Rahul Gandhi Lashes Out at Media for Neglecting Pressing Issues Of Common People

Date:

NEW DELHI — Congress MP and Leader of Opposition in the Lok Sabha, Rahul Gandhi, on Monday once again took an aim at the media, and accused the fourth pillar of democracy of “turning a blind eye to the pressing issues” faced by common people and farmers. 

Addressing a gathering at an event in Madhya Pradesh’s Mhow, the birthplace of Baba Saheb Ambedkar, the former Congress president came heavily down on the media for allegedly being under the control of certain business groups, which he claims has led to ‘zero focus on the real issues’ affecting India’s common citizens.

Rahul Gandhi’s harsh words towards the media are not new. It has been seen how Rahul Gandhi has frequently expressed concern with how the media has been covering the real issues on ground over the years.

The Gandhi’s has often accused the media of being “biased and catering to the interests of big business conglomerates”.

Rahul argues that coverage of issues that matter to the common people, such as farmer’s woes or unemployment, is often sidelined for “other political narratives”.–IANS
