Jagans Promise Made Journalists Happy!
X
AP CM Chandrababu Naidu is known as a media-friendly leader. Let us assume it to be true for a while. Chandrababu was CM for nine and half years in the past and he has been sitting in the CM chair for the past three and half years.. but what he has done for the journalists? The answer is a 'nothing'.

If someone asks an innocent question how did he get 'media-friendly' tag? His close associates say that Babu doesn't say what he does and he doesn't do what he says. Some people even criticise him that he is not media-friendly but he is media-owner friendly. They say that Chandrababu doesn't care about the people whom he uses as stepping stones in his journey.. and journalists are not an exception.

Some people may question that "Do Journalists really need government help?" There is a general opinion that media persons are smart.. they resort to all sort of activities to earn money. There is some truth in it.. and this kind of things started in the recent past. But still, there are journalists who are truthful to their profession and they lead their life only with the meager salaries given by the management.

The practices are changing in the journalism according to the changes in the society for the last 10-15 years.. but still, there is not much change in the lives of the journalists. That's the reason why there is a demand that government should give them a helping hand.

During the elections, Chandrababu came up with several poll promises and he promised many things to even journalists. But nothing materialised. In such a scenario, Opposition Leader of AP, YS Jaganmohan Reddy made a promise to the journalists. He said that all the eligible journalists in the state will be given land for house construction.. and the pending applications will be considered. He opined that all journalists should have a piece of land for the house.

He said that he will consider the implementing the pension scheme to the journalists. He said that he will do justice to the journalists by considering the journalists' pension schemes implemented by others states.

When some journalists brought to his notice that there are attacks on media representatives.. Jagan said that such things will not be tolerated. Jagan criticised that Chandrababu doesn't care about the attacks on journalists.. instead of taking action on the attackers he will clap hands for them. Whatever be the case, Jagan reacted in a different manner on the issues of journalists in contrast to the AP CM.
