Bhagwant Mann’s March 2026 “ISRO/this row” satire attributes “mera ISRO se purana nata hai” to Narendra Modi. But the phrase was already online as Chandrayaan comedy on 23 August 2023, three days before Modi’s documented 26 August visit to ISRO’s Bengaluru centre, and official Modi/PMO material reviewed does not establish the quote. The chronology supports…

Open Post: “ISRO se mera purana nata” was online as comedy before Modi’s 2023 ISRO visit

Modi’s current Parliament profile and 2024 election affidavit list a 1978 B.A. from Delhi University and a 1983 M.A. from Gujarat University, and officials at both universities have publicly said their records support those qualifications. The 2023 Gujarat and 2025 Delhi High Court rulings concern RTI access, privacy and disclosure—not a finding that the degrees…

Open Post: Modi’s declared degrees are backed by university records; RTI rulings concern disclosure, not authenticity

Shubhankar Mishra’s 20 July reel captured a real but time-bound criticism: at that point no direct public Modi response to the NEET-UG 2026 protest had been identified.

The Supreme Court’s 2026 framework identifies inconsistent enforcement, rather…

Open Post: Hate-speech accountability requires exact attribution and even-handed enforcement, not political proximity alone

Narendra Modi’s 2014 call for a strong, unafraid media is authentic, and the 2026 Oslo clip genuinely shows a journalist calling for questions as he left. The wider record is more significant: he has taken questions at rare joint press conferences abroad, including in 2023 and 2025, but Reuters reported that he had held no…

Open Post: Modi’s limited unscripted press access as PM contrasts with his 2014 call for a strong, unafraid media
