ISRO has made Indians proud many times but this time, it was special as it made a world record by sending 104 satellites into space in one shot and accolades came from all around the globe, even from Pakistan as well.
However, whenever ISRO achieves success, New York Times receives flak and gets slammed and trolled by Indians for one mistake that it committed in October 2014.
In October 2014, NYT made fun of India’s Mangalyaan achievement by publishing a cartoon which showed an Indian dressed in rural style with a cow standing outside the cabin of ‘Elite Space Club’ and knocking its doors.
The backlash was bound to happen as Indians are always proud of ISRO’s achievements and at that time, ISRO’s space mission was at its best. Indians trolled NYT so aggressively that it was forced to make an apology.
But memories are still alive in the minds of Indians and they won’t mind taking NYT back into those times with a picture of today’s reality.
Here comes the latest reply:
Ouch, that must have hurt!
