Apology demanded to Samaa TV on objectionable morning show
mahnaz rahman
�Sawera ka Chapa� is a morning show on Sama TV channel anchored by Maria.
This morning show is supposed to be investigative in nature and is meant to
investigate any issue, which it considers, in its eyes, injurious to society.
During this investigative program, all forms of basic human rights are violated
and it is an invasion to privacy. This program claims that it will help in
bringing �reforms� in society and slap the �evil� of so-called �moral
looseness�.
In its most recent episode, �Sawera ka Chapa� raided a park in Clifton Karachi
and humiliated the couples dating there. It seems that they have arrested the
criminals or culprits of unforgivable crimes. The program team ran after the
couples and forced them to give interviews without their consent. They asked
them unethical and illogical questions such as;
Why are you here?
Why are you dating here?
Have you prior approval from your parents for dating?
What are your reasons for running away from the schools/colleges/ universities
and offices during official timings.
You are the black spots on the name of family, community, religion and country!
You are the axis of evil in society!
Now the question is that; do the media have the right to act in this way and
threaten the dating couples of dire consequences?
Who gave this right to �Sawera ka Chapa� to ask such kind of questions and
infringe upon individuals privacy?
If the �Sawera ka Chapa� has the right to investigate and verdict then what is
the meaning of being policing and judiciary? What is the difference between this
kind of media vigilantism and that demonstrated by the Taliban?
How can the �Sawera ka Chapa� team blame �Abaya� as a symbol of prostitution?
Where is the censor board to censor such kind of programs?
The dilemma with us is that we are living in a country where the violation of
fundamental rights is a usual practice. No one dares to raise her voice against
such kind of violations. The violators are free to invade privacy without any
prior approval or consent. No formal accountability system is in place for such
kind of violations. The societal conservativeness and its adherence to some
so-called taboos restrict the individual�s freedom of expression and speech. It
also restricts the freedom of movement and association.
We, the civil society, are deeply concerned over recently aired episode of
�Sawera ka Chapa� and demand that authorities concerned must take appropriate
steps to compensate the harassed couples. We demand a formal apology from the
anchor and the producer, and assurance from concerned authorities that no such
episodes will be aired in future.

Although I do not support all the agenda and activities by the Aurat Foundation and NGOs of this kind but the point is true that MEDIA is not a SHO or a judge to have raids or give decisions.
Unfortunately we blame health sector for QUACKS but our media is also full of "JOURNALIST QUACKS", they do not know what is NEWS, what are current affairs, what are the limits to act as media persons. Tragedy is that these quacks are now media specialists running the whole shows as anchors and producers. They do not have journalistic background and just because of there "tongue qualities" has become the Masters of Media.
In the end Abdul Rasheed Azad SB, if I am in a park and someone trying to behave like Taliban SHO or Nazim of Jamiat, I will never tolerate or accept as a so called "Khudai Mohtasib"

I am 100 percent agreed with u. Actually when a person who does not know the values of journalism could do the same as Maya Khan did. But its not only her fault but its the fault of the team and producers too who initiated this stupid idea.
She has no right to in to someone's home or personal place to investigate. Even I am dis agreed with the contents of all morning shows.

I fully agree with mahnaz rehman samaa TV has no right to humiliate someone either it is a couple or individual.it is true that unfortunately in our country the not only the human right violation in common practice but we also feel proud when we break the low. The samaa TV show such act is very condemnable and the chief justice should also take a suomoto action against samaa TV team and should gave them exemplary punishment to stop such acts in future.

people have been ignored either by the government or the media and one
such example is the program aired on Samaa tv. The question arises
here is that in what capacity the anchor and her team asking questions
from the couples sitting there? Are they authorized to make a movie of
visitors without their consent? If any mishap occured there who would
be responsible for that, the anchor or the people sitting there? Media
should be careful and show responsibility and dont loose the moral
ethics.

power must not abuse their power like some of the anchors do. While
doing the kind of programmes - including those also done by male
reporters - one wonders as to whether exclusivity is the only motive.
These anchors, while hunting what they perceive as social ills must
also focus on the "greedy corporate ills."
Samaa for instance fired 25 workers last week in one go - rendering 25
families jobless . Is there any sense of responsibility at all? Will
this act reduce or add to the socio-economic ills?
Also, tv reporters and anchors must be discouraged to act as moral
vigilantes. They dine and dance with those corporate executives who
throw their workers out on a wink, without considering the plight of
all those people.
Same is happening I guess at other channels. While rationalising
expenses is a desired corporate necessity, this probably should not be
happening st the cost of all those poor workers whose cumulative
salary bills are far less than that of a prominent anchor.
Poor, hard-working workers do need a more empathetic consideration.

