“In peace prepare for war, in war prepare for peace. The art of war is of vital importance to the state. It is matter of life and death, a road either to safety or to ruin. Hence under no circumstances can it be neglected.” | |

स्वातंत्र्यदेवीची विनवणी - कुसुमाग्रज
मीच विनविते हात जोडूनी वाट वाकडी धरू नका ॥
सूर्यकुलाचा दिव्य वारसा प्रिय पुत्रांनो तुम्हा मिळे ।
काळोखाचे करून पूजन घुबडांचे व्रत करू नका ॥
अज्ञानाच्या गळ्यात माळा अभिमानाच्या घालू नका ।
अंध प्रथांच्या कुजट कोठारी दिवाभीतासम दडू नका ॥
जुनाट पाने गळून पालवी नवी फुटे हे ध्यानी धरा ।
एकविसावे शतक समोरी सोळाव्यास्तव रडू नका ॥
वेतन खाऊन काम टाळणे हा देशाचा द्रोह असे ।
करतील दुसरे, बघतील तिसरे असे सांगुनी सुटू नका ॥
जनसेवेस्तव असे कचेरी ती डाकूंची नसे गुहा ।
मेजाखालून, मेजावरतून द्रव्य कुणाचे लुटू नका ॥
बोथट पुतळे पथापथावर ही थोरांची विटंबना ।
कणभर त्यांचा मार्ग अनुसरा, वांझ गोडवे गाऊ नका ॥
सत्ता तारक सुधा असे पण सुराही मादक सहज बने ।
करीन मंदिरी मी मदिरालय अशी प्रतिज्ञा घेऊ नका ॥
प्रकाश पेरा अपुल्या भवती दिवा दिव्याने पेटतसे ।
इथे भ्रष्टता, तिथे नष्टता, शंखच पोकळ फुंकू नका ॥
पाप कृपणता, पुण्य सदयता, संतवाक्य हे सदा स्मरा ।
भलेपणाचे कार्य उगवता कुठे तयावर भुंकू नका

POLITICAL IMAGE AND PERFORMANCE

The importance of image in contemporary political communication is, nonetheless, an occasion of much concern. It is often expressed that political style is now almost as important as political substance and that political success is dependent more on media management than that on policy wisdom. Political leaders and public figures conscious of their public image and performative powers, have always cultivated images for public consumption. Here we can take an example of Nehru with his peculiar red rose and image or Indira Gandhi throwing garlands in public those were given to her. The media image has a backdrop of constructed media image by the construction of ‘self’. It is essential that that individual is the by-product of his own intelligence and initiative.
The contemporary public life has expressed concerns about this constructed image of the politicians by the media. Also there is a growing tendency to construct the political events as major media events with its live coverage. It so much becomes an event that the concerned policy is squeezed out of the news and the constructed image prevails in the public mind. A politician may receive media coaching and construct a media image at odds with their everyday self, but more importantly the media image is the necessary feature for their communicative powers. This media image does not merely depend upon the superficialities of that person but it includes the personality and character of an individual and their ability to connect with the masses emotionally.

World Press Freedom Day
World Press Freedom Day is celebrated every year on 3rd May worldwide. It is an opportunity to celebrate the fundamental principles of press freedom; to evaluate press freedom, to defend the media from attacks on their independence and to pay tribute to journalists who have lost their lives in the line of duty.
The United Nations General Assembly proclaimed World Press Freedom Day in 1993, following a recommendation adopted at the twenty-sixth session of UNESCO’s General Conference in 1991.
As they investigate sensitive issues, unveil disturbing truths and question policies, journalists find themselves in the firing line of those directly or indirectly exposed by their reports.
Facing harassment, threats of violence and physical retaliation, journalists across the world continue to dig out troubling facts, challenge the status quo and expose those who commit crimes. Day after day, journalists investigate and file reports on issues they know they could be sued or killed for. Many pay the price. On World Press Freedom Day, let us pay tribute to all those who have lost their lives for bringing us closer to the Truth.
