This is in reference to a report i had watched on television the other day. The reporter out here happened to be an aspiring journalist, Shamit Ghosh. He was a resident of pune and had done some course from Rai University before it shut shop. He was about 25 years of age and had created a report which was of a serious nature.
He happened to visit a small graveyard. On his visit out there, he happened to see something that would make one sick. There were dead bodies of humans dispersed around, with dogs and other creatures enjoying a good meal. On further investigation he found out that there was hardly any place for burying the dead, and hence after a period of three months the bodies that were earlier cremated were removed out. It did not matter if they were decomposed or not. He had captured the images on camera and CNN IBN broadcasted this report without any editing.
This report was shown during the 9 P.M news and i happened to be having dinner. Watching mutilated bodies being eaten by dogs was not something i expected. The people around that graveyard had no problems with what was happening in their neighborhood. It made me uncomfortable. Is this the way we treat our dead.
How would we react, if we had such incidents happening in our neighborhood. What happened out in this case is definetly not done. Kudos to this lad for bringing out such a story. His report has definetly made us something to "grave" (Oops.........sorry), Something to"think" about.
