RE:TOI Church controlled paper

TOI is an insult to journalism. They are just surviving by writing endlessly abt film actors, cricketers, models , and so called Page 3 faltus. I have been a regular reader of TOI till date, and forgot whats the real journalism is.In between they write about secularism or some gender biased issues to just show that they are also there for some good cause. And they think its fashionable to write abt tht. Where as u look at Hindustan Times, Indian express, The Hindu ..they always write abt public issues . They take a stand in everything where as TOI is just makes sensation out of nothing. I appreciate if TOI is converted into full time taboid and focus on writing what rakhi sawant wears, sharukh eats or sachin drinks.It suits them and i assure theres a good market for this in india.There are 1000s celebrities just created by TOI and they have exclusive tie with them and share revenues also.
As common man is figting for his bread & butter, these politicians will be figting in the name of religion and in that way filling there own pockets.
EC is now cought in the cross fire as they have caught a right point in the current episode but as the people involved are high profilled , it will (or i would say it can not) not take any action.
-IF BY ABUSING MODI ALL 24 HOURS AND 365 DAYS -MUSLIMS WILL BE BENEFITED - PROGRESS--FEEL SECURE--THEN I WILL ALSO JOIN HATE MODI CAMPAIGN--WILL THE MUSLIM COMMON MAN COME OUT AND SAY -WHY THESE MODI HATERS ARE EXPECTING THAT MUSLIMS WILL VOTE FOR THEM IF THEY GO ON ABUSING MODI ? HOW MUSLIMS WILL GET BENEFITED BY ABUSING MODI? HOW MUSLIMS WILL PROGRESS BY DEFENDING SOHARABUDDIN?
Let all these congress morons and Teesta Stelvads say and do any damn thing, the truth is that they are frustrated and can't do any thing to stop Modi from coming back to power again. A person like Teesta have no morals and paid by congress (read Sonia and gang) to make issues out of nothing but unfortunately people of Gujarat are not fools to belive her.
The one-sided story against Narendra Modi has shown the level of yellow journalism that has crept into TOI. Named as the Tabloid of India, TOI has stooped down to the lowest levels in the hate Modi campaign. With my friends, I have started a campaign to mobilize Indians to unsubscribe TOI. I have already had 16 of my close family members unsubscribe. I am just glad that there is a huge body of people who think similar and are now adding to this effort.
Media bears the responsibility of presenting the truth, without putting in their own element of imagination or interpretation driven by various gains.
Please spread this campaign with all the passion and sincerity. Lets teach a fitting lesson to these media outlets specially TOI that if they appease minorities for unjustified reasons, we will give them what they deserve.

man people never take TOI seriously. It is just a piece of paper covering cine related events. They do very good Page3 type news. Otherwise it is a bullshit.

I agree (thats why I called it a tabloid) but the problem is that whosoever even glances at their first page would start to form a bad image about Modi and BJP.

DS, I am with you. That news paper is nothing but tabloid. I suggest you spread this word in the NRI communities to shift from TOI to some other news paper like express.

Sorry but THE HINDU---> Commie rag run by Naxal Ram. The Express--> American express. Pander shamelessly to Americans.
At the least there is some sanity prevailing in the Election Electorate. Hail Election Commision. Please do something before these Gujratis change the image of India. Jai Secularism... -Raj

Yes, only Gujaraties have capacity to change image of india ... and never non gujarati people like you
The series of anti Modi writing of Prashant Dayal on Time of India is just an evidence that TOI is under the ass of vested interests who Modi does not cater to. What does Dayal know about Gujarat and Modi's contribution to it's progress? To the very terrorism, the impotent central govt has bow down to, Modi has sole handedly fought. 45 years of congress rule has only delivered illitracy, poverty, neglect and deception. In last mere 7 years Modi has developed Gujarat at a fastest pace which congress could not stomach. Dayals should check the facts before pointing fingers. Dayal, where were you during Madhavsinh Solanki time when communal violence in Gujarat was a daily affair?

(Gunda) Raj.... sounds like you don't belong to India anyway, otherwise you would not be making a smartarse statement like not needing Patels in rest of India! Who are you to proclaim such thing? I think you do not have the aptitude to understand what a democracy is... or maybe you are one of those in Sonia's camp who just like to rant against one community. Just shut up...
What Times of India has done or is doing is nothing as compared to what some of the National TV News Channels are doing/propagating. (Some like NDTV have shifted their entire Estd as it were to Ahmedabad.) I do not belong to any political party but when I look at some of these broadcasts by these channels,I'm aghast that they can get away even with murder! All because they are considered to be "intellectuals" or "Secularists" or "thinkers" or "Progressives" or even "democrates" as an organisation of ladies has been named/lead by Vrinda Karat. Their only goal appears to be to bring communism to the country while it has been thown off the window by Russia. Take NDTV for example. It was the only group of channels to claim to be a "secular" channel whatever that might have meant! But not many knew that as reported the joint owner was the sister of Vrinda Karat, wife of Prakash Karat! That being the case what can you expect from these powerful media!

Being Anti Hindu is the only definition of secularism in india ... and it is spread by only so called hindus whose fathers are likely to be non hindus...
There is a motivated campaign against Modi and other BJP leaders. People write about muslims waiting for justice in this country and take up their cause so very readily. But when it comes to justice for people who got killed by the same muslims,no one raises their voice. They dont even hang a convicted guy just because he is a muslim. Things cant get worse than this.

Subhangi, what kind of 'Unfair Campaign' are you talking about?
Let me clarify you, In 2002 more than 2000 minorites were killed in Gujarat, and less than 200 fasist people were charged for this brutal crime and none was charged under POTA or TADA, most of them are roaming freely in Gujarat and on other hand for the murder of 58 person, more than 200 muslim were charged under TADA
I am not saying that guilty should not punished, But based on this statistics you will understand who has started "Unfair Campaign"

So, based on your logic if we calculate more innocent Hindus have died of Islamic radicalism than any other kind of violence in the country.
Act of terrorism is not possible without local moral support and logistical support.

This just proves that Modi is not targetting one community. He is targetting terrorism irrespective of community.
