Politics is the easiest and most interesting business ever known to me. As far as what I have learnt the basic qualification to become a politician is to know how to ‘TWIST’ the statements and how to ask questions.

I was familiar with only 2 major parties each of the state and central level for quiet a long time, though I am aware of few of the other parties now. Each party has a tv channel to support and there exists the same competition, fight would be the right word, between the channels. It is mostly one of the two parties governing and the leaders own a tv channel.

THE POLITICAL CYCLE AND THE CAMERA ANGLE

Party 1 rules:
There exists a serious problem and the people always blame the governing party, say party 1.

ROLE OF OP. PARTY’S (2)CHANNEL:
The party 2’s channel tries blowing up the issue and feeding the cameras of their channel with hot news. The leader of the opposition party starts giving strong comments against the ruling party speaks as though on the people’s side and fighting for people.

ROLE OF RULING PARTY’S (1)CHANNEL:
Show the same problem’s prevalence in the previous government (when party 2 ruled) and tries to show that the problem is far better now (which is mostly untrue). Sometimes they go to the extent of claiming the telecast to be directed and shot by the creative heads of the opposition party. (This is sometimes true).

Finally what is to be noted is that the problem prevails and there is nobody who is interested in finding a solution for it. Sometimes even the accidental events are blamed on the ruling party and it becomes a topic for the next TV conflict.Again there comes an election, say the government is changed, party 2 forms the government.

PARTY 2 RULES

 ROLE OF PARTY 2’S CHANNEL: (hell->heaven)
 This channel will make you start wondering. How? They’ll show the same news in a different version from the next day they form the government. Till yesterday the channel might have shown the state as a poor, unhealthy, lawless, order less…( the list goes on ) state, but today (God alone knows how!) the state might have changed into a heaven (in their channel). But we must appreciate this. They don’t forget to give a picture as thought the state was a hell in the previous government.

ROLE OF PARTY 1’S CHANNEL: (heaven->hell)
 This channel telecast the same new and the same incident in a different version. I don’t understand how a village’s need, city’s problem, peoples cry which prevailed so long was not noticed by this channel when party 1 was governing. Suddenly do they come to know about this and start running behind the tears with the cameras? Unanswered right?

WHAT WE CAN FIGHT FOR:
The pitiable condition is when people pass on comments saying that news slots are better directed then serials. What we people can do being true citizens?? Change this political scenario? Surely not! We can at least fight for the payment increase of the people who act in TV news and news channels (as it seems so natural).
