2311When it comes to defending your country in adverse
circumstances all you need is undying love for your motherland. This is the
example that has been set by an Indian journalist who took on Pakistan Foreign
Minister SM Qureshi right inside Pakistan when Qureshi started speaking ill
about India in a Pakistan Government function. After the journalist informed
about the incident on Twitter (CLICK to read), the tweet has gone viral with thousands of
people liking and writing about the tweet while lakhs have viewed it so far. Indian Mandarins caught up with the journalist Sanjeev
Trivedi as he entered into India on Sunday via Wagha Border through which he
had gone to Lahore to cover the Kartarpur function. Sanjeev is placed as an
Associate Editor with News 24 Tv and was a member of the media team visiting
Pakistan to cover the opening of Kartarpur Corridor. It was last Friday evening recalls Sanjeev, when the Indian
media contingent was taken to the residence of the Governor of Pakistan Punjab
for an interaction. It was an imposing British era building protected by the
Pak Army. The Governor was trying to explain how more Indian religious places
will be opened-up in Pakistan after Kartarpur Corridor. Things were fine until Pak Foreign Minister Qureshi suddenly
dropped in unannounced. As he began to address the Indian media, Qureshi began
to harp on the Kashmir Agenda of the Pak Govt. despite it being a function
arranged on the occasion of the opening of Kartarpur Corridor. The situation
became tense as Qureshi went on and on calling Kashmir as 'Indian Occupied
Kashmir' and abrogation of Art 370 as 'annexation of J&K' by Modi Govt. The Indian journalists were
shell shocked as this was happening in the Governor's House in Lahore and not a
neutral venue. Also this wasn't a press conference. It was then, Sanjeev says
that he decided to intervene and cut short Qureshi's argument - which as the
video posted on the Tweeter shows Qureshi leaving the spot in a huff. When asked if he thought twice before taking on Qureshi as he
was in Lahore i.e right inside Pakistan and that meant being well under the
reach of the ISI and the Pak Army - he said he did not think of anything accept
instantly cutting the slur that Qureshi was attributing to India. Pakistan is
not a normal state and journalist's rights aren't as protected there as in
India but Sanjeev says that the risk of rebutting the Anti-India Pak agenda
from inside Pakistan territory, had to be taken. Indian Mandarins congratulates Sanjeev Trivedi. Fighting for
the honour of the country does not always require Guns and Planes. Duty and
love towards your country is equally effective as weapons. (By Rakesh Ranjan)
