiced by them????????; as such it should be
ideal that all journalist should be at least barred from exhibiting their
personal habits in the public places, the personal habits like smoking in
public places, consuming the gutkas and pan in public places and chewing and
spitting in public places and consuming alcohol in public places or moving
vehicles or after consumption attending the duty etc should be completely
banned and in case of violation of this norms they should be life ban on the
journalist to work as a journalist, this will certainly bring the positive
change not only in the individual journalist but also on the society as whole,
it is a bare fact that in a traditional society like India even some of the
female journalists are openly smoking in the publicly thus creating an insult
for the female gender itself and also some journalists are boozing in the mid
of the day in the public restaurants and press club houses bar &
restaurants and are attending the duties ???????????, the media seniors should seriously introspect about this very
low behaviour of some of the journalists and bringing the low of image for
entire journalistic fraternity in the public?????? Also the same is the case
for child labour employment and domestic violence and extra matrimonial affairs
and also involved in adultery or prostitution by any journalist, the journalist
are supposed be the noble profession should be straight forward and clean
habits and command respect through their positive self less and larger interest
acts rather than self centric with wises ?????????????; as such in order to
inculcate the good public and personal behaviour of the the journalists who
violates the public display norms should be given few warnings and case of no
change then they should be banned for
life from the journalism profession
91) NEED FOR MANDATORY
ADDRESSING OF COMMON PEOPLE IN THE WORDS AS BROTHER, SISTER, MOTHER, FATHER,
GRAND PAA / GRAND MOTHER ETC BY THE JOURNALISTS WHILE INTERVIEWING THE COMMON
PUBLIC FOR INCULCATING UNIVERSAL BROTHER HOOD
Also it very ideal
that since the journalists plays as indirect role model for many people
especially the youth, and also by all the viewers, it will be ideal that all
the journalists should mandatorily address the common public as brother,
sister, “amma/maaji” i.e mother, father, grandfather, grandmother ”dada/nani”
etc as these wordings are very touchy to the heart, will certainly create a
tremendous change on the cultural behaviour of the country especially the youth
and inculcate the family values and universal brother hood and also certainly
reduce the violence against women by the known people and also to some extent
by the strangers if they are not under acute alcohol influence and completely
lost their senses. This good manner creates more productive work in the
organisation, better results in exams for the students etc will happen with a
small change by media addressing.
91 A) NEED FOR ENSURING INCULCATION OF POSITIVE THINKING IN
EVERY JOURNALIST BY SUPPLYING THE JOURNALISTS WITH BOOKS / PRESENTATIONS ON
SELF IMPROVEMENT LIKE “THE POWER OF SUB CONSCIOUS MIND”, BODY LANGUAGE DECODING,
AND LEADERSHIP PRINCIPLES.
It is high time
that all media organisations mandatorily provide books to all its journalists
and staff about the ethical behaviour, self improvement. The books like 1) “The
power of your sub conscious mind” by Dr Joseph Murphy for understanding the
power of their own sub conscious and also that how the sub conscious mind act
on every individuals which make them to do responsible rational presentation of
news. 2) “The definitive book of body language” by Allen and Barbara for
understating the body language of human beings, their emotions and behaving
with positive and self confidence and also observing other interviewing person
body language to decode their emotions to interview them to get better answers
from them and also useful in assessing the state of mind of the interviewer
whether in frustration, or anxiety or telling truth etc etc. 3) “Timeless Leadership 18 sutras from
Bhagvad Gita” by Debashis Chatterjee for understating the need for leading
selfless life and the principles of leadership to set examples for others. Also
it is ideal to ensure these three books as syllabus for degree course for all
journalists. These three books are very essential to be read thoroughly and
understand the essence of these books by entire journalistic fraternity (every
journalist); Also need to provide training in yoga and meditation to all
journalists so that they become complete persons with wellbeing and goodness
thus they will induce the same in millions of people which will lead to
formation of a better nation over a period of time.
