Political conflict
editThis news source seems to be in conflict with ring wing political Indian news sites. I am not Indian, and I do not understand the nature of this conflict. I barely understand anything in Indian politics. I could not cite the following sources because Wikipedia's editors have blacklisted them as unreliable. Still, I will note the conflict here on the talk page.

Please discuss
editSaurabhsaha, the current information is misleading. I updated them according to the sources [1]. Editorkamran removed them altogether. What is going on? Vacosea (talk) 20:55, 1 September 2023 (UTC)
- Thank you for bringing this to my attention. Could you please elaborate on how the current information is misleading? I will review and update the information as needed. Saurabh{Talk} 01:04, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- The "misreporting" was only a mistake of identity that other prominent influencers had also made without realizing the parody nature of Times How, as explained in the paragraphs. Regarding the poll, Janta Ka Reporter tried to explain how its outcome changed over time as it reached different audiences. This was not a surprise because "it’s hardly a new fact that the BJP and Modi government has a large number of supporters on social media like Facebook and Twitter," so the final outcome of its poll showing online support for the prime minister was actually valid, even though Janta Ka Reporter itself does not support Modi.
