It is very unfortunate that
News channels and news
papers cover only Politics, Sports, track the immoral and ruthless acts of the famous, most of the time. We definitely need to focus more on our National
Heros, for we are in their safe hands at the cost of their life and comfort. It is very unfortunate that in May (19th of May to be exact), 2004 a
brave hero who fought for the lives of others during the attack on Akshardham temple,
lost his life after fighting for his life for almost 600 days in coma. It was this act of bravery by this great Hero called Surjan Singh Bhandari, an N.S.G. Commando, that saved many a life on that unfortunate day on 24th Sept. 2002.

It was the Longest Wait for the family members of this Brave Man. When the whole India was busy in Guessing Who will be the Next PM of the country - Will it be Sonia or will it be Manmohan Singh, This man was fighting his Last battle. But it's so sad that in the hype of all the Political Drama, the News about his Death was Lost like a needle in a hay stack! Even the leading News Papers & So Called Best News Channels of India which work on 24 X 7 basis, failed to highlight this story of the Brave Man. Unfortunately it was mentioned somewhere on the middle page of some newspaper.....This was the Reward for the Brave task for which he lost his life.
It is not that these heros do their duties for any recognition when they are alive, and certainly not, posthumously. It becomes the primary duty of every Indian to
salute these great souls for all they have done to us selflessly. I sincerely believe that News channels and News papers should take the initiative, by giving an exclusive slot for these great heros (once in a week for atleast one hour in TVs and once every week in News papers) to bring forth their bravery, their difficulties, their problems and possible solutions and last but not least, salute each and every great man, who lost his/her life in service of the Nation.
I sincerely request all the News channels and News papers, to earnestly consider my request and let the Nation know about our Real Heros. I firmly believe that it can make people more patrotic while they salute these great souls.