92) NEED FOR
APPROPRIATE REGULATION OF THE FAST
GROWING SOCIAL MEDIA FOR ENSURING SAFETY AND SECURITY AND SOCIAL AND COMMUNAL
HARMONY PREVAIL BY MAKING IT MANDATORY THAT EVERY INDIVIDUAL USER OF THE
INTERNET EITHER ON THE COMPUTER SYSTEM OF MOBILES HAVING ACCOUNTS / ID ON ANY
OF THE SOCIAL NETWORKING SITES/ E-MAILS SHOULD MANDATORILY SUBMIT THE AFFIDAVIT
OF THEIR DETAILS OF FULL NAME, ADDRESS
AND CONTACT NUMBER/S AND ANY GOVERNMENT ISSUED ID CARD LIKE VOTER ID/ PASSPORT/
RATION CARD TO THE APPROPRIATE AUTHORITY FOR ESTABLISHING ONLY GENUINE USERS
WILL PREVAIL AND ALSO FOR ENSURING EVERY INTERNET SOCIAL MEDIA USER BEHAVES
RESPONSIBLY WITHOUT ANY SCOPE FOR SPREADING CANARDS OR CREATING PANIC AND
CAUSING VIOLENCE IN ANY FORM.
Also it should be
most ideal to make it mandatory to regulate the social media which is increasingly
becoming the fastest mode of communication in the country, the regulation
should be in such a manner that it will not affect the individuals freedom of
expression as long as the individual behaves the decency and within the
permitted limits of the existing laws not posting derogatory comments,
fitly/stang languages and also morphed photographs, private photographs of
third party without their permission etc or any nude photos/videos etc , this
can be made through making it mandatory that all the internet usage should be
monitored through making it mandatory that all the internet users and all the
email and social networking accounts should provide self declaration in a standard
formant along with address and identity proof of the individual for
continuation of the account in a stipulated time, the government has the
authority to do ethical hacking in case of suspicion or if involved in any
crime. Also all the students should be monitored for their usage of sites on
random bases sumotto or on the request of parents to ensure all students use
the internet for education purpose only and certainly not for watching the
pornography; also all the cyber cafes and all the office establishments both
private and government must strictly establish pornography filters and also
issue user id cards for all the users for usage of internet in the cyber cafe
and also in the office, by obtaining the details with photo id and address
proof and employee id in case of office establishments in a standard
format. Strictly only people with the id
cards only should be allowed to use the internet in the cyber cafes and also in
the office establishments.; this will certainly prevent the hate rumour mongering
or creating panic in case of any tragic unfortunate incidences, and also use of
obscene and vulgar comments and acts on female and also certainly prevent the
spread of online prostitution, drug and narcotics peddling etc Also the
pornography filters should be on all the commercial internet broad band
connections for office internet of any private business establishment or any
government office to ensure that the employees are not wasting their productive
offices hours in watching the pornography.
92 A) NEED FOR
BANNING THE MISLEADING ADVERTISEMENTS IN SOCIAL MEDIA FOR ONLINE DATING AND SEX
SITES WITH ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE NAME OF “SINGLE WOMEN” LOOKING FOR PEOPLE LIKE
YOU ETC ETC,
It is very shameful
that government and regular media and also the so called youth and educated
class who are part of every protests in case of any unfortunate incidence on
girl child and women are not bothered to talk about the mis leading
advertisements in the social media about the prostitution/ pornography (Ex:
single hot girls in your area looking for you, showing photographs in semi nude
positions, etc etc) in an indirect manner by advertisements constantly visible
on the social media pages as advertisements which will certainly distract some
youth leading them to end up in becoming a pornographic addict or a online
dating or online prostitution etc. Also some of the social media is providing
options to follow the prone sites???? Very strange???? The government should
immediately ban any kind of misleading advertisements, pornographic suggestive
material from the social media and its networks. Failure to do so stringent
action should be initiated on the social media Indian operations heads. When
the so called social media servers even though located in abroad and operated from
foreign nation soils since the people of India are using, in fact volumes are
large from India they have to follow the law of the land???????????
93) NEED FOR SPREADING
THE AWARENESS FOR INFUSING THE HUMAN VALUES AND SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITIES AND
SOCIAL OBLIGATIONS IN THE COMMON PEOPLE FOR EXTENDING HELP TO OTHER IN NEEDY
TIME; ALSO TO MAKE THE SYSTEM CLEAN.
