News flows like wildfire, Reporters outside covering the case
Actuality is falsified, Justice as always late
-Asher Graves
The recent attack in Pahalgam, India, left a gaping hole—28 innocent civilians, tourists, lost their lives. What added to the pain was watching media outlets immediately interview the victims and their families. I understand the need for information, but when justice hasn’t yet been served, why force people to relive their trauma on camera?
Can a person not even grieve without becoming a headline? Is that what news is for now?
The Indian government is trying its best, but no effort can replace the loss. And no justice can undo what’s already been taken.
