In 2-3 sentences explain how a media watchdog can benefit a democracy.

Media plays a great role in highlighting the any matter in shorter period of time. Media is an organization which keeps the government active and public involved. From the position of being a medium of information, it has become a powerful force in our daily life. The selection and the extent of media coverage by a television channel or a newspaper has set objectives behind it. It is important to make a critical appraisal of media before accepting or rejecting the news or the views.

Let us hope that the media brings important issues to the forefront, that are otherwise ignored. It must constantly draw the attention of the public and the government towards the issues like scarcity of clean drinking water, lack of health facilities, crime and violence, illiteracy, female infanticide, etc. That's why, it is truly said that "A democracy without a free media is like a car without wheels.''
