High time to stop irresponsible and insensitive media reporting in India

Twitterati Are Roasting Rajdeep Sardesai For Interviewing Rhea Chakraborty

As we all know, on 27th August 2020 an interview of Rhea Chakraborty was telecasted on NDTV, AajTak and India Today. Despite knowing that she was a prime suspect in Sushant Singh Rajput's case she is openly victimizing herself on national television. 

This is not the first time such kind of incident has taken place on national television by media. Indian media has done many irresponsible and insensitive reporting in the past as well. At the time when Sushant passed away, his father was hounded by cameras from everywhere and was asked continuously how is he feeling. I mean really? A father who has lost his child will dance with joy or what.

Even when there are natural calamities we find that the first question every reporter asks is how are you feeling. This kind of question is something really out of context when you are standing in a place where people are dying. 

At times, Indian media have behaved in such an irresponsible and insensitive manner that it feels as if they are spineless or emotionless towards others. It is very important for the media to stop reporting a sensitive issue with insensitivity. The public should also come forward and chid and criticise the behaviour of media so that the media houses can understand the power of public.  After all, they are accountable to public for their actions.

How online education is proving to be the biggest failure in India

As we all know that the schools have been closed due to COVID 19 pandemic and the students have been taking online classes from the last few months. Online classes are becoming the biggest failures in India. Some of the reasons for the failure of online classes are bad internet connectivity. Despite knowing that all the work around the world is being done online, the cellular networks are not increasing their network speed due to which the class gets hampered.  One of the other reasons can be that students do not have a habit to take classes online and that also on laptops and computers. They do not learn until they get scolded or shouted upon. That system has completely led to the failure of the classes as you do not know whether your concepts are clear to the students or not.  The teachers are also facing a lot of issues in taking online classes as all the matter needs to be written well before hand so that the explanation becomes easier. The setting up of the class like env...

National Pepper Pot Day: A dish that won the war

National Pepper Pot Day is celebrated to remember the dish that was nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day is marked annually on December 29. There was a very terrible and ruthless cold in 1777-1778.  The Continental Army was fighting for the newly formed United States of America during the Revolutionary War. As the soldiers camped at Valley Forge in 1997 on December 29, George Washington asked the chef of the army to make a meal which would warm them and boost their spirits.  The chef took some tripe, pieces of meat, pepper and other ingredients and made Pepper Pot Soup, which was also known as Philadelphia Pepper Pot Soup. The soup was enjoyed by the troops and nicknamed as the soup which won the war. The day can be enjoyed by making Pepper Pot Soup and the recipe of the same is available online.
