"Media role added sheen to Pushkarams"

Pushkaram glory brought to fore


Yes, media reports leave a deep impact on the society. It is based on these reports that a large section of the society, especially the common man, takes a decision about participation or non-participation in such public events.

For example, the mega religious event marked by a series of other programmes on the sidelines like exhibitions, cultural programmes, literary programmes, spcial offers and other exciting events lured huge crowds.

I am sure a section of the pilgrims who saw themselves participating in the holy event comprised those whose decision to visit the place was based on newspaper reports and the daily programmes on Pushkarams telecast by various TV channels. Media, in a way, encouraged a large section to be part of Pushkarams by bringing to the fore its significance in all its grandeur.

K. Ramya,
Sri Chaitanya Junior Mahila Kalasala,
