Bloodied hands
Post Godhra, hundreds of citizens were killed in police firing. Ministers holding important portfolios boasted in the media about the police killing in Gujarat, as if it was a norm. We saw Uma Bharti (in Big Fight, Rajdeep Sardesai-NDTV), Narendra Modi (interview with Sanjay Pugaliya-Zee News) and a minister in Gujarat cabinet (Khuli Bahas, Zee News) mention the killings to prove that the state government was responding to the violence. In none of theseprogrammes did the concerned journalist enquire about the people killed by the police in the name of containing riots.
