Uttarakhand. CM Pushkar Singh Dhami congratulated on World Press Freedom Day. He tweeted and wrote – Hearty congratulations and best wishes to all respected journalist colleagues on World Press Freedom Day. As a vigilant watchdog of democracy, your contribution in the development of the nation and promotion of various public welfare schemes run by the government is commendable.
Journalism is called the fourth pillar of democracy. This is a risky job. Many times journalists are attacked while doing journalism. Many examples of this have come to the fore all over the world. Journalists do not hesitate to risk their lives to bring out the truth and fulfill their responsibility well. It is very important to give them freedom so that no power can suppress the voice of journalists who work by risking their lives. Only then they will be able to do their work well. With this objective, World Press Freedom Day is celebrated every year on 3rd May.