It should be made
mandatory that the media should regularly air the programmes at same time slot in all media,
both within the news bulletins as well as special programmes every day
regarding the need for adoption of social responsibilities and social
obligation and also creation of more awareness and need for maintaining the
human values and morals and ethics; as this measure is necessary that un less there
is change in the mindset of the people that whatever the law, implementation
process the system cannot be rectified; starting from small things that to keep
the house and colony clean by not spreading the waste and keeping the waste in
the designated place, also to not to
smoke in the public areas, not to chew and spit the tobacco, gutkka etc in the
public areas, not to loo/urinate in the public areas, keep the blood donation
regularly at least yearly once, also keeping the organ donation of their deceased
family members; also need for acquiring the knowledge of first aid in case of
any emergencies in the home or colony or on the journey or on the rod when any
one met with accident to help them; also not just to gather and become mute
spectators in case accidents or anyone seeking help to extend immediate first
aid as well helping the accident victim or anyone who are helplessly lying in
the streets on public places, (by telling them in case the same happens to
their family members in some other place all others seeking just as mute
spectators may really lead to the disaster to the family???????? In case of any
loss of life due to lack of first aid and lack of medial help in time) not to
consume alcohol and drive, not to indulge in position and how it can spoil
their personal health as well their family life, also not to indulge in
domestic valance, also follow the rules stipulated by government, not to give
in a slightest bribe in form, immediate information to the government, also
follow the traffic laws strictly, not to cross the traffic signals, not to move
in wrong root, keep the driving licence
and vehicle registration document always with them when they take the vehicle
out, always keep the vehicle pollution checked periodically, also, not to bribe
the police when caught etc etc All these
on regularly daily airing will certainly bring the some change in the behaviour
attitude of many people; also the media should as a single origination or by
clubbing with other media organisation should take the districts wise and going
to rural areas and keeping the awareness programmes; this is possible as most
of the media when visiting the rural areas as per my suggestion to keep the 70
% of the journalists in rural areas, since they are travelling to the interiors
then in the spare time during their visit the journalist should create an audio
visual awareness programme road shows enroot, also special programmes should be
conducted in the mandal head quarters or village head quarters with large
populated villages; also there should be more programmes in addition to the
above programmes to the rural areas to suit their daily needs, like the need
and care for using the pesticides, fertilizers,, need for organic forming, need
for better agriculture practices, need for better use of the agriculture
instruments, need for better animal husbandry care, need for education, need
for adult education, need for right age marriage, need for care for girl child
women and their heath care etc; this will certainly bring the desired change in
the society;
94) NEED FOR CREATION
OF POSITIVE CONSTRUCTIVE ROLE BY THE ENTIRE MEDIA ORGANISATION FOR BRINGING THE
POSITIVE CHANGE IN THE PEOPLE OF ALL SECTIONS IN THE COUNTRY; AS OF NOW MOSTLY
MEDIA IS USING ITS ENERGY TO FAULT FINDING AND ALSO ONLY TO PROMOTE THE
BUSINESS ESTABLISHMENTS AND THE SO CALLED CELEBRITIES AND TARGETING MOSTLY THE URBAN VIEWERS ONLY
TO SPEND THEIR MONIES BY SHOWING/PROMOTING THE LUXURY WHEN OVER 75 % OF THE
POPULATION I.E OVER 100 MILLION POPULATIONS ARE STRUGGLING TO SURVIVE (BPL. LOW
INCOME GROUP AND LOW MIDDLE INCOME GROUP) RATHER THAN SOWING WAYS AND MEANS TO
ACHIEVE BETTER LIVING AND EDUCATING ALL SECTIONS ESPECIALLY THE YOUTH AND THE
RURAL POPULATION ON THEIR RIGHTS, BETTER MEANS TO EARN LIVELY HOOD, AND THE YOUTH
IN THE URBAN POPULATION HOW THE FOOD IS COMING TO THEIR PLATE, THE HARDSHIPS OF
THE FRAMERS, THE INFRASTRUCTURE, MANUFACTURING ETC
Also it an open
fact majority of the educated people has the impression that majority of the
media in the country are only for fault finding and really not
intended/interested in the betterment of the society; as most of the media
organisation heads believe that by punishing someone and set that as example
for others will correct the system and lacunas???????; they believe in if the
negative is projected it makes more negative and two negatives will bring the
positive ?????????; if only fear for punishment will stop the issues/ crimes/
corruption then everyone knows that murder crime will attract the capital
