Diverting the nation’s attention. Pakistani Media

Yet the nizam-e-adl wasn’t enforced and the media of Pakistan was strongly supporting the law by declaring it the will of the people of SWAT and Malakand agency and supported the nizam-e-adl. The stance of the NWFP government was over confident at that moment and they were continuously supporting the soofi mohammed as a guarantor and shacked hands with the Taliban’s with a treaty that they wont resist armed force and give up arms after enforcement of Nizam-e-adl. Media was pro these talks and showed a strong support for the treaty between government of Pakistan and a banned outfit TTP.

But the situation became critical when the TTP (Tahreek-e-Taliban Pakistan) refused to give up arms and continued their strategy for capturing as much as land in the name of nizam-e-adl. The treaty became broken and Taliban stepped out of malakand and killed people and challenged the writ of the government and the whole nation asked for an operation against Taliban’s.

The Armed forces Pakistan approach’s the insurgence areas of NWFP affected by Taliban and started an operation against them and whole nation supported this act by the armed forces against Taliban’s. According to the sources above 700 miscreants got killed in the operation and millions of people migrated from swat to different save areas of NWFP.As a common outcome of every operation for the sovereignty of Pakistan.

The United Nations refugee agency UNHCR is airlifting tonnes of additional emergency supplies to northwest Pakistan to help cope with the unfolding humanitarian disaster there The fighting has sparked a civilian exodus from the former tourist destination. In recent days 360,000 people have left their homes and in all about 500,000 are expected to flee, joining about 600,000 people displaced earlier from Swat and other areas . not only from UNHCR the whole nation is supporting the swat effected people and tents is being provided to the people and food and rest of the things as well.

At first the media supported operation against Taliban’s and condemned activities of Taliban’s. But when people get affected of the operation and start migrating from the effected areas of NWFP , first media started asking for aid and help for people of swat but on the other hands condemning the operation under the table. Yellow journalism is being proved and some anchors are portraying it bad bad and bad. Accusing the armed forces for the situation of Muhajir camps and declaring the operation in swat not in favor of the people.

The media is again changing its motive like they changed on Lal Mosque dispute and now again blaming the armed forces for lack or administrative issue’s in muhaijir camps and by criticizing the army showing the whole nation what is really happening there in muhajir camps people are suffering things which is true in fact but this own media yelled when the Taliban’s were coming into other parts of the country and asked the Army to take an immediate action against Taliban this double standard journalism is leading country no where but in turmoil and some yellow journalist are now again diverting the attention of the nation from Taliban’s to the people who got effected of this operation and by doing that they are derailing national spirit of the nation against Taliban’s.
