Hindi blogging is getting bold to bolder. That is what the spirit of blogging is. This time it is Top TV journalist Punya Prasun Bajpai. the whole story goes like it- Bajpai wrote a story on his blog, story tries to problematize the most problematic :) Terrorism what else. Taking Jamia Nagar incident and analysing the irony of residents there. What Prasun erred was that he took no position on encounter itself and kind of swept the incident under carpet kind of suggesting that encounter might not be a genuine one.
That obviously did not went well with other Hindi bloggers. Had it been two years hence, bloggers might have ‘requested’ Prasun to look at the other picture but here the beaming Hindi bloggers tries to look at the Prasun eye to eye and dare him on every front. A counter post by Viswa Samay and really outspoken comments says a lot.
Rather than this or that position on the issue what interests me is the fact that Hindi blogging is no more a shying kid playing junior to other forms of media. Here the common bloggers are taking the big one head on..I’m luving it.
