The selected cartoons appeared first in other publications, either in print, online, or on social media, and are credited appropriately.
In today’s featured cartoon, Mika Aziz illustrates India’s recent entry into the ‘elite space club,’ alluding to the success of Chandrayaan-3. India has become the fourth country to land on the moon after the USA, China, and the former Soviet Union.
E.P. Unny gives a satirical take demonstrating the way news channels have been using the word ‘countdown’ for all the important events — such as the G20 summit and the 2024 Lok Sabha election — lining up.
In this cartoon, Sajith Kumar takes a jibe at the ruling party taking credit for the Chandrayaan-3 landing. The credit that should have been given to ISRO scientists is now being used to fuel 2024 election polls and for the party’s own publicity.
Sandeep Adhwaryu sheds light on the dual aspects of the lives of ISRO scientists. While they have successfully reached the moon on one hand, their personal financial situations pose challenges on the other.
Here, Alok Nirantar hints at Rajya Sabha member Sharad Pawar’s recent press conference. At the conference, the Nationalist Congress Party chief denied any rumours about there being a split in the NCP. He claimed Ajit Kumar was still their leader.
