Dec 26, 2024: India mourns the passing away of former PM Manmohan Singh at 92. But during the announcement, a news anchor says Narendra Modi's name.
Manmohan Singh was instrumental in India's growth, especially the 1991 reforms. As PM from 2004 to 2014, he earned respect. But his death was eclipsed by the media's Modi reflex.

The anchor's mistake shows how deep Modi is entrenched in the media's narrative. Whether it's news, soundbytes or moments of national importance, the PM's name is always there, pushing other leaders and their legacies to the background. This moment highlights the media's Modi obsession.
The slip also raises questions on media balance and representation of all leaders. When one person is always in the news cycle, it distorts public perception and sidelines others like Singh. Media must recalibrate to ensure history is presented fairly, without one leader's shadow looming over all others.
