Friends,
1. Sad to say about Arnab Goswami- 10 times MP from Assam Late Dinesh
Goswami- who did nothing for Assam oter than owning huge property in
Delhi.Arnab never seen on TV to talk for Assam, h being an Assamese mostly
seems to question like a judge only.
2.Pronoy Roy- From silchar, Asamese educated.But never seen to say that he is
an Assamese, nor talk for the region he originated from!!!
3. Sandeep Phukan- in NDTV- never to talk for Assam.
and so many-----------
It we to go ahead with all......
Only Priyanjana Dutta at Bangalore IBN live told me they have no way, only
what the bureau says, they need to carry out.
But Arnab could have done lot......
My one mail is missing from here.I finally decided to go ahead with petition
to the President,PM,NCW Dr girija Vyas and copy to Our CM with all .....
Will expose later after submitting these.
Thanks to all who did contributed me in my writings.Thanks Alpana and
Mr.Nayanjyoti Medhi.

Subject: [Assam] Mob strips woman protester in Guwahati - Times of India
1. From the outrage we are seeing here, people are
more concerned at Assam's Image NOT at modesty of the
woman (refer postings of BD, JS) .
First, please clarify the reason of this outrage
2. A picture often speaks much more then a thousand
line .... that is why photo journalism exists.
Without this picture you would not have seen such
reactions (Quote from CM --- "They are animals").
you as a lawyer should know it better that the
impression this picture is going to have on a judge is
much more then a thousand lines. In US court system,
pictures do play a vital role (I have some interest in
law though I am not a lawyer)
3. Every person in the society has their own role to
play ......By your logic, a journalist covering war
should go and treat war victims instead of reporting.
Journalists are often termed as heartless but because
they are, you can become aware of the crime happening
around the world.
Did the media person Arnab Goswami (who is being
highly praised) try to resist the hooligans ?
4. If media would have given the photos to
police/government instead of publishing it, there
would NOT have been the pressure on government and
Government would have hushed up the matter (as they
tried initialy)
5. If media people start flocking the court as
witnesses, will advocates cover their role ?
6. Many are pointing that media was wrong but you as
an advocate can easily file a lawsuit against media if
they are wrong. Will you?
7. As an advocate, will you represent the victims
(this and other similar cases) pro-bono
8. For every criminal case, you have a criminal
advocate trying to save the criminal. Can you, as an
advocate, give us assurance that NO advocate will
represent these (or other similar) criminals?
9. Will you, as an advocate, file a PIL against GOA
as to why they failed to control the situation?
I am all with you to protect Assam's interest ... .
But you seem to be blaming the wrong person for
degrading Assam ...... count me in if you are
condemning the right set of people .... the
government, police et al.
>>If I may,
>>1. Maybe the media could have given the tapes to the
police so that they
could catch the culprits (which they have done).
>>2. Maybe they could have given a detailed write up
instead of the photograph
or video.
>>3. Maybe they could have given the girl a piece of
cloth to cover her
modesty instead of a black strip on the photo or video
(I presume they were
Eye Witnesses).
>>4. Maybe they could have resisted the hooligans and
saved the girl from
getting stripped instead of shooting pictures (If I am
not wrong they did
not shoot pictures of the person who gave the girl a
piece of cloth to cover
her modesty).
>>5. Maybe they could have used their pens to condemn
the incident.
>>Uncovering the truth is of course their duty but is
it not their duty to
save a girl from getting stripped in the first place.
Will they (the
>>photographers) go and testify against the molestors
in the court? If it is
their duty to uncover the truth? Can you give us
assurance that they will be
>>present in the court to ensure punishment to the
molestors? Or is it that
their duty finishes as soon as they click with zoom
lenses from safe
>>distances and publish the pictures?