Dear all,
Here is the response of Samaa TV CEO Zafar Siddiqui on the tv show by entertainer-cum-journalist Maya Khan:
"I have travelled to Khi to look at this matter and yesterday Maya apologised in her program for this. I can assure this will never happen again. Samaa is a progressive channel. There are certain other directives that have been put into place as of yesterday. I thank everyone concerned in bringing this matter to my attention. It's really appreciated."
On the other hand, Maya has made NO apology so far and said this was not about hurting people and the discussion on public forums is pointless.
She claimed that she had been advised by "some parents" to do this show. To open eyes of those concerned parents, here is a video clip in which she is seen dancing on tv show and hugging a na-mehram guy. What a hypocrisy!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0qFuxbjafdM
In another development, advertising companies are also considering to not release any advert to any such TV channel which broadcasts such cheap tv shows, invades privacy of people and harasses innocent citizens.
Thanks,
sahir

Outrageous, disgusting. I am so mad that it's becoming hard to control my rage. I wish I was there in the park and this cow approaches me while I am on a date! I am sure she would get what she deserves from me. I may have punched her live in her tv show. I am not sure but I guess Maya was accompanied by Amber, formerly of The News and she herself was a bombshell in her days. And even in this clip, where she is following the instructions of that cow, Maya, she doesn't seem all that Islami. What a pathetic state of mind (and affairs), really!
I am sorry for my non PG language but this whore, yes the attention-seeking-whore needs to be taught a lesson. Thanks!

السلام علیکم۔
سب سے پہلی بات تو یہ کہ پاکستان میں الیکٹرانک میڈیا خود رو گھاس کی طرح اگتا چلا جا رہا ہے اور میڈیا کی آزادی کے نام پر جو چاہے کرتا پھر رہا ہے۔۔مقصد اس کا صرف سستی شہرت ہے اور اپنے پروگرام کی ریٹنگ بڑھانا ہے۔ مجھے ذاتی طور پر معلوم ہے کہ کس طرح ہر پروگرام کے فارمیٹ کا فیصلہ ہوتا ہے اور کون کون سے کرتب کر کے پروگرام مشہور کروانے کی کوشش کی جاتی ہے۔آپ لوگ ہمارے چینلز کے پالیسی میکرز کی سوچ کا اس بات سے اندازہ لگا لیں کہ شام کا وقت جو ٹیلی وژن کی پیشہ ورانہ زبان میں پرائم ٹائم کہلاتا ہے جب سب سے زیادہ لوگ
ٹیلی وژن دیکھہ رہے ہوتے ہیں اس وقت دنیا بھر میں انٹرٹینمنٹ کے پروگرام چلتے ہیں لیکن ہمارے ہاں اس وقت سیاست دان ایک دوسرے کو ٹاک شوز میں بیٹھے گالیاں دے رہے ہوتے ہین۔ایک آدمی جو دن بھر کی تھکا دینے والی مصروفیت کے بعد ذرا ریلیکس کرنے کے لیے ٹی وی کے سامنے آتا ہے وہاں اسے مسائلستان مسائلستان کے نعرے سنائی دیتے ہیں۔اب بتائیے اس کی ذہنی حالت کیا ہو گی؟؟؟۔ہونا تو یہ چاہیے کہ اس وقت ایسے پراگرام پیش کیے جائیں جن سے عوام کر تفریح ملے نہ کہ اور ذہنی اذیت۔
دوسری بات یہ کہ جہاں تک چھاپہ مار قسم کے پروگرام کا تعلق ہے اس طرح کے پروگرام ساری دنیا میںٹیلی کاسٹ کیے جاتے ہیں۔اور پارک ایک عوامی جگہ ہے۔یہ کسی کا گھر نہیں نہ ہی چادر اور چاردیواری کا نظریہ یہاں فٹ بیٹھتا ہے۔بنیادی انسانی حقوق کسی بھی ملک یا قوم کی تہذیب اور اخلاقیات کا جنازہ نکالنے کی اجازت نہیں دیتے۔آج کل ڈیٹنگ کے نام پر جو کچھہ ہو رہا ہے کیا وہ بنیادی انسانی حقوق ہیں؟؟؟یورپ اپنی اس آزادی کے ہاتھوں خود یرغمال بن چکا اور ہم اس سے سبق حاصل نہیں کر رہے۔ہم ان کی اچھائیاں نہیں اپناتے کمزوریاں خوب اپنا لیتے
ہیں۔
خدارا! نسل ِ نو کو بنیادی انسانی حقوق کے نام پر بے راہ روی کا درس نہ دیں۔
زیرِ بحث پروگرام کا طریقہ کار غلط ہو سکتا ہے اور قابلِ گرفت بھی۔لیکن ڈیٹنگ کی وکالت نہ کی جائے۔ذرا تصور کیجئے کہ کیا کسی کی بہن ،بیٹی کسی غیر مرد کے ساتھہ اس طرح پارکوں میں گھومے پھر تو کیا وہ بنیادی انسانی حقوق ہوں گے؟؟؟؟
اس "ڈیٹنگ" اورلڑکیوں لڑکوں کے آزادانہ میل ملاپ سے کسی کی زندگی پر کیا اثرات مرتب ہوتے ہیں اس کی جھلکیاں آ پ یو ٹیوب پر اپنی "سابقہ گرل فرینڈز" کی ویڈیو پوسٹ کرنے والوں اور ان لڑکیوں کی تباہ شدہ زندگی پر تحقیق کر کے دیکھہ لیجئے ۔آپ ڈیٹنگ کی وکالت کرنا بھول جائیں گے۔
نیوز چینلز کے لیے ضابطہ اخلاق ضرور ہونا چاہیے اور انیکر پرسن اگر حقیقی معنوں میں انسانی حقوق کی خلاف ورزی کریں تو انھیں عدالتوں میں لے کر جائیں۔ایک یا دو اینکرز کو سزا ہوئی تو باقی سب خود سدھر جائیں گے۔
نوٹ: امید کرتا ہوں کہ میری رائے سے کسی کی دل آزاری نہیں ہو گی۔