punishment; still the murders are happen; like that dowry is a punishable act
but still dowry is being happing; smoking in public is punishable but majority of the people are smoking, child
labour is a punishable act but still millions of child labour are in
existence?????????; similarly giving bribe is a crime but many people including
the so called youth will not keep the licence and vehicle papers when driving
or going in wrong side or no parking when the police do their duty by writing the “challan” as a penalty instead
of paying it they themselves offer bribe to get away????????? Like this if go
on numerous example; media should ensure better & stricter implementation
of law by the law enforcement agencies through creating positive pressure, but
at the same time law one cannot change the society, there should be a clear
change in the mindset and attitude of the people of the country, then only
things will improve?????? but in fact
the most of the educated people who are sincere in social service believe most
media organisations are not pro people the best example media is not pro
majority of the people is the promotion of luxury in the media?????????; every
media airs about the latest mobile phones (do any one done research on the
existence of the total number of high end mobile phones and their purchasers
and also expecting the users to change the mobile almost every year and new so
called latest mobile phones, most of them are middle class people, salaried
employees who are buying majority of the phones for themselves or their
children by the parents by saving the money or cutting the family expenditure
on food and other necessaries as they wish their children’s wish need to be
fulfilled, but do the media organisations ever thought that do the students till degree need any mobile
phone other than basic phone, if the phone with internet is provided to the
students in young age do they can prevent from watching the pornography on
mobile internet or mms or and other things and also they are regularly taking
for hours on the phone and also only gossiping on the social network sites
through the mobile become a new designs; it may be silly to hear but it is fact
that some of the employees are becoming corrupt to get latest mobile phones i.e
if someone offering the latest mobile phones they will do anything they can in
the organisation, also taking petty bribes for buying mobile phones
?????????also some of the employees are becoming corrupt for the children, youngsters especially the youth???????????),
latest bikes, latest cars, (the case of bikes and cars most of the business
people and most of the senior level employees are becoming corrupt to upgrade
their car and also bring their luxury car, even the big industrialists and some
of the so called big celebrities are buying these luxury cars in the gray
market to avoid the tax- thus indirectly encouraging the gray market and
corrupt in the country ???????????) also
promoting latest designer clothes and latest saris (expecting that every weaver
make new designs every day, only machines can do and only power looms can
survive through computer designed and the traditional weavers are struggling to
lead the life for no major work at hand as majority of the people are
patronizing the so called latest designs by the power looms ?????????????) and
dress material (in regional channels); latest foods (all channels, all modern
foods every day new foods?????-completely forgetting the much needed creation
of awareness of healthy foods that provide the nutrient values providing the
good health for the children, the females from anaemia and other diseases etc
??????) etc etc; but did how many channels in the country ever made as a
regular programme of airing the latest technologies in the field of
agriculture, the best agriculture practices, the best ways of producing the
food without pesticides, the organic farming, community farming without
pesticides, the best methods of preserving the food from wastage, the best ways
of having the nutritious food within the available food (rather than regional
channels airing the food preparation programmes with everyday one latest verity
in the women’s programmes??????); first of all how many channels the regional
(except one or two) did bother to bring to the youth of the country the how the
food is produced, the life style of the the agriculture farmers, the
agriculture workers, how the animal husbandry is made; how the milk is produced
and reached to their table; how the poultry is raising, how the egg/ chicken
meat is reaching their table; how vegetables are grown; how vegetables are
marketed and reaching their table; how the readymade food like bread, biscuits,
chocolates etc etc are made, how other foods are made, packaging, preserving,
etc; how the bricks are made; what are
the difficulties in making the brick; how stone quarrying is done, what are the
difficulties in it; how the weavers are making the cloth from the cotton, how
