Media should not focus only on rape: Bhujbal

January 26, 2013 22:22

Maharashtra PWD Minister Chhagan Bhujbal today said media coverage should not be restricted 'only to stories of crime and rape' but also focus on positive and development-centric stories.

"The role of both the print and electronic media is very important... But media is often seen focusing on issues of corruption, publishing stories of rape on the front page.

They should focus on development stories and positive news also", Bhujbal said at a function here. He was addressing the gathering at the launch of the third edition of English daily 'Lokmat Times' at Kalidas Kala Mandir here.
