On December 10, Rajdeep Sardesai, editor in chief IBN network tweets.
Reminds me of phrase: Woh Kare to Atyachar… Hum kare to Chamatkar…rough translation (When they do it its outrageous, but when we do it it’s a noble act)
One is used to acidic barbs from Sagarika! but media watch thinks Sagarika has crossed every limit of decency and restrain by speculating if Lord Ram Divine ‘encroacher’ on disputed site.
Dictionary definition of encroacher is
To take another's possessions or rights gradually or stealthily: encroach on a neighbor's land.
Rama occupies a very considerable place in our daily life of India and in the religious history of the world. He is the embodiment of righteousness and is believed to be the incarnation of the solar aspect of Vishnu. Even in death "Ram Nam Satya Hai" (The name of Ram is truth) is commonly chanted while carrying a dead body to the cremation ground in India.
Statement of Sagarika has hurt religious sentiments of millions of Hindus across globe especially during such ‘troubled times’.
Media Watch strongly demand Sagarika and her employer IBN should apologize to the nation.
Sagarika has since deleted this tweet

CNN IBN journalist Sagarika Ghose asks -
jama masjid shooting. wonder who most wants the cwg games to fail? which group would most want to see UPA discredited?
Very intriguing question Indeed. Please reread the question. Question is “which group would most want to see UPA discredited?” NOT India but UPA. Since Sagarika didnot explain what she had in mind while asking this questions. Lets try to speculate -
1. Does Sagarika think some group has done this ghastly act to discredit UPA?
2. Since question is not about discrediting India as a whole, Does it mean it was carriedout by local organization in India?
3. One of first questions every investigative org would ask - who will gain the most by discrediting UPA? Which naturally would be political rival of UPA?\
Questions galore.. Media watch sincerely hope Sagarika would explain to nation what she meant? One donot expect vain words from a senior journalist like her.
