Prime minister Narinder Modi’s visit to Leh,Kargil 12Aug’2014

I have a tremendous regard for senior journalist Satish Jacob.But, I differ from him,when he says that,PM’s remarks on Pakistan are “irrelevant”.This, he said,while expressing his views, on a TV channel,today.

Well, Mr.Jacob,in his own right,can express his point of view.But I would like to assert that, when the Prime minister tries to bring the neighbors across the negotiating table, to discuss issues,we waste no time in terming this as, “soft approach”,on part of a prime minister,who spoke very hard,when in opposition.

And, when the Prime minister really talks hard, and tries to call a spade a spade, in terms of,the position of our neighbor, having lost the strength, to indulge in a conventional war,thus indulging in a proxy war against India,we call his statement as “irrelevant”.

Then what sort of relevance, do we expect,should our Prime minister, attribute to his statement, while commenting on the position of a neighbour,who is hostile, and homes fundamental elements, responsible for spreading hatred in our country.

Whose army cuts the heads off the body of our valiant jawans.

Whose representatives on various news channels,as panelists utter that,India dare not touch Pakistan.And if we do so, they can rub us off from the world globe.If you are asked to give a befitting reply to this,what would you say,Mr.Jacob.

We,as journalists,can, in no way call a statement of the head of the nation as “irrelevant”.if ,at all,we don’t like the statement,or feel that the timing of such statement is not appropriate,we can put it likewise in different terminology,instead, terming it as “Irrelevant”.That too, when the PM refers to a hostile nation.

JAI HIND.
