    {
        "message": {
            "$": "@12:55 Big Rally on South Bound of Dr. B.A. Road. Motorists may use RAK Road, P. D'Melow Road & A.B. Road for CST.\n -visit icicilombard.com"

Your JSON should look like that:

[
    {
        "message": "@12:55 Big Rally on South Bound of Dr. B.A. Road. Motorists may use RAK Road, P. D'Melow Road & A.B. Road for CST.\n -visit icicilombard.com",
        "picture": "",
        "medium": "API",
        "timestamp":"03\/15\/2011 12:55:42 IST"
    }
]
