Do we think?

One can accept that this sting operation is to divert attention from Natwar to something else, but look at it objectively. These types of things are not unreal. These are coming to surface. It is learnt that Aniruddh Bahal in contact with channel for couple of months. Has the channel revealed all facts. There might be some facts deleted. Or some other journalist might have CDs hotter than these. we are an opaque society, where every information or leak should be tested from different angles. What is the purpose behind it? Whose purpose? Is there anybody interested in peoples cause.Certainly there are, but they are weak. They have no support, because people are weak. They are not real drivers of this democracy. They can be misinformed. We should crate structures to varify informations. We need good social scintists, journalists, their institutions etc. People can be emotionally exploited with religion, cast, region, language basis. Vibrant democracies function under the guidance of people. But this human element should be qulitatively high.

Now the sting operation. Sure we should not accept whatever is shown. Tapes can be doctored. Or editing can change the meaning. Some cuts change the whole idea. Privacy and the public good are not two diverse values. We can accept infringement of values if the outcome is for the public good. Then who is Aniruddh Bahal, why he is in this trade, whether he is a sincere journalist, or He want to rise to heights in seconds? There are thusands of questions. Even jobs done with evil intentions help society by bringing out new informations. We are one of the biggest democracies. Such issue give us chance to discuss and be informed. It makes us mature.
