The right of Expression and assembly is enshrined in the Indian constitution but when it comes in to the practical is all in the leaves of book. A man who is known AS "Journalist" who expresses his views and espouses the cause of community or the masses is threatened for his life or imprisonment if he writes anything against the government as i could observe it in Indian Administered Kashmir as a Photojournalist.
I am a photojournalist i can not express my views and observations through my writings but my pictures gives the entire look of the scene and perhaps the picture is self explanatory of the situation.
I and 15 other colleagues of mine was roughed up by the Indian troops and even on many occasions i was threatened for the dire consequences perhaps at the behest of the law makers
In the recent during the turmoil of the Kashmir valley the local channels have been banned for revealing the truth since than district magistrate has banned them from telecasting the news and current affairs on the other hand at the same time the Jammu (winter Capital of Kashmir) agitation spare headed by the BJP (communal Hindu Fanatics) have every right to wield their swords and brandish their fire arms to threaten the lives of the particular community. The programes in the Jammu have the patronage of the Indian Government to say anything and to telecast all the events through local channels but nothing refrains them from provoking and no question of ban. The slogan of the secularism of the constitution is perhaps just a say.
The curfew was imposed in Jammu and Indian army was deployed to control the frenzy mob and at many places the Kashmiri drivers were beaten to pulp and two deaths claimed the violence under the nose of Indian troops. Should i call it democracy, Secularism Mobocracy or any other name? The Journalism is Kashmir is at perils and we can not freely express our views or expressions as most of the newspapers of Indian Administered Kashmir do not circulate their papers for the last one week the reason is best known to the authorities.
