“One Modi Fan, Two Channels, Infinite Propaganda: How Godi media Turns Nepal’s Protests Into a Modi PR Show”
When Nepal’s streets erupted in massive anti-corruption protests, indian media had two choices:
👉 Report the truth of a people rising against a corrupt system, or
👉 Manufacture a Modi-flavoured fairytale to please their bosses in Delhi.
No surprise — NDTV and Times chose the second option. Both ran to the same lone Modi fan in Nepal and built a headline: “Gen Z in nepal wants a PM like Modi.”
Here’s how Godi media insulted journalism yet again:
1. One Man = Whole Generation?
indian media found one Modi supporter in nepal and painted it as the voice of an entire generation. That’s not reporting. That’s copy-pasting propaganda.
2. Ignore the Corruption, Sell the Slogan
The real protests were about corruption. But corruption is a dangerous topic when your own government is drowning in it. Easier solution? Just twist the story into a Modi appreciation ad.
3. NDTV + Times = Synchronized Spin
Both channels, once rivals, suddenly hunted down the same guy. Coincidence? Or the same PR briefing handed down from above?
4. Narrative First, Truth Later (If Ever)
This isn’t journalism. This is narrative engineering. Decide the headline in the newsroom, then go find (or manufacture) one person to fit it.
5. Nepalese netizens Call the Bluff
people online weren’t fooled. Trolls mocked: “At least give them credit, they found the only Modi fan in Nepal.” That’s how transparent the propaganda has become.
6. When Journalism Becomes PR
The job of a reporter is to amplify voices from the ground. The job of Godi media is to mute those voices and amplify Modi. The difference is the death of credibility.
7. The Real Question
Are we being shown news? Or are we being fed a script written in delhi and played out in Kathmandu? When journalism becomes stage drama, democracy pays the price.
💥 Bottom Line: NDTV and Times didn’t report Nepal’s protests. They reported a Modi PR fantasy. By chasing the same man to peddle the same line, they proved once again that Godi media isn’t in the business of truth — it’s in the business of selling Modi to every corner of the subcontinent, facts be damned.
