Role of media
The role of some TV channels of both countries was interesting in this whole matter. The role of the media is to present the correct information and accurate perspective so that rumors do not spread. But the television channels of both countries were in frenzy. Some Indian channels were talking about erasing the nomination of Pakistan. They were misleading the country by giving false information. The same situation was with Pakistani TV channels. However, several newspapers in India made accurate reporting and made the readers aware of the real situation.
Learn by mistake
The channels of the two countries were doing injustice to their audience and profession by giving false news of heavy losses to each other country. They forgot that their job is to give the right information to the public and put the right perspective in front of them. Overall, his role was to create an atmosphere of extreme nationalist frenzy and to incite communal sentiments. But this did not happen suddenly. This was the conclusion of the route on which he had been running for decades. It is also difficult to say that they will learn lessons from their mistake and will not do so again.
Government took charge
The attitude of the Government of India was liberal. The Ministry of External Affairs and the Army organized regular press briefing to prevent misinformation from spreading. On May 7, Foreign Secretary Vikram Egypt said, ‘India has exercised its right to respond, stop and resist them. This action is non-disconnected, proportional, non-enlightened and full of responsibility. It aims to destroy the infrastructure of terrorism and inactivate the potential terrorists sent to India.
Commendable work
On 9 May, the Foreign Secretary also exposed the wrong information being spread by the Pakistani Army and the government through its TV channels. If an Indian channel made a mistake, it was also rectified by the Ministry of External Affairs. The fear of aggressive and misleading information of TV channels was so much that the Press Information Bureau had to make milk and water water with many news. Some private enterprises have also done this work well, for which they should be appreciated.
Public paid the price
In this whole atmosphere, these channels also forgot what is going on on the people living near the Indian border in Pakistan’s firing. Many people were asked to vacate the house, but they did not know where to go. These included pregnant women, injured children and elderly, for whom medical emergency could occur at any time. He was being attacked with a drone amid blackouts and he was praying to protect his life.
Competition for loan
The struggle between India and Pakistan is now over. Politics has started in both countries on this. Governments have started trying to cut the electoral crop by declaring themselves victorious. In Pakistan, where the government does not run the army, the army seems to be successful in increasing its scope through false and misleading news. While all political parties were united during the struggle in India, now politics has started between the ruling party and the opposition.
