Abstract

The topic of research is about the defence forces of the country which include the Army, the Navy, the Air Force, the Coast Guard and the various Paramilitary Forces like the CISF, the CRPF, the BSF, etc. The term paper covers various aspects of these forces and brings out the real issues faced by the forces and our country. The term paper involves careful analysis of what journalists usually say about the Defence forces on national television. Various matters like One Rank One Pension (OROP),the complimentary facilities enjoyed by the military personnel, the proof of the Surgical Strike, etc have been discussed. The research paper would also delve into various statements that politicians have made on national media, as politicians are reckoned to exemplify the ideology of the people of the country. The term paper will also differentiate between nationalism, Hyper-nationalism and Pseudo-nationalism and how some of these are used as tools by the politicians to fool people and used by the media organisations just for some more TRP. Above all, the term paper would highlight the real issues faced by the soldiers and would suggest what the media should do in order to make the situation better and what they should not.
