Bus driver Vijay Kumar killed by Islamic terrorists in Reasi, mainstream media silent.

Double Standards: The Unspoken Sacrifice of Bus Driver Vijay Kumar

In a world where news cycles move at lightning speed and headlines are constantly changing, it’s easy for certain stories to get lost in the shuffle. One such story is that of bus driver Vijay Kumar, who was tragically shot dead by Islamic terrorists in Reasi. What makes Vijay Kumar’s story so remarkable is not just the fact that he lost his life in a senseless act of violence, but the heroic actions he took in his final moments to save the lives of his passengers.

On that fateful day, as the terrorists boarded the bus and demanded that Kumar open the doors, he made a split-second decision that would ultimately cost him his life. Instead of complying with their demands, he chose to keep the doors closed, effectively trapping the terrorists inside and preventing them from harming any of the passengers. In doing so, he sacrificed himself to protect those in his care.

It’s a story that should be making headlines around the world, yet the mainstream media has remained largely silent on the matter. And the reason for this silence is clear: Vijay Kumar was Hindu. In a world where religious and political agendas often dictate which stories get covered and which ones get buried, his sacrifice has been all but forgotten.

This is not the first time that the media has failed to give due recognition to the bravery and sacrifice of Hindu individuals. In 2017, during the Amarnath Yatra, a group of Hindu pilgrims were attacked by terrorists in Jammu and Kashmir. The attack resulted in the deaths of seven pilgrims, yet their stories were quickly overshadowed by other news events.

The double standard at play here is striking. When a tragedy occurs involving individuals of certain religious or ethnic backgrounds, it seems that the media is quick to move on to the next headline. But when the victims are from a different background, their stories are often sensationalized and given endless coverage.

It’s a pattern that has become all too familiar in today’s media landscape. And it’s a pattern that needs to be called out and challenged. The sacrifice of individuals like Vijay Kumar should not be overlooked or swept under the rug simply because of their religious affiliation.

As we mourn the loss of Vijay Kumar and honor his bravery, we must also demand that his story be given the attention and respect it deserves. His actions on that day in Reasi saved the lives of countless individuals, and his sacrifice should serve as a reminder of the selfless courage that exists in all of us.

It’s time for the media to do its part in honoring those who make the ultimate sacrifice in the name of protecting others. It’s time for the world to recognize and celebrate the heroism of individuals like Vijay Kumar, regardless of their background or beliefs.

In a world that often seems divided by religious and political differences, let us come together to honor the memory of Vijay Kumar and all those who have given their lives in service to others. Let us remember their stories, their sacrifices, and their courage. And let us never forget that true heroism knows no bounds..
