In a humorous incident, a TV news anchor from India Today mistakenly read a statement from a parody account of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, congratulating Donald Trump on his victory in the US presidential elections 2024. The parody account’s tweet claimed that Modi would discuss issues like Khalistani terrorism allegedly enabled by Justin Trudeau, violence against Hindus in Bangladesh, and the Ukraine war with Trump. The anchor initially presented this as a “strong statement” by Modi before realizing the error and quickly correcting himself. The video of the blunder went viral, sparking amusement on social media. Shiv Sena MP Priyanka Chaturvedi criticised the channel, highlighting irony in its earlier comments on biases in American media coverage. The anchor later clarified by reading the actual congratulatory message from Modi’s official account. PM Narendra Modi Congratulates ‘Friend’ Donald Trump After His Historic Win in US Presidential Election 2024, Says Let’s Work Together for Betterment of People, Global Peace.