the dresses are made (handloom, power-loom, readymade garments, etc etc) the
life of the weavers and their issues; how the shows are chapel are made, the
life of caballero; even how the paper is made, what are the ingredients of
making paper, how to conserve the paper in order to conserve the forests and
wood; how the furniture is made, the life of carpenters; how the salt is made;
how the electricity is produced, how cola is mined to produce the thermal
energy etc; how the steel is produced; how the cement is produced; how to make
a house; how the trains are running, how busses are running, how autos and
riksawas are running and the life style, hardships of the drivers, the bus
conductors, mechanics etc, also the mechanics, the repair shops; how to
conserve the water and how to conserve the electricity why need to conserve;
how to get clean air and need for clean air, how to reduce the pollution etc
etc; all the media should make a daily programme in every news programme a few
minutes at a nut shell on these and many more like these subjects should be
aired repeatedly on every news bulletin for few minutes and a detailed programme
on every day for not less than half an hour during the news bulletins
preferably at 6-8 pm and repeat the same between 10-12 or 2-3 pm daily to
ensure all the students returned from the schools and collages should view this
and also the repletion of the programme in the next day may enable other
females in the family to view; also these programmes should be kept in the
websites of all the media organisations; this will certainly know the value of
the products the value of the food the value of the hard ship of others and
also it makes them to get a thought process very human in nature towards
behaving rightly and extend the possible way to do help by promoting the rural
population.
The same way they
should make the rural cultures i.e the traditional arts like painting, the singing, the dancing etc
every day for few minutes in every news bulletin and also a detailed programme
on in between the news bulletins; this will certainly help in preserving our
traditional arts and culture and customs, also develop interest in the youth
about the traditions and customs, also makes them more towards better behaviour
rather than getting fixing in their mind that music and dance means the so
called western music, songs means “yo yo
yo ... I do this to you, do that, touch me here, press me there and there etc
etc all rubbish nonsense vulgarity????????????; also the dances means only item
numbers, the movie dances and making the vulgar moves mostly moving regourasly the up and down,
front and back the private parts coved in the little dress by all genders,
especially the female is this the entertainment means ????? (very sadly and
very unfortunately most of the children and youth, especially the school kids
are singing, humming and dancing even in the school functions and in the
opening ceremonies of all major events in almost in all functions in the public
places and even the so called police are enjoying the same so called item
numbers in their annul functions performed by the so called movie artists and
actresses????????????) and the disco-thecks are not the only music and
entertainment ?????????; they should be thought about traditional dances which
are very artistic and traditional music
(for most of the youngsters traditional music music means the “karnatic”
or Hindustani as was projected by some movies that the traditional music means
the “sad music being played when any “state honoured” given national leaders
dies” on state holidays and mornings and spoiling their mindset, lot of
melodious music and songs are there in every part of the country which can be
enjoyable and every heart touchy)
also need to air
every day in every news bulletin about the self employment opportunities,
the innovation of the thing, the self
help groups (SHG) and other collective small business etc to make large
population the productive side with small investment; not only the interviewing
the corporate giants or the corporate giants business and personal interests ad
only golfing or taking to them on the roads will not make the common youth to
derive their attention towards the business as over 99.99% of the youth
presumes that even if they make 23 hours of hard work in their life time they
may not become another top business tycoons in the country as most of them used
the lacunas in the system which was prevailed and managed to reach certain
level; there after they raise like anything; it is like the rocket needs fuel
to go up to certain height, after that it will move on self propulsion;
similarly most of the business tycoons raised in their carrier only through
their other management techniques, managing the bureaucrats, the elected
representatives and the governments to reach that level especially using the
lacunas in the liberalisation of economy in early 90’s??????????; in the RTI and transparent era it is hardly any room for
