Kashmiri Media's Reporting on BJP's Flag Hoisting at Lal Chow

The mood of the people in Kashmir may vary but as is the case elsewhere, the media's grabbed an opportunity to add fuel to the fire with its extremely biased and aggressive reporting. Caught up in his passionate commentary, the anchor in the bellow video actually gets the date wrong as 15th August instead of January 26th.

Its sad to see that the drama and politics over BJP's youth wing's 'Tiranga Yatra' has been so intense in the last few days, Manmohan Singh as is customary, speaking at eleventh hour and reiterating his party's line, while Omar Abdullah going so far as to block and detain top BJP leaders like Sushma Swaraj while they were entering the state; every one of course aware that they all come out shining to their own targeted galleries. The person who benefited the most so far has doubtless been J&K CM Omar Abdullah who by not even allowing some BJP leaders to enter the state has projected himself as the savior of peace to the moderates and as a defender of Kashmiri Azadi to the hard line youth in the state. 

It remains to be seen what will happen tomorrow on 26th Jan, India's 63rd Republic Day at Lal Chowk.
