Hey Cockroaches, while you were protesting, Godi-Jeevis were eating Melody 🪲 TV Newsance 343

This week, Indian TV discovered its biggest diplomatic breakthrough: a packet of Melody. 🪲

While the Cockroach Janata Party was uniting millions of young Indians over unemployment, paper leak, a media that has no spine — our Noida TV news anchors were busy celebrating a toffee. Some even brought Melody packets to the studio. No, really. As Prime Minister Narendra Modi gifted Giorgia Meloni the famous toffee, anchors treated it like a masterclass in foreign policy. Melody, Meloni, diplomacy, hashtags, record-breaking views — studio-jeevis went gaga.

There's more. A Norwegian journalist did something Indian journalists are rarely allowed to do anymore — she asked Modi a direct question. The MEA responded with Gandhi, Yoga, and everything except an actual answer. And then Indian anchors did what they do best: went after the journalist.
