TV Newsance 307: Dhexit Dhamaka, Modiji’s monologue and the murder no one covered

This week on TV Newsance, we decode the big “Dhexit Dhamaka” – Vice President Jagdeep Dhankhar’s sudden resignation. Officially, it was for “health reasons”. Unofficially? Anchors had a buffet of wild theories, from Modi-Dhankar tensions to Opposition dosti.

Then, PM Modi gave his longest speech ever before a Parliament session – a full 18 minutes! But not inside Parliament… outside it. Because who needs debates when you have monologues? Anchors like Anjana Om Kashyap lapped it up, even spinning some Made-in-India misinformation while they were at it.

And while all this tamasha was unfolding, one of the most horrifying stories in recent times made some news – the Dharmasthala mass burial case. A Dalit sanitation worker’s testimony points to an alleged case of mass murder and decades-long abuse. Why is the media silent? What is the judiciary doing? We tell you why this story is important. 

Watch the full episode and drop your thoughts in the comments.
