Irresponsible talk

Published on: 

Sir — Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao has said that he wants to wring the necks of journalists and bury them. Even Napoleon Bonaparte feared the fourth estate more than he did the cannons.

It is the media that pinpoints wrongdoing of Governments. There is no point in the Telangana Chief Minister threatening the Press because it will not be cowed down. Even during the Emergency, a section of the media had stood up against Indira Gandhi and her regime. Mr Rao must keep a check on his utterances and concentrate on the governance of his new State.
