SRINAGAR : Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Monday took to Twitter and blamed the media for singing government tune while the country was facing a crisis of sorts vis-a-vis Kashmir situation.
Akhilesh blames media for heaping praise on someone who is engaged in Pad Prakshalan (Washing someone’s feet in respect) and ignoring issues like the problems in Kashmir, Assam hooch tragedy where the death toll reached 123 and the violence in Arunachal Pradesh over Permanent Residency Certificate issue.
Akhilesh, however, did not specify how the media was not covering the Kashmir issue. After the attack on CRPF men in Pulwama on February 14, various media outlets have covered each and every action in Kashmir. In fact, the national media, as well as regional media, widely reported the Pulwama attack and its aftermath.
PM Narendra Modi on Sunday washed the feet of five sanitary workers and then wiped them dry to show gratitude for their service. (PTK)
