News report published in Prajavani reg GRM

Incidents after GRM:

• Mrs Manjula Devi, councilor Devasadnra ward (55) after the program went to Rajeevgandhi community members and objected on speaking openly about the water problems in the ward. And said if there is any problem they should come to her directly, and should not speak publically like this. The reason behind was that, the media persons and other ward councilors were also there in the meeting. And this was the question of her prestige. Report was published in Prajavani. with the facts.
• After two three days a person came to KR Puram and asked a person to which area he belongs. And the person replied to Rajeevgandhi; the moment he replied a picture of him was taken without saying or asking anything. Next day a report was published regarding KR Puram area which says there are no issues of water or road, only problem is of drinage. And picture of the person (Mr. Govindappa) was also published in the newspaper saying again there is no water problem, only but it would be good if the water is supplied on daily basis.

Here two points coming out are,

1. Why this kind of article was published within few days of GRM? Is it a gimic?
2. Without the concent of an individual, media can publish a picture and statement of public?
