The current state of Indian comedy is booming. People from all across the nation are putting up their content on YouTube, performing overseas and are even helping budding stand-up artists to get proper exposure. But, to be honest, they’ve tough competition from our country’s politicians. While stand-up artists have to write scripts and practice a lot, politicians just improvise and give us comedic gold. The latest person to do so is our Prime Minister, Narendra Modi.
Twitter user @RealHistoryPic uploaded a video of PM Modi speaking on the use of toxic gases. However, the science in his speech about the production of bio-gas was extremely off.
“Kisi chotte se nagar mein, naale ke paas, koi chai ka thela lekar ke khada rehtha tha aur chai banakar ke bechta tha. Ussne ek chote se bartan ko ulta karke, ched karke ek pipe daal di. Aur jo gutter se gas nikalta tha, woh pipeline se uske chai ke thele mein le liya. Aur woh chai banane ke liye ussi gas ka upyog karke chai banata tha.“
To break it down into scientific terms, PM Modi is probably talking about converting sewage into gas/bio-fuel for powering stoves. And there’s no doubt that that’s a thing which is being developed in India since 2016. But the thing is, you need a proper industrial plant to do that and not just by overturning a bartan(pan).

While simple minded people might’ve bought this theory, others saw through it and took PM Modi back to school.

नाली से गैस बनाने की बात पर उस ग़रीब व्यक्ति की सूझ-बूझ की तारीफ़ करने की जगह ‘पढ़े-लिखे’ लोग भी अनपढ़ों जैसा तंज कस रहे हैं, जैसे कभी बायो-गैस और गोबर गैस के बारे में पढ़ा ही ना हो, मीथेन गैस सुनी ही ना हो, मोदी विरोध में अब विज्ञान को भी चुनौती देने को तैय्यार हैं लोग।

We Indians are truly living in the weirdest timeline of our country’s history where the leaders are coming up with the strangest theories. And the worst part is that there’s a large section of people who’re running with it. So, jokes apart, what do you think about PM Modi openly showing his scientific ‘knowledge’? Is it good, bad or just another reason for us to laugh?
