Apparently, prime minister Narendra Modi’s high school teacher has surfaced—an 80-year-old man, just five years older than his supposed pupil. Let that sink in. India, where logic dies a silent death, now has us applauding a scenario where the lines between “guru” and “classmate” are blurrier than a whatsapp forward. From bending to touch Modi’s feet, to remembering suspiciously specific RSS absences from half a century ago, this tale raises more questions than it answers.
1. Maths Teacher, Where Art Thou?
Modi is 75. His teacher is 80. Somewhere, an arithmetic teacher is banging their head on a blackboard.
2. Who Looks Like the Teacher?
Check the photo. Without captions, you’d never guess who’s the guru and who’s the disciple. Spoiler: both look like they’re attending the same 50th reunion.
3. Memory Like a Hard Drive
This “teacher” apparently remembers that young Modi skipped every school day that clashed with an RSS event. Really? Fifty-plus years later, and he recalls Modi’s attendance register? Meanwhile, most of us can’t even remember our WiFi password.
4. Guru Doing Namaste to Shishya
What kind of narcissist makes his teacher bend and fold his hands before him? The whole point of being a guru is commanding respect, not acting like a party worker in saffron.
5. Auditions Closed, No Younger Actor Found?
Out of all of gujarat and Delhi, they couldn’t dig up a single professor from Modi’s college days (the ones he never attended, perhaps)? So, we got a teacher only five years older than him for credibility theatre.
6. Selective Storytelling, Full-Time PR
Why stop at high school? Let’s get some kindergarten teachers, maybe his playground buddies too, all with miraculous memories of how “chhote Modi” skipped hopscotch whenever RSS had a shakha.
7. When Optics > Logic
This isn’t about history, it’s about image-building. And nothing screams “statesman” like parading an 80-year-old “guru” who could easily pass as your classmate.
👉 In the end, this isn’t a student-teacher reunion. It’s a stage play where age, logic, and dignity are optional, but propaganda is mandatory.