existence of lacunas in the system in future ?????? so what all needed is to
promote regularly on daily bases in almost in every news bulletin the success
stories of the tiny, micro, small and medium business people’ and a detailed
programme in between the news bulletins;
Also similarly the
latest technological developments and innovations to make the youth, especially
the educated youth to drive towards the innovation in their interested field
Also the media should
make every day in every news bulletin regarding the financial management, how
to save the money, how to control the expenditure, how to prevent wasteful
expenditure, what are the areas need to give priority for expenditure for all
income groups, what are the best remedies in solving the financial crises preventing them to look for shortcuts and
wrong earnings, corruption and crime; also nor to depend on the so called
swamis, babas, the mullas etc etc in the name of religion to solve the problem
by performing this ritual that ritual;
Also need to
inculcate the power of meditation every day in every news bulletin and repeat
the same in detail in between the news bulletin, the connecting to the
universal forces and also get their mind and body in the control to have better
thought process irrespective of religion, caste and age group
The news does not
means and necessarily to provide only the information related to the lacunas in
the government; but also need to really bring the social change; they need not
require to repeat the same news for
twenty times a day but need to provide the news at a nut shell the repeated
news and only fresh news can be given little explanation, also repetition of
the news is making the people more non productive and of not use for any people
as most of the people are vexed with this kind of presentation of the news by
most of the news channels as the news of some politician made this comment,
some religious leader made this comment, that comment etc which is news and the minister inaugurated
this, this person inaugurated that etc etc
and making this negative/ un important news are resulting the street
protests and violence and do media is not responsible indirectly for wasting of
several millions of man hours of the people in making the street protests, the
bandas and how much trade and business the country lost, how much production
the country lost, how much electricity is lost in watching this repeated news
about the what that politician sad and commented, the reaction of to the
politicians; which is certainly most of the time unproductive; yes if any
important matter regarding the governance or betterment of society that can be
aired; also who much human energy and sub conscious mind is wasted in watching
this stereo type non productive issues / news in media ????? need serious
introspection by all media?????????; media should analysis their news how much
time they are airing what type of news, and is there any use for the society/
common man with this news. are we i.e the, media is responsibly behaving and
doing justice to the people as we are considered as fourth estate of the
system; is it appropriate for us to behave life this; cannot we bring the
change in a positive direction; since most of the people are addicted to the
breaking news in search of new things as news; then for all those people this
new programmes every day on different subjects will certainly make them more
aware; and during their chit chat tea times and gossips the youth and other
people will daily discuses and chat regarding the news technologies by India, how food is produced, how that art
is beautiful, how that traditional music
is the best and how the traditional dress is beautiful and how the tradition
dance is more encouraging etc and how that person got success and how that
innovation made by that youngster etc etc; will certainly bring a new talk and
new thought and in search of the best and existing un known things and value
for the efforts of millions of people etc.
All the above
issues, information on airing daily by every media in every news bulletin at a
nut shell and detailed programme in between the news bulletins on different
fields of subjects will certainly make the country the self sufficient, and
most human values country, less atrocities, less crimes, less corruption, more
intelligent, more hard working, more people with wisdom and humanity;
95) NEED FOR COMPLETE
BAN OF SCROLLING OF THE MESSAGES, NEWS, ADVERTISEMENTS DURING THE READING OF
THE NEWS REGARDING SOCIAL AWARENESS AND OTHER SOCIAL OBLIGATION ADVERTISEMENTS
AND AIRING OF DETAILED PROGRAMMES AFTER THE NEWS BULLETIN FOR ALL DAILY SPECIAL
PROGRAMMES ON DIFFERENT SECTORS OF SOCIAL AWARENESS LIKE AGRICULTURE, HEALTH
CARE, INNOVATION, SELF EMPLOYMENT, MANUFACTURING, CULTURE & TRADITION ETC;
ALSO THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY ADVERTISEMENT COMMERCIAL BREAKS DURING THE AIRING
OF SOCIAL AWARENESS PROGRAMMES.
