Supreme Court says it doesn't want to come in the way of journalism, but is concerned with the 'vilification' & 'stereotyping' of Muslims in the Sudarshan News show.
In episode 569 of #CutTheClutter, Shekhar Gupta explains how Supreme Court made several valid points about Sudarshan News but in banning the show, may have set a bad precedent.
A reporter climbs Ladakh mountain, another asks a postman why he tore down Kangana Ranaut’s office, and yet another calls an FB session a ‘secret tape’. TV isn’t news anymore.

Pure unadulterated whataboutary. What’s the connection with Pakistani Hindus in this article? Are you a Modiot?
Journalism has to change its attitude and avoid publications of religion, caste or language based divisive statistics and create misunderstandings . Headings should be appropriate than just to arouse interest. Hypes by Sudarshan or some other channels or media about Hinduism is consequence of hypes by Muslims to refuse Uniform Code, secret agenda of increase in Muslim population, conversion of Hindu women to Islam after marriage……Today many muslims donot feel Indian which is highly damaging for India but how to identify them. Modiji is trying ONE NATION THEORY in practically all aspects so of Indian living which I think Media should fully support in a diplomatic and decent manner without hurting sentiments of any religion.
why are the muslims putting their kids to madrasas, if they want education should they not be put to apolitical non ideological institutes of learning, say govt schools, why is tax payers money used for madrasa education, which has no science or maths, why the mullahs support this and more importantly the muslims support this madrasaa?
Islamphobhics&muslim haters are doing gorila attacks by using media&then they wait for the response from public,readers&majority community,if the response is favourable they up the ant if not it will help them get popularity,trp’s& political mileage,this has become a norm now for all the bigots who want get instant fame.
This is good to read: a sober, rational view of an issue that is being blown out of all proportion by media – mass, social and anti-social – that thrives on stoking the fires of divisive politics so that the benumbed and bewildered masses will dutifully polarize themselves into the ranks of ‘Us’ and ‘Them’.
Particularly well made is the point that when Muslims make up 15% of the population but only 3.68% of graduates, it is perfectly understandable and logical that Muslims will make up only 3-5% of civil services cadres! This underlines the imperative need to focus on getting more Muslim children into mainstream schools, from which they may move on to graduate and thereby progressively increase their presence among the civil service cadres. That’s the crux of the issue. Let us not be swayed by the rabid ravings of the loonies who fatten themselves by pitting Muslims and Hindus against one another.
Why is the educated percentage so low in Muslim communities ?Economically weaker sections in hindus , have better percentage of educated folks than those of same strata in muslims. There are stories of poor hindu parents trying to educate their children. i am yet to hear similar stories about muslims. Only education can change the state and status quo for anyone.
If one has a bonafide aspiration to join civil service it is one thing. In this case, it seems that the Muslim candidates for civil service exams are trained by Institutes which are financed by Zakat. One wonders, if these candidates succeed and become civil servants, whom will they obey, and whoses orders and directions they will follow – of the duly elected government, or their masters abroad who want to take over the so-called “Steel Framework” of Indian Government?
So what do we expact from the officers trained by institute sponcered by RSS, to whom they will loyal because untill recently RSS does not recognise the tricoloure as national flag…
Right on the target.?
Will the Print, the media and even the Muslims analyse the situation of Pakistani Hindus and Sikhs?

What happened to HINDUS in pakistan Afghanistan and Bangladesh
What would have happened to HINDUS if they were in minority in INDIA
What type of law would be adopted if HINDUS were in minority.
INDIA is democratic and will only remain democratic till HINDUS are in majority
We have seen recent reports from pakistan where the majority is killing each other because they are from a different sects.
So stop blaming HINDUS and improve from within by being tolerant.
