Today I am very proud that ‘District Recognized Journalist Committee’ is celebrating its first foundation day. Friends, the pen and the Constitution use the same ink. The day journalists get scared, democracy will also get scared. The day the journalist is sold, the government will also be sold.

I am the president of a political party. Every day I am criticized as well as praised. But I never told any journalist, ‘Don’t write against me’. Because I know – the mirror may break, but the truth does not. Today, journalist friends are the most troubled. They are harassed in the name of recognition, pressurized in the name of advertising, and threatened for writing the truth. This is the promise of Bharatiya Jan Samaj Party. We stand shoulder to shoulder with the journalists. Finally, hearty congratulations to all the officials of the committee. Your first year is the year of foundation, next year will be the year of revolution. Jai Hind, Jai Constitution, Jai Journalism. Thank you.” Committee Chairman Harish Tiwari presiding over the program.

We will make the organization the strongest journalist organization in the state.” Committee General Secretary Ashish Tiwari conducted an impressive stage. Program coordinator Rajendra Gupta welcomed all the guests and honored them by presenting mementos and corsets.
