The newly elected committee of the Indian Journalist Association, Jalna, was announced.
Raise of demand for strict enforcement of the Journalist Protection Act.
Journalists strongly condemned the threats made by Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Dina Patil.
Jalna, Maharashtra.
The newly elected committee of the Indian Journalists Association, Jalna District, was announced with great enthusiasm today. An important meeting was held at the famous Hotel Lake View in Jalna city.
At this meeting, the newly elected office bearers of the organization were presented with appointment letters and assigned important responsibilities. However, journalists present at the meeting strongly condemned the death threats and abuses made by Shiv Sena MP Sanjay Dina Patil against journalists and demanded immediate strict action against him. During this meeting,
the issue of safety and increasing attacks on journalists in Maharashtra was discussed, highlighting the increasing number of attacks on journalism and journalists, known as the fourth pillar of democracy. The intimidation of journalists by politicians and social evils continues.
The Journalist Protection Act provides for the protection of journalists. According to this law, attacking journalists is a non-bailable offense, and cases are registered. However, this law is not being strictly enforced. The law remains in force, and the police and administration do not conduct any substantial investigations or take strict action in such cases.
As a result, criminals are emboldened. The government should not only file cases but also strictly enforce the Journalist Protection Act so that fearless journalists can receive justice and protection. This important meeting was held under the chairmanship of State Vice President Marathwada Javed Khan,
State Organization Secretary Marathwada Anwar Ali Syed, and Jalna District President Amer Khan. Jalna Women's Wing District President Nikita Kale, District Senior Vice President Mujibudin Sheikh, District Vice President Sunil Bharti, District Spokesperson Mazhar Saudagar, District Patron Sunil Narvade,
District General Secretary Rahul Mule, District Secretary Sheikh Salim, and District Organization Secretary Tarang Kamble were present. At the event, newly elected office bearers were announced and appointment letters were presented.
Positions/Responsibilities of the Newly Elected Office Bearers: Junaid Mirza, State Secretary, Marathwada; Advocate Adil Khurram Khan, District Legal Advisor; Manisha Magre, District Vice President, Women's Wing, Jalna; Sachin Surve, District General Secretary;
Sheikh Ahmed and Arif Syed, District Secretaries; Bhavesh Ambhore, District Media Incharge; Azim Khan, District Spokesperson; Dr. Manor Khan Pathan and Sheikh Anisuddin, District Council Members; Sheikh Firoz, Jalna Block President; Mujahid Sheikh, Jalna Block Secretary; Imran Mirza,
