​Hyderabad: City Police Commissioner Anjani Kumar advised the journalists to work with spirit and honesty while covering the ensuing Assembly elections in the State. Delivering the keynote address at the day long workshop on ‘Election Reporting’ organised under the aegis of Telangana Urdu Working Journalists’ Federation (TUWJF) and Indian News Network (INN) here on Saturday, the Police Commissioner advised the journalists to grab the opportunity by sailing on the path of truth and always be honest in fulfilling their responsibilities as a watch dog of democracy. It needs alertness, ability and maturity to respond immediately. One should create internal awareness of the society, he said.
In this digital era to control everything and bring it under the clutches of law is a huge task, he said. “One lakh new emails are created every day. How to control and keep an eye on them is a big challenge. In prevailing circumstances, responsibility of journalists and other departments has increased. Society at cross roads needs directions. Journalists have to play a key role and accept responsibility to direct the society to move in the right path. You should always be aware that a small mistake of yours will play havoc and cannot be rectified,” he told the gathering.
Earlier, in his inaugural address, Indian Journalists Union (IJU) president D Amar asked journalists to take note of changing trends in politics wherein individuals were getting more importance than their party manifesto. TUWJF Chief and Press Council of India member M A Majid said that the Federation has organised the workshop to train the Urdu journalists in reporting the next elections in a better manner.
INN Editor Shaik Ahmed Ali gave a power-point presentation on ‘Reporting Elections - Our Responsibilities’ wherein he advised journalists to cover the elections in a comprehensive, unique and planned manner. The large gathering of journalists from across the Telangana State was also addressed by Urdu Academy Chairman Moulana Rahimuddin Ansari, Urdu Academy Director Prof S A Shukoor, PIB Additional Director General TVK Reddy, TUWJF Advisor Faiz Mohammed Asghar, Eminent Journalists Mir Ayub Ali Khan, F M Saleem, Habeeb Ali Al Jeelani, Syed Ghouse Mohiuddin, Shaik Riyaz Ahmed and others also spoke.
