ScreenshotPM Narendra Modi sat through what PTI has called “his first face-to-face with a large contingent of reporters”. Finally, that long-awaited Modi press conference. When Modi began speaking, BJP’s Twitter handle tweeted out the livestream saying that the prime minister was addressing a conference. Now I don’t know about you, but Cambridge dictionary defines a press conference as “a meeting at which a person or organisation makes a public statement and reporters can ask questions.” Well, a statement was made. “Elections have been peaceful... we will win... I’ve very worked hard... yada yada yada.” And the, questions were asked and answered, just not by Modi.
