#main Funny Indian media: Makes mockery of Journalism Kangan, Aug 31:The overnight encounter between Army and militants in North Kashmir’s Preng area of Kangan occurred in the absence of media and no Indian news channel was able to capture the live shots. Soon after the General Commanding Officer, Victor Force concluded his press briefing, some of the reporters working for some top news channels of India requested Army officials to enact a drama so that they could present it as a real encounter. Eyewitnesses told CNS that Army was kind enough to oblige to the repeated requests of these local reporters working for some of the India’s news channels. “Reporters and cameramen of four Indian news channels were taken to a near by willow field adjacent to Wusan Camp of 24 Rashtriya Rifles. The labours who were extracting sand from Nallah Sindh were ordered to leave the place to pave way for Army personnel to fire some shots,” a local reporter said. Reports said that Army kept on firing and cameramen captured those shots from different angles, which finally were aired on these news channels depicted as real encounter. Some of the reporters even presented themselves before camera giving an impression that they are in the middle of the encounter.
