Aroon Purie thinks Manipur is Mizoram
In recent edition of India Today (September 6, 2010), such ignorance has been noticed where Aroon Purie, ‘The Editor’ in chief and ‘Editor At Large’ uses Manipur and Mizoram interchangeably! When a reputed publication like India today makes such mistake, it is quite understandable that, national media ignores North East routinely! In its editorial, Aroon Purie writes, “In Manipur, the state has banned citizens from buying a car unless they have residential parking”, while Ravi Shankar writes ” the Mizoram government has decreed that only those with garages may own cars”, on page 41.
