Explosion at Ernakulam Civil Station

Jump to Comments

I was literally petrified and terrified when I received reports on bomb explosion at Ernakulam Civil Station, immediately I browsed through most of the malayalam news channels. All the channels and news portals were televising detailed description regarding the explosion like the cause for the explosion, medium used etc. But I was greatly relieved when I recognized no human life was harmed. At 10:00 pm I an eminent news channel reporting and offering detailed description about the chemicals that are used for bomb explosion. The channel’s testimony goes like this “usage of an Embedded System can provide an easy control and would result in successful explosion process.” What foolishness is this? I would rather call it as a journalistic stupidity. What are these kinds of news persons trying to convey? By making the above said facts public they are setting simple ways before the terrorists to create demolition and devastation to a large degree. This is similar to a bird that destroys its own nest. If ponder and ponder right we are the sole cause of our insecurity both in national and state level. I kindly plead to the news persons and the media officials to don’t let out such exclusive details through your media. Just provide a flash news citing that a bomb explosion took place but no injuries and some chemicals were found at 4th and 5th floor(don’t mention name of the chemical). In my view this would be healthy for the public.
