The Times of India did a huge weekend spread and trekked back to Rori village and Swami Narsimhanand’s temple in Ghaziabad. Tehelka also did their own short-form documentary with the same case studies from Uttar Pradesh. The same talking heads, Parminder Arya, Swami Narsimhanand Saraswati and Anil Yadav were seen across all media. ScoopWhoop, Scroll, Huffington Post India and even Zee News carried the same story.
