All hell broke loose when Times of India ,few days back , published the news
of Darul Uloom VC Maulana Vastavi lauding Gujarat . Maulana Vastavi was in
fact speaking about the all-inclusive development happening in Gujarat and
the importance of education for Muslims to enjoy the real fruits of this
development as explained in this excellent article

rise-versus-entitlements/>  by offstumped.

 

Same media houses that lazily, reluctantly covered the magnificent vibrant
Gujarat Summit went into an overdrive producing articles after articles
denouncing Maulana Vastavi. Since Times of India started this, it felt the
maximum obligation to contain the damage as shown in the reporting pattern
of  Times of India below.

praise?

 

As you see, ToI alone has produced daily 2/3 articles bashing Modi and
discrediting Vastanvi .If you include other news articles it comes to more
than 70 articles since last 3 days. The ultimate objective is either Maulana
Vastanvi goes back on his statement or resigns from his post so that Modi
can be put back to the same media space reserved for him. Interestingly, the
left-liberal visual media ignored this news as doing it may take maulavi's
message to a much larger audience. Better to hide what can not be defended
easily.

The most astonishing thing is all this is happening when Modi made no
attempt to use Vastanvi's endorsement to his advantage. In fact Modi has
always shown grace dealing with media , advocated the importance of media in
a democracy and the constructive role media can play in India.If Modi speaks
to media they say he is brash and ugly, If he does not they say he has no
remorse. Same media that does not dare to write a single word against Gandhi
family calls Modi
Hitler,Nero,mass-murderer,rabble-rouser,shrill,communal,anti-muslim,megaloma
niac,autocrat in the most brazen way and if anyone challenges this notion be
it Amitabh Bachan or maulana Vastanvi media goes after them with vengeance.

 

When modi speaks about 10% growth, knowledge economy, science, green energy,
agriculture modernization, waste management, smart cities, infrastructure
etc. our media writes about 2002 Godhra, 2002 Godhra and 2002 Godhra. It
seems as if  the career of a media person is directly proportional to number
of anti-Modi projects he/she has undertaken.

In my earlier post I had reflected upon
<http://desh2014.wordpress.com/2011/01/10/why-do-they-hate-narendra-modi/>
"Why do they hate narendra Modi" and I am totally convinced that even if all
the Muslims of Gujarat praise Modi's development policy, the media will
still retain Modi's status-quo.

 

Question is what is the objective of the media? The ominous objective is to
keep Narendra Modi away from national politics so that the prince can occupy
the throne unchallenged.

The strategy  to achieve this objective is to create an impression that Modi
is not acceptable outside Gujarat so that he will face enough resistance
within BJP, from its allies ,  from the Congress and from the media.

 

The tool to implement this strategy is to maintain the communal,anti-muslim
image of Modi. Sonia-led Congress has outsourced this task to CBI, media ,
ATS , NGOs ,the self-proclaimed activists and "civil-society".

 

Rather than defeating Congress, the real challenge in front of Modi is how
to fight all these external agents to lead BJP at the national level. I hope
the central BJP leaders will also realize that in Modi the future lies (For
the party and the country) and help Modi with all the support he requires.
Modi deserves JUSTICE from all the canards,slanders,abuses and
untouchability he had faces in past 8 years.

 

P.S. : The day India gets governance in stead of government , India will
also get the true 4th pillar of democracy in stead of news manufacturer and
brokers.
