This artical is not about Salman Rushdie. It is about the responsibilities and duties of the three organs of the democracy towards its people.
The four most important organ in a democracy are 1.Government 2. Opposition 3. People and 4. Media. The Media is the sentinel of the people. Responsible Media is most vital for a democracy. In our country all four organ are failed.The government is not taking any kind of stand on Salman Rushdie, the opposition is only interested in political mileage, people reacts without thinking and the Media is only interested in sensationalism and TRP. at net result is that a vilified non-intity like Salman Rushdie has now become a big hero.Salman Rushdie last did anything significant 25 years back.
Salman Rushdie is anly PIO ( personal of Indian origin). He is the British citizen,we no need to get obsessed with him. The more important issues facing the country and we should concentrate on them.
Salman Rushdie Challanged Indian government :After even his video address to the Jaipur Literary Festival was cancelled, writer Salman Rushdie,in an exclusive interview to NDTV'S Barkha Dutt,says he is coming to India and the politician will just have to learn to deal with it.
I watched that NDTV and Barkha Dutt is behaving like a paid agent of Salman Rushdie. Barkha Dutt statement is against India and against government.
My doubt is based on following reason :( freedom to speech )
1.Barkha Dutt interviewed Salman Rushdie.
2.When video telecast was cancelled in JLF then Barkha was
furious on stage.
3. Barkha statements was and is in against government.
4.Salman Rushdie was tweetering about his interview with NDTV.
5.Barkha Dutt was providing all local activities to Salman
Rushdie through tweeter.
6.NDTV also tweeted to Salamn Rushdie about interview timing.
7.Salaman Rushdie re-tweeted NDTV tweets.
8.The content all the interview is against the Indian government.
9.Everything excepting the main issue has been discussed in the
interview.
10. Barkha Butt was intentionally targeting Rajiv Gandhi.
11. Barkha was trying to make connectivity between Rajiv Gandhi
and present government.
and present government.
12. Barkha was asking un-relevant question about congress govt.
13. In her interview, I observed that she insulted Indian govt
and Indian people.
and Indian people.
14. During her question she raised UP election's question.
15. Barkha tweeted she does not need govt. permission to take
interview like she was challenging govt.
16. Salman Rushdie deleted all tweets after replying.
17. During the interview Barkha and Salman were targeting govt.
Due to All these above reason I compelled to think that Barkha Dutt is behaving like a paid agent of Salman Rushdie and NDTV is most interested to increase their TRP.
I feel that Indian and Indian people were insulted in interview.
I was replied and it was deleted by Salman Rushdie.
You can see below all tweets by Barkha Dutt, Salman Rushdie and by self.

so shameful. video link that i was meant to moderate with@SalmanRushdie is off on advise of police. protestors on grounds & many threats
Fingers crossed for an honest, peaceful and as always fascinating conversation with @SalmanRushdie in about 15 mins at #JLF
Just dont follow. What possible grounds are there- legally, morally, politically to stop @SalmanRushdie video link at #JLF
Waiting for final final police go ahead on @SalmanRushdie video link that I am slated to moderate at #JLF at 3.45
In 1988 post ban @SalmanRushdie wrote an open letter to Rajiv Gandhi: "What sort of India do you want to govern". Tragic repeat of history
Sahmat invite to @SalmanRushdie to give talk in front of Husain exhibit is a good test of our freedom of speech commitment sans bias
I remember @SalmanRushdie being outspoken in criticism of how India had failed to protect Husain. Today the govt failed to protect Salman
