Perceptions: Fresh Takes on Politics, Media, and Everyday Issues
When you land on the Perceptions page you’ll find a mix of opinions that cut through the noise. Each post is written by someone who’s been in the thick of the story – whether it’s a politician’s inner circle, a courtroom drama, or a behind‑the‑scenes look at the news business. The goal? To give you a clear picture of how power, bias, and everyday choices shape what we see and hear.
Politics & Power
One article follows Dhiraj Srivastava, a former Rajasthan SDM who quit his government job to become Priyanka Gandhi’s private secretary. The piece shows how personal networks and regional loyalties still matter in national politics. Another story breaks down Amit Shah’s rise within the BJP, pointing out his grassroots work in Gujarat, his knack for organizing, and the way he built a national network. Both posts illustrate the same idea: political influence often starts with local connections before it explodes onto a bigger stage.
There’s also a look at the Supreme Court’s decision to stay the Chhattisgarh sex‑CD case. The author uses a movie‑like analogy to explain why the court’s pause feels suspenseful, but the real tension lies in how the legal system balances public anger with due process. By comparing the two, readers get a sense of how the judiciary can act as a brake on fast‑moving political fires.
Media & Society
Media bias gets a hard look in a post titled “What is the depth to which media is sold out in India?” The writer lists owners, advertisers, and political pressure as the three main forces that can steer coverage. He also suggests simple checks readers can use – like comparing multiple sources and watching for overly positive language about a sponsor.
Another entry dives into why a Lehren review of “The Bengal Files” disappeared from search results. The author explains how algorithms, pay‑walls, and even deliberate removal can erase stories, then offers a quick checklist to help readers verify if a piece is truly missing or just hidden.
Food safety, legal ethics, and everyday living also get their turn. A short guide warns against eating Indian food left out overnight, explaining how bacteria multiply fast at room temperature. A legal‑scenario piece asks, “What if I did a hit‑and‑run but came back to give information?” and walks through the moral and legal fallout in plain terms.
All these posts share a common thread: they want you to think for yourself. Whether you’re skimming a quick fact‑check or reading a deep dive into a politician’s career, the goal is to give you enough context to form your own opinion.
So, when you explore the Perceptions tag, expect a blend of real‑world examples, no‑nonsense explanations, and a fresh angle on topics that often feel murky. It’s like having a chat with a friend who’s read the file, seen the courtroom, and knows the newsroom gossip – all without any fluff or jargon.
