“The worst illiterate is the political illiterate, he doesn’t hear, doesn’t speak, nor participates in the political events. He doesn’t know the cost of life, the price of the bean, of the fish, of the flour, of the rent, of the shoes and of the medicine, all depends on political decisions. The political illiterate is so stupid that he is proud and swells his chest saying that he hates politics. The imbecile doesn’t know that, from his political ignorance is born the prostitute, the abandoned child, and the worst thieves of all, the bad politician, corrupted and flunky of the national and multinational companies.”

― Bertolt Brecht

Here is what happened in Guwahati..

1. In Guwahati, a reporter from a Congress leader owned TV channel & his Youth Cong buddy pick up a fracas with a young girl at a pub

2. They instigate crowds then call their TV channel. 

3. A large number of locals gather and start brutalizing the girl

4. The TV crew arrived and continued filming, at one point removing the locks of the girl from in front of her face for better shots

5. A courageous local daily editor stops and helps the girl, also calls the cops.

6. Upon reaching home, this daily editor is shocked that live footage from the scene still showing the attacker at it and preventing police from taking away the girl.

7. News Live continued to exploit the footage (heavily edited) for several days, NO action is taken by police.

8. Video goes viral. A national outcry starts which leads to arrest of ONLY FOUR of the perps. 

9. Assam Congress whisks away the girl, News Live continues to spread rumors about her being a divorcee etc. 

10. With the girl safely away and a friendly NCW team, the whole incident is sanitized and served in hot tasty proportions palatable for people who have largely lost their conscience and can not digest the truth.