Also it should be
made mandatory when the social awareness and other social related news like
agriculture methods, food production, manufacturing process description,
education, self employment success, latest simple technologies, etc etc within
the news bulletin and also after the news bulletin when the separate special
detailed programmes regarding the topic which was said in the news bulletin
should be full screen i.e without any scrolling on the television screen; the
scrolling of news and the advertisements will certainly distract the
concentration of the individual viewers (it is something like during a serious
prayers keeping the cabaret dances, then concentration will go to the momentary
dance rather the prayers); only during the airing of general news the scrolling
should be permitted; this will certainly make the viewers to view with more
concentration; also during the airing of the social awareness and other special
programmes there should not be any commercial breakers, if any advertisements
should be aired they should be aired only at the end of the programme and
before the start of the next news bulletin only; as the commercial breaks in
the social awareness programmes will certainly distract the attention of the
viewers. As proposed in this document on reducing the taxes on the profit
earned and also uniform pricing for the advertisements in all channels and also
providing the better amenities and concessions to the journalists, the media
organisations need not required to bother about the revenue losses due to the
cut short of the advertisement period; the reduced taxes will cover more than
the loss and also still the media organisations earn respectable profits. The
above method will certainly bring a sea change as the viewers are able to watch
with put distraction of mind and the concentration will open up their sub
conscious mind and will give lot of positive thought to them in due course for
the best utilisation of the ideals and thoughts and the on the bases of the
viewed material information, this leads to the better behaviour, betterment of
all sections of the society at all times.
96) CONCLUSION
It is an open truth
and fact that media plays a vital and crucial role in the society either
shaping the society for the betterment or the worst; as media has the invisible
power that can penetrate into humans brain, more specifically the sub conscious
brain and can make anything constructive or anything destructive and media can
make zero to hero and hero to zero based on like/ dislike to media??????? in
spite of having this kind of tremendous power to influence the human brains, to
lead them in the positive constructive direction for the betterment of the
society, as per the general opinion of most of the people the most of the present
day media organisations are indirectly the root cause for the existence of
corruption, the lacunas in the system, as media was not pro active when the
things are happing when the country’s economy is liberalised, some of the business organisations used the
loopholes and flaws in the system to rise themselves and they become so big
they are almost indirectly dictating some matters of governance keeping the
major sectors in their hand ???????????; also the failure of the media in un-earthening the
flaws/lacunas in the system and the nexus between the business organisations as
well as the elected representatives and the representatives in the government
??????????; also some of the media organisations are run by the so called big
business houses as well as the corrupt individuals after the media is
liberalised and as a result the corruption become more using the cover of media
by the political elected representatives;
as a result the some of the journalists and media ownerships are also
becoming misled and are using the media to take advantage position by spreading
the venoms regarding the opponents and also acting biased and lacking rational
in the presentation; also most of the media are a victim of the TRP rating for
gaining revenues through the advertisements to run their business organisation
profitably, in order to attract the people i.e mostly male the media is taking the positions creating the panic
situations in the country by igniting un necessary controversies by rising
the comments of some xyz and making the
street protests and violence to happen?????????; also some of the media thinks
that only negative can attract the mass and the negative only can driveway the
negative; also most of the media in order to attract the people viewer ship
only projecting the “so called masala news” about the gossips of the movie
actors and actress divorce, or nth marriage or this person is flirt with that
person, this person is roaming with that person, these persons are
broken????????? Without any thought that how come such news help anyone in the
country, do media is in the indirect promotion of pleasure business to the
people?????, also most of the media wontedly encouraging the so called fashion
shows and the movie trails and the interviews with the so called celebrities
and the so called item number songs and also some of the print media completely
depend their circulation only on printing the half naked photographs and
writing about the sex scandals etc etc?????????? the most of the media
completely lost its touch with the real ground realities / issues and the
constructive way of making the things in the society only bothered about their
organisation revenues and some of the journalists are bothered to increase
their personal wealth by using the proximity with the bureaucrats as well as
elected representatives by concealing the facts about them?????????? also media
completely spoiling the the lively hood of the rural people like the weavers
etc as they are daily on the job of promotion of the “so called designer wear
and latest “ which are mostly made of power loom as a result people are patronizing the so called
latest designs and the handloom weavers not able to produce that designs that
fast as was designed in the computer and made in the power looms ??????????; as
a result they are living in a miserable and pathetic conditions????????????;
also media promoting the so called latest electronic gadgets, the latest cars
and latest luxury goods, for whom???????? Making the middle class to get such
things some of them are indulging in corruption, also some of the upper class
highly elite also doing the same crimes to acquire those by the way of avoiding
tax of customs duty by importing luxury cars in gray market etc ??????????? as
a result of the behaviour of media more crimes are happing and as a result
there is lot of luxury is flown to the country and some of the the institutions
are control less like the internet, the cinemas etc and are become the
originators of crime against women in the country??????????; also the so called
media the fourth estate instead of controlling the excess of the movies, mostly
showing the vulgarity that was being fixed in the sub conscious mind of the
people especially the male which is leading to the crimes in the
country????????; all the above indicates it is high time that media regulations
are a must in order to utilize the power of the media towards betterment of all
sections of the people in the country at all times as the existence self
regulations are not producing the desired results, but still the media should
be out of political& government control in order to protect the
individuality.
