Bhopal, Jan 29 : Hundreds of girls and boys from tribal and other government schools took lessons on literature, media, content, digital journalism and social media during a two-day Malwa Media Fest which was held in Ratlam district of Madhya Pradesh.

The students raised questions while listening to different sessions and the veteran guests, which included poet and writer Aalok Shrivastav, IIMC former Director General Sanjay Dwivedi and journalist and author Prakhar Shrivastav among others, helped them understand.

Answering a query of one of the students on his question if history is being changed, Prakhar Shrivastav said, “History is not being tried to be changed but is being tried to be corrected, he said.  Prakhar was speaking during the two-day Malwa Media Fest organised under the banner of Saksham Sanchar Foundation in Ratlam on Saturday and Sunday.  Speaking on the occasion, he shared his thoughts with the audience and questioned “Why was Mahatma Gandhi silent during the partition? Gandhi used to say that Pakistan will be made only after walking over my body. But then he kept silent even when the resolution for Pakistan was passed.”
