Tihar jail: Ultimate shopping destination

 

                           "The darker side always heavier than the lighter side" the perceptions of people about jail is the place where all the bad people of the society are kept behind the bars. So their criminal mind doesn’t play games and spoil social environment again as they are responsible for their lamentable behaviour. But in true terms jail is not the place to punish but to get better out of the person and make them responsible member of society. Tihar jail has understood the correct definition of jail by switching prison to shopping centre.

                           Earlier Tihar Jail was famous as the home of famous politically background criminals with the likes of Shahabuddin and Pappu Yadav but know it is slowly changing its identity by becoming one of the best manufacturing unit of the country. Its factory comprises of baking, carpentry, weaving, tailoring, oil extraction, paper-making and shoe-making.

                         All the products manufactured with the hard work of the prisoners and all the products are ISO certified and of better quality, reasonable price compare to its competitors in the market. Its main objective is to convert its inmates into normal members of the society by providing them with useful skills, education and rules. Various government departments such as Directorate of education, Social welfare department, Industrial training institutes, Polytechnic colleges, Delhi high court Navy and Parliament house, various cooperation’s and Tribunals etc are the main purchaser of Tihar Jail products.

                        There is always a debate on the wages given to the prisoners they are exploited by giving low wages. There income is categorised in to three parts skilled worker get Rs 52 per day, semi skilled worker gets Rs 44 per day and unskilled worker gets 40 per day. It is certainly not the reward for their master work in this inflation era. The jail authorities need to take this problem seriously.

                       For everyone home is paradise but the Tihar jail authorities shaped jail as a paradise for prisoners. They are provided with many facilities like education, health check-up, yoga and all the festival from Diwali to Holi are celebrated in a great way. Many prisoners after their jail term become so skilled that they start their own business after the training they get from jail. Tihar jail is not only jail but a employment guarantee factory.

 New face of terrorism in India

                      The snake named “Terrorism” has covered the globe. Terrorism is like a cancer that is finishing the nations internally .Terrorism has changed its meaning in India know it is not the Muslim terror groups like al-quada are responsible for terror attacks in India but Hindu groups are playing their part and forgetting the definition of humanity and giving a new definition of terrorism. Why terrorism is becoming stronger in India? Is India is paying price of being a secular country.

                      There is rise of Hindu groups from sadhu pragya to swami Asnanand are all responsible of destroying the image of sadhu’s in India.  In recent years, the Indian Muslims have started talking about Hindu terrorism as if all the problems in Kashmir and elsewhere in India are mostly due to the Hindu intolerance towards Muslims. They have successfully fooled few third rated thinkers with their half truths and some politicians at times like to promote Muslim’s views of Hindu terrorism. Because of this, in India, recently a new term is coined – the ‘Saffron terror’, which is allegedly inspired by Hindu fundamentalism. Since Saffron terror is relatively a newer issue, the present author wants to discuss a bit about the origin and the significance of the Saffron and how much link does it have with terrorism. Therefore there are sufficient evidences that the holy Saffron color has nothing to do with terrorism. Rather it had been associated with sacrifice and salvation. The Hindu ‘Sanyasis’ (a Hindu who has no attachments to worldly things) and the Buddhist monks who have left their home in search of the ultimate truth had been wearing this color for several thousand years before the birth of Islam. The term Saffron terror is a deliberate misinformation. Muslims use this term for obvious reasons and some Indian politicians use it for Muslim sycophancy. This is the famous vote-bank politics of India

                      In most of the recent attacks hindu terrorism is played its major role from Samjota express blast to Ajmar bomb and mainly on muslim places is going to create serious problem in the country’s atmosphere. Rahul Ghandhi already said it “Hindu terrorism is more dangerous than Al-quada. Unity among the people is the only medicine will going to solve disease named “Hindu Terrorism”

       

      Journalists are real detective     

                            

                             The world around has became a den of fast growing changes and evolutions. With the transforming social trends, and progressing economic fashions, the global scenario has indeed became a spectacle profound evolvement. The field of journalism which firmly and aptly reflects the transforming social scenario across the world has also immensely redefined itself. Formerly concerned only with informing people about the prevailing situations, journalism job is now elevated to becoming a global platform for creating news, rather than depicting just plain truth.

                              

                           There is mixture of political and investigative journalism in India they are the two main pillars of media and people are more interested in this type of journalism it not only increase the TRP of a particular channel or newspaper but people also develop the identity regarding journalists as a solider of the society that against all the illegal happening in the society and bring out truth in front of the people. Since the 1980s when investigative journalism emerged in India the Bofors scandal is considered one of the first and most influential pieces of Indian investigative journalism. This scandal involved the Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi who was accused of receiving kickbacks from the Bofurs Company. In 1996 another land mark case emerged when the story of the fodder scam broke. This scam again involved the Indian government as it was stated that embezzlement from the treasury of the Indian state Bihar has been ongoing.  The 2G spectrum, CWG scam and Adarsh society are the recent and successful cases of investigative journalism.   

                   

                            Modern investigative journalism is a discipline, rigorous and demanding. Modern journalism despite its many aberration, is considered the most effective monitor and upholder of democratic values. Democracy involves accountability of elected representatives and civil servants. There are many mechanisms for checks and balances, but these can be abused, circumvented, ignored or made ineffective. Investigative reporting steps in to this vacuum to scrutinise and expose the wrong – doings of those in authority which hurt public interest and make them accountable to the people.
