Arundhati Roy Questions Modi's Awareness of Criticism

Arundhati Roy Questions Modi's Awareness of Criticism

Arundhati Roy, a famous writer, was talking about Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

She wondered if Modi knows about all the jokes and memes people are making about him on the internet.

These jokes started after a protest about a leaked exam paper turned into a big deal.

The police used force on the protestors, which made people angry.

Young people started making fun of Modi in a very creative and sometimes rude way.

Roy thinks this is important because Modi usually doesn't talk to the press or the public, and these jokes have made him look less powerful.

She also thinks that humour is a big part of politics.

The movement that started these jokes has already done more than people expected, showing that even young people can make a big difference.
