1 A certain Delhi based “journalist” is having a meltdown over not winning the @NobelPrize. She’d been told it was a “sure shot” & has been calling up people saying Modi pressurised Norway. She had an elaborate PR campaign planned this year including a @TIME story.
2 A major Delhi based editor had in fact told me in February this year, that there was in fact a campaign afoot because “it’ll be another 10-15 years before they look at journalism again”. Curiously a well known left-oriented investigative journalist confirmed that it was left
3 Journos who were campaigning furiously to deny her the prize. The left has been trying to distance themselves from her fables & fantasies for a while now, but they won’t attack her openly. However they knew it’s only a matter of time before her lies get busted & that would have

5 media community in Delhi got whiff of what was happening. So I guess the Modi government which was (as usual) clueless about what was happening, owes a huge thank you to its leftist detractors, who have saved Modi a major public embarrassment without him even knowing about it
