This week, we watched the government scramble—not to help victims of the deadly stampede at New Delhi Railway Station, but to control what the media reported about it. First, they restricted journalists’ access. Then, they tried to dictate what could be posted online. Because why address a tragedy when you can manage the headlines?

Meanwhile, at the Mahakumbh, the holy waters were found to be teeming with faecal bacteria. The official response? Denial, of course. And instead of questioning those in power, our TV anchors were busy attacking opposition leaders—because that’s the real national duty.

And finally, in a blast from the past, we bring you our version of Roadies: How to become a top-tier TV news anchor in India! Just master three skills—be abusive, be aggressive, and most importantly, be servile. Toadies Banega Tu?
