Some days ago all major newspapers had a news on Mohan Baidhya led Maoist party. They had planted bombs at several places of the country to protest against current political agreement among 4 parties. The news made me wonder, Is that the right way to protest? Threatening innocent people of their life?Is Baidhya trying to get his dream fulfilled killing innocent people and threatening others with those killings?
Poor Nepalese people, their level of awareness is so low. The media , instead of being a watchdog for the people, serves as a loyal dog to the politicians and those with vested interest. No wonder, people can be fooled easily, threatened and used to fulfill the interest of these politicians.
Media should have covered the news in a different angle. Instead of glorifying Baidha's action of placing bombs at several places, they should have made people aware that these politicians play with general public lives to achieve their political aims. Media could have united all the people against this and threatened all political leaders that people are not the pawns in their hands.
Really feel pity for my people and media, who keeps on watching this instead of condemning these kind of actions.
