Misuse Of Power By Media

Who owns the media in India ?There are several major publishing groups in India , the most prominentamong them being the Times of India Group, the Indian Express Group, theHindustan Times Group, The Hindu group, the Anandabazar Patrika Group,the Eenadu Group, the Malayalam Manorama Group, the Mathrubhumi group,the Sahara group, the Bhaskar group,and the Dainik Jagran group.

Let us see the ownership of different media agencies.
NDTV: A very popular TV news media is funded by Gospels of Charity inSpain Supports Communism. Recently it has developed a soft corner towardsPakistan because Pakistan President has allowed only thischannel to beaired in Pakistan . Indian CEO Prannoy Roy is co-brother of PrakashKarat, General Secretary of the Communist party of India.His wife andBrinda Karat are sisters.India Today which used to be the only national weekly who supported BJPis now bought by NDTV!! Since then the tone has changed drastically andturned into Hindu bashing.

CNN-IBN: This is 100 percent funded by Southern Baptist Church with itsbranches in all over the world with HQ in US. The Church annuallyallocates $800 million for promotion of its channel. Its Indian headis Rajdeep Sardesai and his wife Sagarika Ghosh.

Times group list:Times Of India, Mid-Day, Nav-Bharth Times,Stardust , Femina, VijayaTimes,Vijaya Karnataka, Times now (24- hour news channel) and many more.. TimesGroup is owned by Bennet & Coleman. 'World ChristianCouncil' does 80 percent of the Funding, and an Englishman and an Italianequally share balance 20 percent. The Italian Robertio Mindo is a closerelative of Sonia Gandhi.

Star TV: It is run by an Australian, who is supported by St. PetersPontificial Church Melbourne .
Hindustan Times: Owned by Birla Group, but hands have changed sinceShobana Bhartiya took over. Presently it is working in Collobration withTimes Group.

The Hindu:English daily, started over 125 years has been recently taken over byJoshua Society, Berne , Switzerland . N.Ram's wife is a Swiss national.

Indian Express: Divided into two groups.The Indian Express and new Indian Express (southern edition) ACTSChristian Ministries have major stake in the Indian Express and latter isstill with the Indian counterpart.

Eeenadu: Still to date controlled by an Indian named Ramoji Rao.Ramoji Rao is connected with film industry and owns a huge studio inAndhra Pradesh .

Andhra Jyothi: The Muslim party of Hyderabad known as MIM along with aCongress Minister has purchased this Telugu daily very recently.

The Statesman: It is controlled by Communist Party of India.Kairali TV: It is controlled by Communist party of India (Marxist)

Mathrubhoomi: Leaders of Muslim League and Communist leaders have majorinvestment.

Asian Age and Deccan Chronicle: Is owned by a Saudi Arabian Company withits chief Editor M.J. Akbar.

Gujrat riots which took place in 2002 where Hindus were burnt alive,Rajdeep Sardesai and Bharkha Dutt working for Star TV at that time gotaround 5 Million Dollars from Saudi Arabia to cover only Muslim victimswhich they did very faithfully. Not a single Hindu family was interviewedor shown on TV whose near and dear oneshad been burnt alive, it is reported

Tarun Tejpal of Tehelka.com regularly gets flat check from Arabcountries to target BJP and Hindus only, it is said.

The ownership explains the control of media in India by foreigners. Theresult is obvious.Is this what our country forefathers envisioned in the consitution ? Itis one thing the media says they are mouthpiece of such and suchorganization, and talk about it. But another when they misuse thefreedom given and pose as National Media when they are simply paidagents, propagandists. It is time all Indians take notice. In the endeveryone suffers

Me And My Friend Earth

About a century ago
Me and my friend Earth
Both were happy and prosperous
Her beauty was known by all
Even in the universe
She had all charms and
Always remained happy.


But unfortunately I met her yesterday
And was not able to identify her
As she was in a bad state
She had lost all her charms and beauty
She could not remain the same as
She was a century ago


But I was more developed than ever before
I was very happy for my achievement
But it changed into sadness
When I saw my friend earth in a bad state

I asked her the reason of her ruin and
In response she blamed me
Because I was the only reason for her lost
Beauty & Health

I could not understand and asked her why??
She said your development is the only cause of my decline.

I felt sorry for all that I had done with her
Instead of paying off her debts,
I have made her to cry in moan.


I am very shameful for what I did with her.
Are you??

The Power Of Words

Sow roses and reap smiles and blessings – thus goes the saying. A kind word, a polite gesture, a sweet smile can win many wars, so said Guru Nanak. Words, after all have the power to flatter as well as scorch.

Today, where there is so much unhappiness in the world, with destitute hungering for food and shelter and the downtrodden craving for justice in the strife- torn world- a kind word, a loving touch or a friendly gesture go a long way in dispelling the pall of gloom.

Life is so short and true friendship so hard to come by. Wouldn’t it be better to always speak politely and softly rather than rant and rave and upset the feelings of others? After all, it costs nothing to be polite.

Being courteous and using carefully chosen kind words creates a feeling of warmth and happiness. The words may be simple, but they are bound to work wonders. Ridicule is the worst form of malice in speech, barbed words that play on meanings should be shunned, for they hurt people’s feelings and break up relationships.

People often cause pain and anguish with their harsh words, either possessed of a sharp temper or constrained by tension. Whatever be the reason, one bitter word can wound like the lethal blades of a hundred swords.

Undeniably, there are millions of people in the world who think little, act even less, but talk too much. And what do they talk about? Nothing worthwhile- they merely indulge in idle gossip, little realizing that the rumors may have no basis in the truth, thus bringing bad repute to an innocent person. Imagine the magnitude of untold misery that is caused to the person concerned!

The spoken or the written word makes a permanent impact on the people it is addressed to. The Mahabharata reveals how Lord Krishna’s advice in the battlefield left a deep impression on Arjuna’s mind and guided him to his duty as a warrior in the kurukshetra war.

So words, like fire, can either warm or burn you. No one would like to confront an angry man who hurls a torrent of abuses. Such words will surely burn your ears. On the other hand soothing words, or words of kindness, will sound like music to the ear.

As Edmund Burke remarked, a very great part of mischief that the world experiences arises from words. And words once spoken can never be retraced, ‘think before you speak’ is a true maxim as ‘look before you leap’. How forceful correct words are! Beware of the person who swains you with vain words. Likewise, excessive flattery should be taken with a pinch of salt.

Rudyard Kipling once said “words are the most powerful drugs used by the mankind.”

We would have fewer disputes in the world if words were taken for what they are; the signs of our ideas only, not for things themselves.
Words aptly spoken are like apples of gold in a pitcher of silver. So sprinkle goodness and endearing words everywhere.
