This is a ster­ling ex­am­ple of bril­liant jour­nal­ists of es­tab­lished mast­heads in­dulging in rank cor­rupt jour­nal­ism, mo­ti­vated by their bi­ases, not due to any lack of knowl­edge. Van­dita Mishra of the In­dian Ex­press is not some­one who will not no­tice or will for­get to men­tion Arvind Ke­jri­wal play­ing com­mu­nal card in Pun­jab, car­ry­ing out Tiranga Ya­tras and Shanti Marches, and mak­ing overt speeches about the threat that Hin­dus face in Pun­jab. None of this is men­tioned in this ex­pan­sive story in the In­dian Ex­press to­day.

IT DOES NOT HAP­PEN BY OMIS­SION.  THIS IS AN ACT OF COR­RUPT JOUR­NAL­ISM BY COM­MIS­SION. And for cred­i­bil­i­ty’s sake, you need some­one bril­liant to com­mit it.

Van­dita Mishra’s go­rilla jour­nal­ism (para­chute jour­nal­ism is dif­fer­ent; that only in­volves lack of knowl­edge) did not in­volve sniff­ing for news, or she would have been go­ing ham­mer and tongs to find out who told Ke­jri­wal about the threat to Hin­dus in Pun­jab.

Lis­ten to Ke­jri­wal him­self: “Kal ek aadmi aaya mere paas. Mu­jhe ke­hta hai ji ke ji main Hindu hun, aur aaj Pan­jab mein Hin­du’on ke mann mein, khaaskar vya­pariyon ke mann mein, surak­sha ko le ke bahut chinta chal rahi hai!”

So, not Bhag­want Mann, not a sin­gle AAP MLA, not a sin­gle AAP worker told Ke­jri­wal. “Ek aadmi” told Ke­jri­wal that Hin­dus in Pun­jab are liv­ing in mor­tal fear. And he comes and tells Ke­jri­wal: “Ji, main Hindu hun!” Which Hindu meets an­other per­son and says, “Ji, main Hindu hun?”

Raghav Chadha and other chad­dhi-friends of Ke­jri-Raghav are do­ing the same thing in Pun­jab. BJP has a real com­peti­tor on the Aantrik Surak­sha turf — and that com­peti­tor is its col­lab­o­ra­tor, too.

These were the peo­ple Ra­je­wal and com­pany were talk­ing to? Shame!

The change Pun­jab is look­ing for is not a demi-Hindu party called AAP. Pun­jabis have suc­cess­fully chal­lenged the com­mu­nal­ism of Modi, and will also re­buff the com­mu­nal­ism of Chotta Modi called Ke­jri­wal.

Pun­jabis need to be care­ful! There are too many Modis roam­ing about. Big Modi, Small Modi, Clown Modi, Clone Modi!

Pun­jabis need to be care­ful! There are too many Modis roam­ing about. Big Modi, Small Modi, Clown Modi, Clone Modi!

On Wednes­day, Naren­dra Modi de­liv­ered a speech along Aantrik Surak­sha lines in Pathankot. On Tues­day, Ke­jri­wal beat him to it by de­liv­er­ing the speech in ad­vance of the prime min­is­ter. It is the same speech. It is bunkum.

Do not vote for any Modi.
