An Indian got up in the morning and started reading the newspaper.
During the day, this person meets a friend and asks why is it that we Indians always have to read a negative story from Kashmir?
The news article has portrayed the incident in the way that the militant killed was a poor man and son of a school headmaster who had picked up the gun to raise his voice against the oppression of Indian government.
This made the person feel all the more guilty of his own government.
In the case above, an interesting point to note is that the reportage around Kashmir has been such that it paints the Indian government and Indian armed forces in a negative light.
The onslaught of negative reportage is such that it doesn’t leave an average Indian (as seen in the case above) even to ponder what should be the nation’s response to a radicalised, trained and motivated gun-wielding terrorist who is ready to kill the innocent people.
