Yes, there is crime all around us. But when it is unfolding on the TV screen inside our homes 24x7, something’s got to give. I live in constant fear of what.

All the trumpeting of Trump 2.0 on Indian news channels was soon muted by Trump’s executive orders on illegal immigration and ending birthright citizenship.
With the focus on ‘Rituals, Reverences, Rites,’ news channels barely have time for other stories. The Delhi Assembly election campaign occasionally peeks in and out.
Midway through 2024, Hindi and English news channels found their sense of balance. Once Congress lost Haryana and Maharashtra, they went back to openly supporting the Modi govt.
Today’s news headlines reflect a very different Rahul Gandhi, Congress, and INDIA compared to June, when his every step and word were closely followed by the media and the public.
The heartbreaking death of babies in the Jhansi hospital was major news—for one day. Manipur doesn’t even get a headline on most days. It's all about Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections.

The violence witnessed on a daily basis in West Bengal puts even Bihar and other so called “BIMARU” states to shame. Bengal, quite clearly, has the worst law and order situation in the entire country.
Underpinning this culture of violence is the malevolent politics unique to West Bengal. Every single political party arms its cadres to the teeth with kattas (country made pistols), crude bombs, Molotov cocktails, etc. These cadres have their territories marked out and fights over control of an area are quite common. Nothing is out of bounds in such fights. Crude bombs and Molotov cocktails are manufactured by the thousands in almost every village. Recently, the BBC even released a documentary titled “Children of the Bombs”.
Add to this the rapidly changing demographic profile with massive influx of illegal immigrants from Bangladesh – aided and abetted by the TMC administration. A perfect recipe for widespread carnage and destruction.