The first and
foremost thing is to train the journalists to behave properly in the public by
curtailing them not to some , not to chew the pan etc in public places, on
duty, also not to violate traffic rules etc etc, also to provide training to

areas especially in rural areas by carrying a small projector and screen in
every OB van and when enroot after covering the issue or programme will air the
social awareness programmes in every village / hamlet to ensure more public
awareness is created as media reaches only to few sections of the society and
even still over 50 % of the population lacks the basic television programmes;
also media organisations either individually or as a unit divide the districts
& mandals and conduct the awareness programmes discussions and debates in
every university, collage and school depending up on the strength of the
students either individual unit wise or a group of units to ensure better reach
of the welfare schemes and government policies and also the rights of citizens

the people; also making it mandatory to form a small teams of two or three

the first six months to settle them to ensure all elected representatives,
governments will serve the people, also making it mandatory media will gather
information of annual income &
assets and growth of assets of the all elected representatives, all top bureaucrats
from district level onwards and all the judiciary from district level onwards
and present the information to the people of the territory and the region and
the country to ensure all are answerable to the citizens, also media should
expose the other side luxury life of the political leaders and senior
bureaucrats and their immediate family members etc etc; all these measures on
stricter implementation will certainly make the country free from corruption,
less crimes and more productivity and more equality can be established and this
making better living of all sections of the people in the country at all times.
I have prepared
this document only in the larger interest of the people of the country and the
best utilisation of energies of the highly influential agent of change i.e
media for the betterment of all sections of the society in a positive
constructive, progressive manner for uniform inclusive growth of all sections
of people by bringing the lacunas in the system of governance and putting
positive pressure on the elected representatives, governments to rectify the
issues / lacunas and also make policies and programmes which are acceptable to
larger sections of the people of the country, and create social awareness and
infuse social responsibilities in the citizens for common good; the content in this documents are personal
views after thorough analysis of prevailing situations and also after talking
to many people in different walks of life and lot of study of the prevailing
systems; the content is not intended to hurt any individual journalist or media
organisation but only to uphold the respect, trust on media in the general
public as only some channels/ news papers are really doing some good social
service programmes but at the same time some media are only for the sake of
revenue earning as they were belong to some influential persons with political
touch, as it a known fact that unless some intrusion for service, to do
something to the society individuals cannot take the profession of journalism
may be some of them might be changed as per the changes in the society and only
to make them get rectified by media elders to make them take right path to uphold
the spirit of journalism to build better society. Also people should keep the
respect for the noble profession of media journalism as they are the agents of
change in the society and because of them all other systems alert at all times
to be in service of the people of the nation. Hope all media elders/ brothers/
sisters receive this bold selfless document; if any media
elders/brother/sisters or any section of the people mentioned in the document
got hurt by my views/suggestions in this document, I express my sincere regrets
to them and request them to view it in larger perspective and larger interest
of media, journalism and people of the country as everyone should be answerable
to their inner conscious for being born as human being, as the role of media is
very significant in shaping the society. I pray the almighty and cosmic energy
which is supreme universal force to provide good soul, wisdom and equanimity of
mind to every human being in the Country & entire World which can be
achieved by adopting the ultimate principles of life “love all hate none” &
“do your duty sincerely”, which I do as per my inner conscious. “GOD BLESS ALL”
