Dear Friends,
The job of correspondents be it for any media is very critical and crucial . More than the information they get and publish the same should be perfect. I have attached three reports first from NAVHIND TIMES, SECOND MID-DAY andTHIRD NDTV. Its like a quiz Spot the ten differences and win a prize for your self by informing the concerned agencies what really happened in Goa , most of the times bad reporting can cause havoc. I never knew we had a BORING BRIDGE i know there is one BORIM bridge.
