here were several headlines that kept clinching the 'Breaking News' section of the news channel, this week. some of them were:

  • Apollo Mission - 40years Thereafter
  • Kargil War - 10 years of Glory and emphatic win over the PAK
  • Sach Ka Sammna - A show to unveil the truth from one's personality.
Apollo Mission was undoubtedly a landmark, that helped scientists to understand the surface of Moon , the atmosphere that existed there and many other calculus about moon. Neil Armstrong and Edwin E. Aldrin were titled 'First Man to step on Moon'. The footage of their landing was once again broadcasted all over the world.

Michael Jackson 's death continues to be a mystery. All the news channels keep bringing in 'Sansani-Kesh Khulasa' regarding his death each day. I wonder how much intimate connection does they have.But it's obvious to say, these news channels have to jus sell their crap in order to grasp TRP for them.

Saach Ka Sammna- Indian clone of 'Moment Of Truth' , a colombian reality show, gained all the lime light. Vinod Kambli's honest answers made the headlines spree. Breakage of Sachin's and Vinods friendship were aired continuously for several days. What has public got to do with their breakage?But i guess the game shows' popularity is soley due to these confessions.

Kargil War '99: A decade after, there are over 25,000 soldiers take charge over the valley to prevent any other intrusion . A full coverage on the soldiers life there is highlighted. How the soldiers back in 1999 faced the intruders, is worth saluting. I too have an intimate connection with the war of Kargil. I was only 10 when one of my friend's father was right up there fighting at Kargil. We all used to anxiously wait for the Warden at the boarding school to give us the updates on the war. Those were the times of encouragement and pride that we had at Sherwood.
I salute the bravery of every soldier at the frontier serving the nation.

Cheers
Rohit
