Delhi: Baby Kejriwal: Stop Using Kids for Publicity Stunts


It is said that a picture tells a thousand stories. I had seen the above picture spread on media for some time and thought it was cute. But then I saw its video and seems in modern times we should cancel the old saying and make it "a picture can deceive; but a video tells the whole story". 

In the video showing how above picture of "baby Kejriwal" was taken, a lady, perhaps the kid's mother was holding it. The kid looked annoyed, perhaps due to heavy makeup and getup - fake mustache, glasses, an uncomfortable cap, solid color full sweater and a muffler. The mother looked up and showed him something in the sky; the kid followed and tried to spot it - that is how above still picture was captured. 

I find it sad that politicians and parents are using kids for publicity stunts.
