In Uttar Pradesh, a press conference took a bizarre turn with journalists, instead of focusing on official announcements, rushed to grab snacks, leading to a chaotic scuffle.
Plates clattered, tempers flared, and videos of the scene quickly went viral, drawing criticism and amusement online.
Many questioned how professionals tasked with holding power accountable could lose focus over something so trivial.
Earlier this year, a similar scene was seen at the Madhya Pradesh Global Investors Summit, where a stampede broke out at the buffet.
An event meant to showcase India’s economic potential instead made headlines for the wrong reasons, with bureaucrats and business leaders scrambling for food.
