I heard about Rajdeep Sardesai attacked by an NRI in New York. My first reaction was that it was wrong. Journalists, good or bad should not be touched. That is the first rule of a free society and a democracy. Violence must and can never be the way to express your point of view. It is not the Hindu way. VIOLENCE AGAINST JOURNALISTS SHOULD BE SHUNNED AT ALL COSTS.
Then I saw the video of the entire event. It started off as a heated argument with two Indian men. Nothing wrong with that. It still is a free exchange of views. But then out of the blue, Sardesai uses a profanity and lunges at the NRI. It was shocking to see that the “attacker” was actually the victim. It should not have been be shocking knowing the violent proclivities of leftists like Sardesai who want to be right no matter what the cost.
After watching the video, I must say that the moment Sardesai lunged at the NRI, he ceased to be a responsible journalist and became a leftist goon in the vein of the CPI or Trinamool or SP or BSP goons / “gundas”. After that all bets are off. I am happy to see that fellow NRIs did not join in and beat the daylights out of Sardesai in a fit of anger. Good show guys!! We are proud of the NRI’s showing this kind of restraint.
There is a bigger issue at work here. The typical Indian English media maven will sell themselves to the highest bidder and if shortchanged, will shamelessly use the bully pulpit i.e. yelling and screaming and try to shame their customer in public to get what they want. Sardesai and his entire ilk hold everyone who disagrees with them in pathetically low esteem. If you are a conservative Hindu nationalist who cannot speak fluent English then you really are down on their list with drug dealers and pimps; even lower than terrorists (you can guess why). What my venting indicates is that their behavior is infuriating. You really want to tear this bastard into pieces but you must control your anger. You must find another outlet to express your point of view. VIOLENCE MUST BE SHUNNED AT ALL COSTS. If you really want to punish the left wing media, then stop watching their TV shows. Lower TRPs will destroy these irresponsible journalists.
Going back to the event in Manhattan, you can see that despite of being the aggressor, this wretch managed to manipulate things and project himself as the victim. He has the media and fellow irresponsible wretches in the Editors Guild who were only too quick to jump to this man’s defence. The NRI who is just a common man has no one to back and support him. We are all helpless at the hands of these mass manipulators yelling lies on TV. Bleak, isn’t it? Not really.
We have gotten our revenge on every single pimp in the Indian media. They ran a systematic campaign to destroy Narendra Modi for over a decade, left no stone unturned to deny him the top job. And yet, we Indian went and voted for the man and won him the seat in an overwhelming margin. And if that were not enough, we can clearly see that Modi has shown media their real place in Indian polity - under the voter's shoe.
Q: CAN THERE BE A HARDER, MORE VISCIOUS SLAP ON RAJDEEP SARDESAI AND HIS ILK THAN NARENDRA MODI IN PM’s CHAIR?
A: NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Dear fellow Indians. I beg of you. Do not get angry and take matters in your own hands. We have the right man in PM’s chair who knows exactly how to handle Sardesai and his ilk. Work hard to ensure Modi’s success – now and in future. Ensure that BJP wins every forthcoming election. That would be our revenge on the criminally biased leftist English language media in India and every left wing thug who has made you feel small and helpless. Let your effort and vote do the slapping not your hand.
