#NLPrimetime begins!

Some weird shit is going down on @aajtak today. It first said AYUSH Ministry has prohibited ads for Coronil, the medicine launched by Patanjali.

10 seconds later, a wild ad appears for Coronil.

Anjana Om Kashyap is now interviewing Baba Ramdev about Coronil.

Segment sponsor?

Patanjali of course!

#NLprimetime

Here is ABP News also showing the entire segment of Coronil launch, which is as good as a promotion.

Earlier today, guess which company was showing ads for a different segment?

Patanjali of course!

#NLprimetime

Republic TV doing a segment on Coronil with Ramdev.

Arnab asked him about the AYUSH Ministry notice, Baba said, "We have clarified everything with the ministry and there will be no problems in the future. We should be proud that India has come up with a cure."

#NLprimetime

On News Nation, random screaming about China.

Someone called Dinesh Kumar's tweet flashes saying,"China product should be band"

Because why not.

People, Deepak Chaurasia has found a way to blame Mulayam Singh Yadav for the death of our 20 soldiers.

He said, "Ceasefire deal was signed between China and India in 1996, when Netaji was defence minister. This is why our soldiers died."

#NLprimetime

Today's #NLprimetime is proof of "when Patanjali Pays, Patanjali is served."

That's why we keep saying, support independent media! Because when you pay, YOU will be served. And we won't serve you unproven magical corona cures. Pinky promise.
