Violent protestors "just demanding" : CBCNN

It is instructive to compare the coverage by CBCNN on Nandigram and this issue. Inspite of strong evidence of mishandling by CPM, CBCNN completely absolved  CPM and put the blame on "Opposition". In this case of reservation for Gujjars, the State leadership has little to do with it because the authority lies with the Center. But CBCNN goes beyond its journalistic stipulation and passes a verdict to "embarrass" BJP.

Tuesday's firing in Dausa, which claimed 13 lives, has caused an embarrassment to the Bharatiya Janata Party's leadership as the protesting Gujjars were just demanding implementation of a promise made during the 2003 Rajasthan Assembly elections.
