The Patahi girl's anguish
by Jaganniwas Iyer on Feb 22, 2007 03:49 PM   Permalink | Hide replies

Unfortunately, the poor girl from Patahi is not in the same league as Shilpa Shetty or Preeti Jain or other such bimbos. Sticking up for her is not going to help the NGOs, human rights wallahs, candlewallahs, Setalvads, Shabanas, Mahesh Bhatts, etc. make either millions or gain mileage. Also, she is from Bihar, where 'social justice' is the norm, which means these things will soon be forgotten. There's nothing in it for the 'secular' media - neither TRPs, which means moolah, nor any political benefit, nor big bucks from advertisisng. Understand? This is 'India poised', as some newspapers are screaming day in and day out.

If media takes up the issue it will turn this issue where these so called elites will jump in to have their share of limelight

Remember Prince out of that small unknown kid. Media can help this poor girl in a long way if they take up the issue. If any one has contact with news channel pls request them to take up the issue & bring it as a big news in television channel and run a string of SMS to further the girls cause.
