Govt’s communication arm proposed RFID accreditation cards for journalists in January. Home ministry mulling proposal, but officers say tough to implement it.
News channels were also in two minds about removing stray dogs to the government dog pounds. NDTV took credit for it and CNN-News 18 called ‘controversial order’.
Centre for Science and Environment in new report makes case for rationalising GST on waste material, saying most informal operators can’t afford high tax & it also hinders recycling.
21st edition of annual joint military exercise will be held from 1 to 16 September, aimed at sharing military tech, operational best practices & disaster relief coordination methods.
Standing up to America is usually not a personal risk for a leader in India. Any suggestions of foreign pressure unites India behind who they see as leading them in that fight.
I at a loss to understand why The Print should carry a fake story and what’s the intention of Shekar Guptaji. The reliability and genuinity of news reports have become a thing of the past. There is no denying the fact that Smriti Irani is leaving no stone unturned to stifle the voice of the press by different means. Is it show that nothing can stop The Print to carry reports or stories at their will and whim.
The headline is far more sensational than the actual contents of the article. I am not clear how you are getting the impression that government is trying to regulate the media by merely thinking of giving cards to accredited journalists which records which government building they entered at what time and left at what time. And even this, is just a discussion item at PIB, on which there is no progress. It is unfortunate that The Print is rapidly descending into the realm of fake news.
महान पत्रकारिता आज देखने को मिली जो पत्रकार रोज TV पर पानी पी कर भारत के चुने हुए प्रधानमंत्री को सुबह से शाम गाली देते और सलमान लालू जैसे दोषी लोगों के गुण-गाण करते देखे जा रहे है।
FAKE है तो है कहा?
Do you even understand how RFID works?
Based purely on what you said about RFID card replacing the non tech id cards, if considered true, is only to make duplication, forging and tempering of them difficult.
Please don’t paint technology as per your political opinion.
So like the Bhim army or the Karni Sena or some random sect followers of Agra or Sirsa.. is this like yet another Bloc that must rise unitedly to safeguard “own” turf against the oppressor? Why not? Can the world of journalism be any less holier than that of judiciary? So what if justice keeps languishing in the lybranthine corridors of courts and blind procedures, so what if the “news” gets perpetrated/planted bereft of any “truth”, the principles of demand and supply will keep on feeding these hollow institutions like any other trade house feeds on the poor consumer.. Sadly, these other pillars of democracy have done precious little themselves to put their own houses in order. Haven’t they decayed as much as the other two, the lagislature and the executive? Competitive corruption is a norm, self correction be damned. Hail Democracy!
Reversing Irani’s threat to deroster journalists for so-called “Fake News”was a planned tactic by the Modi govt to purport the PM as a great defender of democracy! Seeing her general tone and tenor, including denying Prasar Bharati employees their salary, and now with her intention to track journalists, the unlettered Irani (remember, Modi made this 12th pass gasbag who lost her Lok Sabha election his minister in charge of educating the largest population of aspirational youth on earth) should be awarded her Hitler moustache!
Interesting that The Print worries about tracking of journalist through RFID, which can happen only within government offices. However, those skeptical of Aadhaar, which can be used to literally lay out the entire life of a person on a nice little dashboard, were disparagingly dismissed as belonging to the ‘Wine and Cheese’ club. Someday, hopefully, we’ll read in “National Interest” why threat of tracking through RFID is more sinister than that of surveillance through Aadhaar! Till then, more power to you to raise voice against any violation of individual’s privacy.
We are getting maximum government, for sure. Whether maximum governance as well remains unclear. Foreign policy was supposed to be one of the major success stories. Ms Jyoti Malhotra’s column in IE today presents a forensic report card for the neighbourhood.

Pib clearly denied this …. yet another fake piece of crap article.

This lady has really gone mad.
Well
What else can you expect from a 10th fail B grade actress.
