Why BBc News ONLY?

Question

in a recently telecast programme for potential candidates for the IAS it was being suggested to listen and watch BBC news and views channel to ensure success. is it not the worst type of colonial hangover. would those people themselve strequire some counselling?

Answer 1

Hey listening to the BBC does not necessarily mean that you are subscribing to colonialistic views! Relax buddy :-)

BBC news is still the world's leading news service - they cover international events extensively and provide unbiased reports (having opinions without a strong bias is a must in IAS preparations). Also, BBC helps improve your Received Pronunciation (RP) which makes you sound clearer and more professional to the panel.

Answer 2

Classical Traditional General Advice is always like that

Seems Odd

Reflects Narrow Mindedness & mildly crosses height of Stupidity

They need counselling

If with existing IAS officers, selected with this methodology

If this is the output,

No one (citizen) is really so happy

Lots more is expected to improve the state of the nation India

Answer 3

BBC is most unbiased news channel which properly select news items purely on the basis of their news value. It shows BOTH sides of the picture in quite balanced manner, unlike Indian newschannel, where there is hardly any room for counterview. For example, on problem of disputed territory, Kashmir, BBC shows details in favour of India & against India too well comprehensively whereas all Indian channels deliberately hide all malpractices & drawbacks of India, knowing fully well that Indian legal position is very weak on Kashmir issue(compare parrallel cases of Junagarh & Hyderabad & learn yourself). BBC team is highly professional. BBC news details are highly accurate , reliable & most useful from general knowledge point of view. Create such top standard professionals in India & find that they will be equally reliable.

U  are probably still living in mental slavery wher u think of Britts as better than u.
