ThePrint chooses it’s battles very cleverly. Where was the outrage when the Supreme Court watered down the anti-stray dog verdict? It simply didn’t care for two reasons-
1. The Editor/Founder Mr. Shekhar Gupta personally loves stray dogs and has been a long time champion for all kinds of idiotic animal rights.
2. It was very clearly a battle between the elites and the common man. The elites just love stray dogs and indulge them with food and what not.
Unfortunately, for the common man, a stray dog represents a serious threat to the safety and security of his family, especially kids and the elderly. Kids being mauled to death by gangs of strays are a regular occurrence in India.
These elites, including the likes of Mr. Gupta, threw in all their might in the battle to “save” stray dogs. The Supreme Court, as is the norm, bowed before the combined might of the elites of Indian society.
Who lost? The common man – who is eternally worried about his kids safety and security. Who himself gets chased by such dogs every now and then while going to or returning from the office or the market.
The elites won at the cost of the aam aadmi.
But ThePrint showed no outrage. Rather, it was at the forefront of the pro-dog media coverage.
In this case (the one referred to in the article), again the elites (Adani, etc.) won. At whose expense? Of course, the common man (Paranjoy Guha Thakurta, etc.)
But now ThePrint haa decided to go hammer and tongs at the Indian judiciary for protecting the elites.
It’s really a weird world that we live in.
