Media personnel were there to cover a story about the damaged portion of a road, and when DC Reasi reached there, she used callous words against the media. It’s a common fact that officers only believe in grinding their own axes and love to use the media for their own interests, and when that interest is over, they love to spit malice against the same media people. The media has played a big role in highlighting developmental issues in addition to playing a healthy role for the nation, but a few arrogant politicians and officers have time and again attacked the media with their arrogant and irresponsible statements. Reacting to this unfortunate development, a prominent face of Jammu media told “POONCH TODAY”, “Madam ko yeh samajna chaiye ki media achar nikalta hai, leta nahi hai.” He added, “The media fraternity should come forward and condemn this irresponsible statement of DC Reasi, who seems to be shouting in the air without any base.” Another reporter, pleading anonymity, said, “LG J&K, Union Information Minister, and Chairman Press Council of India should intervene as targeting media persons by officers and politicians has become a fashion and this practice needs to be stopped at the earliest.” Meanwhile, the media fraternity has condemned this incident and demanded action from the government against DC Reasi for his unkind behavior toward the media.
