| In last one week Mumbai bore the brunt again! Violence, hatred and life coming to a standstill! The media cried out that Raj and his party is goonda. That Mahrashtra has become intolerant to its own country men! That Marathi’s are backward people meting out a secondary treatment to its own countrymen. The leaders from North like Laloo, Mulayam, Nit...

Some others say that why only on one particular day women are thought about and why not all the 365 days of the year. Some even find it derogatory! I agree to th...

| Modi, a hero |
| Though I also operate within the realms of Indian English media, though I am aware of its “pseudo-secular” credentials, I was baffled by the kind of lop-sided, anti-Modi coverage of the Gujarat elections, especially in the electronic media. The English newspapers and news channels declare themselves as “unbiased and secular” while they act as if th...
