A few years ago, Ashu had a high-paying corporate job in London, earning millions. Saurav was writing about the country’s legal system and living a great life. Both had successful careers, financial security and every reason to continue living the lives they had built for themselves. But they chose to give it all up in the hope of making this country a better place. They had absolutely no reason to leave behind their comfortable lives, take to the streets, face uncertainty and eventually end up in jail. Yet they did. What I admire most about these two is that despite coming from privileged backgrounds, they chose to fight for those who aren’t as fortunate. They could have easily looked the other way, enjoyed their lives and never bothered about the struggles of people they had never even met. Nobody asked them to make these sacrifices. Nobody expected them to. But they did, because they genuinely care about people beyond themselves. And to me, that is the greatest quality a human being can have. To stand up for people you don’t know, to fight battles that aren’t your own, and to risk everything you have so that someone else might have a better life. That’s the kind of people Ashu and Saurav are.

National Commission for Women has taken suo motu cognizance of reports regarding the publication of allegedly defamatory content by a News linking folk singer Ms. Neha Singh Rathore to an alleged sex racket. Following public criticism, the news network reportedly acknowledged that the report was factually incorrect and issued an apology. The NCW Chairperson, Smt. Vijaya Rahatkar, has asked the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting to direct the concerned regulatory bodies, such as the Press Council of India; administrative bodies, such as the Electronic Media Monitoring Centre (EMMC); and self-regulatory bodies of the media industry, such as the News Broadcasters and Digital Association (NBDA) and the Digital Publishers Content Grievance Council (DPCGC), to ensure immediate and time-bound action under the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021. An Action Taken Report (ATR) has been sought within 15 days. The Commission has called for safeguards against gender-based character assassination and digital harassment against women. Media freedom must be exercised responsibly, with due regard for factual accuracy, women’s dignity, privacy and reputation. @MIB_India #suomotu #ncwindia #rashtriyamahilaaayog
