Actually that is not a fact. Part of the reason this never gets fixed is people like you minimising the issue & distracting from it. The reason you don't care about kids breathing poison is the utter uselessness of your existence & little potential of any upside here on.

Why doesn’t the govt do some REAL work to benefit citizens? Such as fixing the public health emergency of catastrophic air pollution in Delhi/NCR? Changing place names, having a debate on Vande Mataram etc benefit NO ONE. (And make the govt look lazy and foolish)

The Media Foundation Why does Ambani own so many channels, why did Adani scramble to own the last channel standing and now wants to own newspapers like the Hindu? So this isn't about journalists as much as the media owners: Poornima Joshi #TMFdialogues

The Media Foundation Poornima Joshi If you're blaming corporate ownership of media.. the corporate owned media stood up to Trump 1.0. They've done it in India, in precious regimes. So what has changed? Kamal Malhotra, ex-UN. #TMFdialogues on Media: Kingmaker or Bystander?

In newsrooms, a terrible deskilling has taken place. A few years of technical training like a plumber, no analyticsl thinking. If you're good looking you become an anchor, you aren't good looking you become a crime reporter or municipal reporter: veteran journalist Bharat

Advaniji had said, when asked to bend during the Emergency, the media crawled. Today, I see the media being asked to bend and instantly doing sashtang namaskar: Rajdeep Sardesai

Is the media still a force in the elections? "Of course it is," says @PoornimaJoshi72, "which is why the ruling party works so hard controlling it."

We are in a pollution hell right now with AQI crossing 400 again in national capital. Not even Odd Even imposed and construction continues and garbage is burnt. Not a thing that may actually solve the problem is tried. Oh but we will rename MNREGA after debating Vande Mataram.
