In a shocking incident from Madhya Pradesh, a journalist who simply asked,
“Why are students playing during class hours? was met not with an answer but with a slap and the threat, “Hum chappal marenge!”
When those meant to educate resort to aggression, and when truth-seekers are punished for questioning
what lesson are we really teaching the next generation?
Journalism is not an act of defiance it is a pillar of democracy.
Every question asked in the public interest deserves respect, not rage.
Let’s stand for those who speak truth to power.
Let’s remind the world
Violence silences individuals, but never the truth.
