Naxalism is one of the most burning and talked about issues of our country. Under the guidance of Ms. Nidhi Anand, Group A presented ‘Naxalism’ as per the theme “Regional Resurgences and Media Response” in the 108th session of World Around.
Issues covered: The group presented the origin and growth of Naxalism, the Government’s policy, Media’s response, statistics regarding death and attacks and the general perception about Naxalism. The students effectively covered all the aspects of the issue. In the discussion the main focus was drawn towards the funding aspect of Naxalites. It also raised important points like how government officially banned Naxal movements and the steps taken by government. What role media plays in the regard to poor people and whether it is Pro Government or Pro Naxal were also discussed.
Presentation Style: “How Naxalism Started?” To answer the question there was a dramatic presentation by the team members. The performance gave a brief introduction of the origin of the Naxal move
ments. The audiences were left spellbound after the performance of Vivek Augustine, Binai Toppo, Gargi Parichha, Rosemary Peter, Jack Mohan and Sanoj Singh. Sister Nicy’s narration for the drama was icing on the cake. The group took a brilliant step of interviewing public about the whole naxal factor. The power point presentation ended with a marvellously-made video showing both sides of India: Love, Peace and harmony being on one hand and Terror and Violence on the other hand.
Evaluation: Fr. John Edappilly, Dean of NISCORT, evaluated the whole presentation. Talking about the strengths and weaknesses, he said that planning was well done but the presentation lacked time management. All aspects were covered systematically and a large number of students were involved in explaining the issues.
He suggested to the students that as journalists they must interpret analyze and make an editorial statement on such issues. Being media student, they should get into the real root cause and explore the gravity of the issue. They should also analyze the role of different media. Each individual should develop a Journalistic mind in interpreting as in this way they can answer any curious question posed to them. He congratulated the team members for their excellent performance and concluded the session by declaring it a well-planned, researched and prepared presentation.