If we see the logic of the issue, the protest is quite right, we could not spoil any one's private life for the sake of TRP or content of the of the show.Morning programs are getting impossible, they can go for any worst and useless format for the program content.
The society has many black spots then blaming a individual for his/her misbehavior or any anti-cultural chore done by anyone.At least publicly exposure on the national TV could disgrace them in the society. Here counseling by maintaining the secrecy needed, if they are determined to guide them for their good.
Hypocrisy is the main problem of our society, highly liberate electronic media criticizing on such things? strange, who always talk about the freedom of expression, questioning on the freedom of individuals. Isn't it confusing?
The channels should line up the code of conduct for them, this will definitely improve their quality and also help them to obtain the intellectual viewership in future

Unethical happenings covers everything whether it is Indian content or Pakistani content, if it is unethical, it should be condemned and stops immediately which is destroying our society. It is true Indian content is unethical but see Pakistani content these days, actively promoting the topics for instance ‘extra marital affairs’ which is destroying our culture. Before targeting Indian content we should evaluate our Pakistani content first.

It is not for one channel, I think every channels should check their programme,( we know that
Media is best tool to spread information to the masses.) All channels should arrange
training programme to their staff (Anchor, Producers, and Cameramen) about to
know social structure of our families, social norms, what are the ethisc, how to pay
respect the viewers and people. They must know Human rights, and media rights
also theymust know what is their restrictions and where they not violet the restrictions. saleha

I think we should not hold Maya khan accountable for all the mess what
she did, but the person who gave her this idea and convinced her to go
in such paradigm.
Camera is an independent weapon but that doesn't mean to interface in
a couple, but that was awkward day for the couples who were
unfortunately caught and exposed. If her father saw the video may be
he will be shocked and dishonored in society.
In perspective of Islam, an Islamic Scholar can explain better
precursor values in this regard and off course you may know that “Is a
girl of a noble family or someone’s sister / wife allowed to meet some
one stranger in park?” but in the western point of view “freedom of
expression is a chapter that tells us “Yes! This is allowed” now you
have to judge which side are you going to take, Islamic or Western?
And Thanks God, This was Karachi “City of lights”, people cannot
imagine these deeds in tribal areas due to patriarchal society,
because even getting education for a girl is a big hurdle there as we
have witnessed and therefore, Human right activists who believe in
“Freedom of Expression” like I do believe & support the marginalized
segments to help them in virtual cause, But as far Parks and out
spaces are concerned in regard to “Freedom of Expression” it depends
upon a mode / type of family, either they allow their daughter /
Sister / wife to meet some one without their consent / information or
not?
There are different factors on the other hand we do not acknowledge as
the fact which is happening in this Islamic country like kidnapping of
girls and training them to become prostitutes, wines smuggling, free
drugs and even blue movies that are prepared and produced in hotels on
demand but that aspect is totally kept private and criminal activities
are frequently underway, Police may know to any extent but media is
deprived of this information. Maya was doing her Job but if someone
wants to punch her, it depends on their ethics.
Aurat Foundation was the first to raise this issue, now its Maya’s
turn to explain the facts behind her program and needs to clarify
herself before the nation otherwise she’ll become unpopular like an
actress who went India and earned degradation in the eyes of Pakistani
nation.” At the end, media must be in limits with innocent people.

Asad Khan

You r rite that Maya is not the sole responsible of all this. Definitely program producer was a partner. But if u r from media , u know that big names never see the producer. Producer of these programs are a kind of filler in newspaper.
Maya was proudly presenting the cases over there without any guilt. They were just jocking and taunting .there was no serious discussion.
Well , u quoted islam so as Muslim v have to take care of religion but this is a long debate that what is allowed and what is not allowed.
Maya khan dance with various actors on tv is allowed? Maya khan pictures in "tun" condition is allowed. So there are many things to quote. Hate sin not sinner.(Gunah se nafrat kro ,gunagar se nahi). So she did wrong. She not only a one life but she destroyed the life of the parents, brother and sisters of those couples.
