Development !!


Any change in the earlier state of the events is called 'development' in Journalism. Journalists and people associate with media, especially of electronic media, always chase every little development in any news matter.

But when it becomes the slogan of a political party fighting for the biggest post of the political hierarchy it sounds interesting. Perhaps they may have their own definition of development. Any way with journalistic perspective change in the political leadership in the country is the latest development.

As the whole process of political campaigning took place with the help of media this time we will look at it with the journalistic perspective. The biggest development that has happened during past some weeks is the change of guards at centre with congress routing out miserably and Narendra Modi capturing the highest post with considerable majority to BJP in parliament.

If we randomly look at the developments post Modi government sworn in we can surely witness some 'flammable' statements of the party leaders. The party which was campaigning with a slogan of development suddenly shifted its attention towards the sensitive issues of Article 370, Common Civil Code and other such things.
Soon after Modi took the charge his party leader released a statement questioning the status of Article 370 which drew several favored and opposing voices across the nation. People of the country were not expecting this to happen at this point of time. People voted BJP for its promises of 'development' but not for such sensitive statements to create the flutter in the tranquility in the nation.

We will not comment on the necessity and revoking of Article 370 but we surely say that people of India are bothered more about their livelihood matters dealing with Gas subsidy, Petroleum prices, taxes and other such matters. It seems that government is trying to divert the attention of the people.

And that has happened indeed! Amid the Media frenzy about the Article 370 the central government made a decision to bring FDI in defence thus taking U turn from its previous stand on FDI. The party which was against FDI before election and moreover which protested, agitated and motivated people against FDI has come up with its latest definition of FDI. So kindly note this was the latest development took place amid the 'hangama' of other sensitive issues of 370 and CCC.
