YE "Ecosystem" Kya Hai?

14 April 2023, Mumbai YE "Ecosystem" Kya Hai? Today, Indian m edia is abuzz with claims and counter claims on the encounter that happened in UP. Some Writers, Journalists, advocates, politicians, debaters, social media influencers making commoners believe that this was a staged encounter. No wonder if an NGO file up a PIL for setting an enquiry committee to validate the encounter (like in many other cases). A few days later some legal expert, educationist, celebrities may react emotionally, and some filmmaker may make a film showing him being martyred.

Seeing him buy, many from the crow buy that medicine, leaving a small chaos. And the show of snake-mongoose never happens! Public leaves the place, and after some time, one could find the “stranger” hobnobbing with the jadugar later! See, how smart seller that jadugar was! His man would act as the first customer...
