Wiki leaks Niira Radia and What not

The first is the representative phenomena at the world level where as the later one is of national level. Question is often asked, who is afraid of leak? The one who has a lot to hide is afraid of leaks. In most of these cases, it is showing the double face, our so called leaders are having.

World is dominated by policies of America. If any policy has to see the light it will have to have sanction of USA. Earlier USSR was also included in this. What happens when absolute power is given in some hands. Absolute power corrupts absolutely. Society should see to it that there must not be absolute power in any hands. We must accept that we are human being and every one suffers certain weaknesses. The one in power will try to accumulate power the one with money will try to accumulate money.

Surprisingly, even after these disclosures none are ready to accept the reality. The story of the naked king should be retold to them. It would have been much easier to accept the reality. What is wrong in accepting that one nation spies on other. There is certain perception about everything which cannot be told openly. Why USA should send apology to other nations. US government is not working for other nation but for its own people. And whatever is good for American should be pursued- even if that means supporting a rogue or killing and innocent. It is people of America who should judge their government. Though there is lot of hullabaloo over the exposure, it will be too much to expect from world over to react to the leaks. They will try every time to save exposed people because everyone is naked in the pool. They think that people are fool and few people have got higher intelligence than other. The same so called free media have gone silent. It is to be understood that they were never free. They were mouthpiece of somebody. And when that body was hurt they are told to keep quite not even cry.

While world over taken to retaliation by accusing the leaker of fraud and many other unlawful activities, in Bharat it has taken a different turn-Black out. At this time it looks media house are in hand in hand. Don’t say don’t talk. People have short memory every thing will be forgotten. Yes, every thing will be forgotten for they are not worth remembering. What is wrong in accepting in what you are. The problem is that we have projected our image to be greater than our real self and the image has become the burden for us.

Editors have bias- who does not know this fact? By saying that one does not know it is not fooling others but your own self. I don’t think anybody will object to that. In that sense I think few have been more open than others. It is very easy to appreciate Swapan Dasgupta, Chandan Mitra (of The Pioneer) and alike to accept their bias. That is open. Nobody will expect more from them. They will also not fall short in expectations of people. But Padgaonkar (of TOI) Vinod Sharma (of HT) Vinod Mehta (Outlook) and alike will never accept their allegiances, while it is bare open in every word they offer and every though they try to camouflage. Better not talk of TV anchor who are given unnecessary publicity for the word the word they utter. It appears, the chance to sit as the anchor comes with the quality of looking good and power to set aside logic and sensationalize every nonsense.

There was one piece of news which appeared and that was like a soothing balm in to the pain cause by everyone else. That was by Arun Shourie. He told it that all concerned people would go through the primary sources and understand the situation using their own intelligence. Relying on interpretation by other will not be good for anybody. We have to teach people to be that if something concerns them, then it should be studies thoroughly. That will give the power of knowledge in every hand. If one clear rest will follow.
