   Accoring to me Censorship of offensive content, language and behaviour by a
   regulating body is perhaps necessary. I would like to present my view not by
   a mere statement but rather by an analogy. In a democratic form of
   government one might argue that the freedom of speech is the fundamental
   right to any person. Well i would say that  this statement might be
   theoritically correct but practically it is not. Consider a classroom full
   of children. Do we expect them to be quiet in the absence of a teacher. I
   guess not; but yes when a teacher enters the classroom he/she brings a
   necessary amount of discipline in the class which is infact enjoyed by all.
   One might say that the comparison between a child and an adult is
   fundamentally flawed, but to this my answer would be that when we look into
   the real picture we find that the very subject that we are talking about
   i.e. obscene behaviour and language is much more prevalent among adults than
   it is among children.
   Hence it do calls for a necessary governing body which maintains proper
   discipline among people.
   But, over here i would also like to mention that the regulatory body should
   be wise enough not to subside others' thoughts for some self interests. 
   Hence with a proper choice of a regulating body we can see a better place to
   live.

   >the issue persented above is government offical should be allowed to censor
   the radio and t.v programs is interesting one. According to me,on one
   hand,Censorship of offensive content, language and behavior by radio and
   television programs should be necessary.on the other hand, its role should
   be limited.I would like to present my view with personal observations and
   some times personal experiences.  
    
	Radio and T.V programs are now-a-days part of life in society.people
   learn most of the things from entertainment media. if such media uses a
   offensive language then people use to learn it.the media should be a thing
   to teach ethics   along with entertainment.Grade3 student,for example, speak
   lengthy dialogs,songs by observing from entertainment media once or
   twice.when the same is teched by a teacher the student cannot get
   immediately.media has that much influence on people.so programs conducted in
   the radio and television are to be censored to prevent the society from one
   of the adverse effects of media.government need to take responsibility.
	  Any country is united of different nations, religions and cultures.
   if a program is criticize one culture or one religion, then there will be
   rival between one and other religions people.in my experience, when i was in
   10+2, a television  conducted a program " whose religion is great". that
   debate leads to storm in the society and there were approximately 250 people
   died in the war between the two religions.so media should be controlled by
   government or higher bodies to prevent such piece in the society.
     the role of government in censorship is to be justifiable. in my
   opinion,regulatory authorities should not attack the freedom of the media to
   bring out the facts ,that have to reach by the common people, like scam by
   government officials and adverse government policies effect the people.when
   the government and higher authorities conduct the censorship perfectly we
   can see a better world ever we seen.
