Gitanjali J. Angmo, wife of Sonam Wangchuk, said on X that media reform should come before education reform. She argued that television, social media, and online platforms strongly influence public thinking and shape narratives.
As calls for educational reforms continue across India following Dharmendra Pradhan's resignation, Gitanjali J. Angmo, an educator, social entrepreneur, and wife of Sonam Wangchuk, shared her views on X, saying that reforming the media should come before reforming the education system.
In her post, Angmo wrote, "Everyone is demanding educational reforms. Excellent idea. But can we begin by reforming the media first?"

Angmo said that television studios, WhatsApp forwards, YouTube channels, and social media platforms have become the biggest influencers today, surpassing teachers in shaping public opinion. According to her, some of these platforms teach people "to hate before we understand, react before we think, and choose narratives over truth."
