Pawan and left parties padayatra yesterday was a grand success as per those parties and media as thousands of people joined the event at Vijayawada. However, the coverage to this padayatra has been discussion point.
Yesterday, during the event also most of the media channels did not give LIVE and AP24X7 channel criticized other channels for being partial and not covering Pawan’s yatra completely ( https://www.telugu360.com/ap24x7-criticizes-channels-regarding-coverage-pawans-yatra/ ). Now, if we see the coverage in today’s dailies, Sakshi paper’s coverage again became a discussion point. While main and front pags Eenadu, Andhrajyothy covered the agitations of all 3 parties – TDP, YSRCP and Janasena-left group, Sakshi dedicated its front page only to Jagan and YSRCP’s agitation.
So, Pawan’s yatra got coverage in a very small article in page 13 and nowhere else it got any mention. Compared to the coverage Sakshi gave to TDP or Janasensena demonstrations, the coverage for Jagan in Eenadu and Andhra Jyothy is much better. Of course, people are now so matured and able to understand the ground realities regardless of the coverage given to the events in news papers.
