Over the past four years, a lot has been written about how Prime Minister Narendra Modi has never given a press conference since 2014.

Today, the question came up during BJP chief Amit Shah’s press conference in Delhi. A reporter asked him for his opinion on Rahul Gandhi’s comment that Modi had not held a press conference since he came to power.

Dear Mr Modi,
