Readers are not fools


Parvatamma Rajkumar is writing a column for Kannada Prabha. In fact she is not writing.. somebody (Every one knows who is that somebody. He is Jogi) is writing on her behalf. She narrates the story and "somebody" makes the notes. Likewise her column has been appearing in Kannada Prabha for the last eight months. It is known to a common reader.

The editor of Kannada Prabha today (18 April, 2006) carried a page one announcement captioned -Maadari Mahile. He says despite the grief after the demise of Dr.Rajkumar and violence which marred his antima yaatra, she didn't say no to her column. She was not ready to disappoint Kannada Prabha readers and submitted her column.

If you read her column it was the same old stuff she has been telling to all the newspapers and TV channels from the day one of the demise of Dr.Raj.

If she wants to narrate her story thats fine. Instead of describing Parvatamma as Maadari Mahile, appreciate your reporter who could meet her and take down the notes at the hour of grief.

Then we call you a Maadari Sampaadaka
