April 2014 was the cruellest month, as it were, both for the Indian National Congress (INC), that had served two terms consecutively in power, its “worst defeat” (Modi Wave Wipes out UPA Cabinet, Congress Records Its Worst Defeat in Lok Sabha Polls, 2014, p. para 1) and what many believe for the very idea of India, bringing Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) in power. The 2014 general election was “biggest in the world”, ushering in the era of one-party rule in India, post-1984, without any official opposition party (India Announces Election Dates, 2014, para. 1; S, 2014). This election was unprecedented in several ways (George, 2014). For instance, for the first time, the lowest vote share by a party won the majority (Lok Sabha Elections: BJP’s 31% Lowest Vote Share of Any Party to Win Majority–Times of India, 2014). Because since 2014, most of the national media in India, “the Fourth Estate, more far important than they all” [other three estates], of democracy, has ignored the vocation it holds in speaking truth to power (Carlyle, 1872, pp. 6–10). As such, for instance, in India, it has been complicit in its role as “godi” (lapdog) media by contributing to moving “the needle”, writes Chatterji et al. (2019), “decisively toward the consolidation of a Hindu nationalist-majoritarian polity” (2019, p. 6). Several commentators have called this Hindu majority a “hoax” so as to go against “Muslims and other religious minorities” (Dwivedi et al., 2020). Accordingly, Sikandar (2020) asserts that Indian “godi” media is “waging a holy war against Muslims” (2020, para. 01).
