India's Media frenzy over karmapa's cash is unwarranted

New York
Over indulgence of Indian Medias over cash found in Karmapas residence and the manner in which news was relayed was most unfrotunate and unwarranted to say the least. Indian medias should pause and not draw any conclusion without the outcome of investigation. linking the cash discovery to Karmapa being an agent of China without any evidence is unfortunate. It is common practice in India for devoties of any religion to offer donation in cash and kind and accumulation of such cash within the premises of religious places is not uncommon. Having said that cash found in karmapa's residence in so called raid is at the worst the lack of proper bookkeeping. Indian medias uproar over the matters without conducting proper investigation is highly deplorable.When all the dust settle down, truth will come out and all the hooplas and uproar will prove nothing but a mere smoking gun. Raiding of places of worship in india is considered sensitve and same should be the case  here.

That is what happens when the media people write what people want to hear, rather than what people really need to hear.
That is one of the biggest demerits of press freedom in democratic countries like India!
