Dr. Anil Singh, Executive Editor, Star News delivers lecture on “Role of media and its relation with Law” at ALS

A lecture on “Role of media and its relation with Law” by Dr. Anil Singh, Executive Editor, Star News was organized by Amity Law School (ALS) for its students at Amity University Campus, Sector – 125, Noida.

Presenting his welcome address Maj. Gen Nilendra Kumar, Director, ALS, Amity University Uttar Pradesh (AUUP) informed the audience about Dr. Anil Singh deep insight and background of International Relations (IR) who has written two very successful and informative research books on IR.

Delivering his lecture Dr. Singh said “Media is a mirror to the society that reflects the real picture of the socio – political condition of a nation. In India Media invariably has a constructive role in nation building right from pre independence era till date. With the advent of electronic media television assumed greater responsibilities to generate awareness in people with respect to politics, economy, legislation, parliament, judiciary, society and culture”. He added “Media is the fourth pillar of democracy that transports the voice of the common people to the power circle. In the recent times, Media has proven to be an active operator in the legal cases like ‘Arushi Talwar murder case’, ‘Jessica Lall murder case’ etc. Sharing his views on the career scopes born out of the kinship between media and law, Mr. Singh informed the Law students of Amity that both electronic and print media require legal correspondents to run the legal programmes and legal columns respectively and suggested it to be a good opportunity for those students with a Law background who may not wish to join the judicial system as a career option.

The lecture was followed by an vivid interactive session between Mr. Singh, the students, and faculty members of ALS wherein topics like media activism, TRP, Breaking News etc were discussed.

A bunch of students at Amity Law School visit an Orphanage during the Amity HR Quarter

Report by the participating students:
--

Feb 2nd was a day when we all learned a thing, that is misery and pain are so very predominant in this universe that our individual pain looks very small infront of them. There are so many children throughout India and the universe who have no one in there life at all.There is not a single person also to give them a glass of water. Another scenario is there are even children’s who have there parents but still there parents don’t earn enough to feed there children’s. Endless pain and misery lies in this so called era of development and technology.

The thing which we need is a helping hand from our society to help these children’s. Many Ngo's are coming up to help these children’s. One such Ngo is ASHRAYA BHAVAN located in Faridabad. We had the opportunity to visit this Ngo on Feb 2nd 2011.A Ngo run by Mr.Chandy Verghese. It consists of 60 children’s. An effort was taken by us so that we can add a bit of spice in there gloomy life. Drawing competition was organized by us. We find out some good painters there. 1st,2nd ,3rd prize was also given to them. Then after that we played some games with the childrens.There were some brilliant chess players even.The childrens played like as if it was there last day of playing.They were very happy to get some company for themselves. To add to there happiness we gave pencils,erasers,pens and stickers to them.The children were really happy to receive those gifts.The were very much excited even to receive those things from us. Lastly before leaving snacks were served by us to the children.This was a day when we all felt that we all could do a little bit for the mankind and our society.
