While 'The Indian Express' has been able to prove nothing, it did win the narrative war temporarily. Their clickbait headline convinced amateur political enthusiasts that a scandal exists where it doesn't.

While Abhinav Pandey did talk about the Jharkhand student protest, there was a marked change in intensity. There were no campaigns seeking resignation or pressure on the Hemant Soren government to remove its Education Minister. The overall coverage and the 'call for accountability' was borderline non-existent.
