Journalist booked for roti-salt midday meal video gets clean chit?
In a recent development, the journalist who was booked for releasing a video showing children being served roti and salt for their midday meal has been exonerated. It was a huge relief as the reporter was initially penalized for exposing the grim reality of the midday meal scheme in certain regions. The video had sparked widespread outrage, leading to scrutiny of the government's midday meal program. However, the vindication has once again highlighted the importance of free and fair journalism. It's a clear reminder that truth-telling should never be penalized, no matter how inconvenient the truth may be for some.
