When it comes to Hindu bashing the "Pseudo Secular" Indian and Western Media
are leading in their attack on Hinduism. In their concerted efforts to
malign India systematically they even forget the basic ethos of unbiased
journalism.
Read how BBC described the Godhra (Gujrat, India) Train tragedy on March 16,
2002
"Hundreds of people have died in India in the past two weeks after
Muslim activists
attacked a train carrying
Hindu militants
back from Ayodhya."
Who were the Activists according to BBC correspondent Mike Donkin, in
Delhi?
2000-strong
mob of Muslims that attacked three packed coaches of the train with stones,
swords and crowbars. They broke open the window grills of one compartment,
with the crowbars and hurled petrol bombs and inflammable chemicals inside.
As flames engulfed the coach, the mob prevented a fire tender from reaching
the train.
Who were the Militants according to BBC correspondent?
57 Hindus that were forcibly trapped in a coach and burnt alive and charred
to death. They included 25 women (militants??)
and 14 children (militants??)
and some infant (militants??)
who did not have anything to save them form this ghastly massacre.
Most of the western media used the term
"Hindu Militants"
for these victims who lost their lives. This was like calling "Killers the
activists" and "Victims the Militants". It would have been appropriate if
they had reported
"19 Moslem
activists
hijacked the planes in US and killed
5000 militants
in World Trade Center"
This was extremely unacceptable and
'IndiaCause'
took strong objection to these terms. We lodged a complaint with BBC. This
was backed by emails of numerous supporters. We received email from BBC "We
recognise that the use of the words referred to in your e-mail was Not
appropriate. Accordingly, we have changed the sentence concerned." - BBC

The earlier BBC report stated
"Muslim
activists
attacked a train carrying
Hindu militants
back from Ayodhya."
BBC corrected it to:
Since then BBC Online and BBC TV News are using
"Hindu Activists"
in their reports.
Thanks to all our supporters for showing organized E-Activism in this
cause.
This is a victory of the CyberActivism shown by
IndiaCause members
This success story was reported by Hinduism
Today & Gujarat Samachar
