revival

After moving from the media to now pursuing a social degree my life has changed. for the better i think...instead of taking about sanjay dutt amitabh now far more weighty issues like dr.lohia's philosphy ,ericksons psychosocial development theory are things am grappling with...and trust me hitting the books might not be easy but knowledge sure brings power. I now think i was a deprived child of the masses who now at a later stage is maturing...working in a news channel i was wasting my most precious resource my brain.....for all those attracted by the glamour of the 24 news channel business the mundane life is not visible nor the slow death of awareness.....the ebbing is so slow that one does not have the will to fight it. maybe i am taking of the people involved in the business today when i say a whole lot are educationally backward in the true sense of the term...a whole new world has developed before our eyes and a lot of research has gone into its growth which is entirely missed by us as media professionals....i was told that there is a term called intelligent reporting ...well what i learnt was talking by rote is intelligent...to make the point clearer a lot of us covered the reservations issue and if one was to look at it one would assume that the nation was against it on the basis of the aiims doctors, iit engineers testimonials but hold on what do they know of being deprived.....our great nation has been for thousand of years depriving people and you want 60 years of reservation to balance the equation?.....a lot of thinkers have written and addressed the problem of equality and what is sad is that water hosing of students has made the media wash away their viewpoints to present a nation against reservations ......

reading is what i have started doing after a very long period of time and am very glad that i got the chance to learn instead of existing for the sake of occupying space...
