Media lying:Asaram,Togadia,Modi and fifth child’s death…

Asaram Bapu issue:Media’s false stories:Asaram vs Togadia and fifth child’s death

You watched the video above?

In the video, Pravinbhai Togadia, international General secretary of Vishva Hindu Parishad could be seen saying that police should find out who were the ‘forces’ behind Asaram ashram boys deaths. And whoever is there behind the deaths should be strictly punished.

In a tone of appreciation, Mr. Togadia said that Madhya Pradesh police was working in full strength(to find out the forces behind gurukul deaths)

When asked about Asaram Bapu ashram’s Ahmedabad gurukul deaths specifically, Pravinbhai clearly denied to have any specific knowledge about Ahmedabad deaths. In fact he replied to the reporter that the journalists would be knowing much better than him on Ahmedabad gurukul deaths issue.

This conversation in the video above is short, simple and very clear. Pravin Togadia just demanded to find out the forces behind the deaths through police investigation.

Alright, now you please Click over this link and read the article. The article says “Modi government should take action against Asaram: Togadia” in it’s heading.

How untrue is this? Pravinbhai never spoke these words. Then why the author has put these words in his mouth? Thankfully DeshGujarat’s camera was rolling there, otherwise this untruth could make Pravinbhai versus Asaram Bapu or let say Asaram Bapu versus Vishwa Hindu Parishad scenario permanently, a drift between two powerful Hindu forces without reason.

Alright, now read this news report Click over this link. This report was published on 1st of August, 2008 Friday with this heading:’Now, fifth child found dead at an Asaram ashram’. Report narrated:”In yet another case of mystery death, a boy was found dead at Asaram Bapu ashram in Ahmedabad on Friday.” in it’s first paragraph.

Now the real truth is that, there was no fifth death at all in Asaram Bapu’s Ahmedabad ashram. Not on Friday, not on Saturday, any day before or after … Fifth child never died mysteriously in Asaram Bapu’s Ahmedabad ashram. This news was completely bogus. In fact this piece of story created rumors in local area and peace could be disrupted easily.

Deaths of children in Asaram Gugukuls is of course a serious issue. But in Modi bashing and Asaram bashing, Hindu saints bashing and Hindu infrastructure bashing(Gurukuls are Hindu infrastructures in backward and tribal areas) media should not take the path of untruth.
