The Importance of 4th Estate
by Pradeep on Jan 25, 2005 11:30 AM

The importance of fourth estate in india shouldnt come down to the level of Impotence of fourth estate.

In India we our Fundamental rights enable each and every Indian citizen to enjoy Freedom to Express oneselves and Freedom of Speech.

When website like rediff.com starts to highlight articles like" Cry, my beloved India", were they thinking in these following lines?
(a)What was the objective of this article? is it to promote " Global Citizenship" or " Global divide by religon and countries"?
(b)Were the published article in their website factual?
(c)Was this article published to settle some personnel vendetta?

I as a reader wouldnt mind sensationalization of articles and topics, but what is one's role and responsible as widely read fourth estate? Ain't rediff.com acountable to their readers in their role as influencers and opinion creators? If it were to be a debate i am game!
May be the author has forgotten , India is a socially secular democratic republic country. So anyone can practise any religon. Buddism, Jainism, Taoism, Judaism or Hinduism hasn't died of in last 3 millinuems and also wouldnt die, even if there are no evangelist's, missionaries, ustads or Ulemas
