Vadodara erupted and the channels found a great TRP boosting event. Unlike Kashmir killings that ironically don't 'sell', Vadodara, a city in Vibrant Gujarat was burning and channels could not leave the opportunity.
When a man was burnt alive the Ajtak anchor again and again asked the reporter, 'Has he been identified?'. So these foolish anchors want the name and thus the religion so that city could go to flames again and again. Where is that sacrosanct principle of not counting deads by their religion, gone?
Earlier, everybody was saying that dargaah was 200-year-old. The reporters hadnot done their homework and were not saying how such an old structure can be encroachment. Even the name of the Sufi Saint was not reported on most channels the first day. What kinda reporting is that?

Well Said! Even I want to know how a 300/200 yr old structure became an encroachment. Someone pls explain.
Right. If its 200 years old, obviously it is the city that encroached on the shrine, not the other way around. I think I read that line in Indian Express.
