ON THE POINTS OF DIVERGENCE

Regional scope of the precedent
Coverage aligned with this reading

BIASES AND FRAMING IDENTIFIED

Delhi-centric framing: coverage focuses on government negotiations at Jantar Mantar, with limited attention to state-level dynamics across India.

Reliance on official sources (presidential statements, ministerial posts on X): limited space for unaffiliated student voices.

Minimal follow-up on promised judicial measures: reporting stops at the announcement of expedited courts without tracking implementation details.
