Did BJP President Amit Shah just copy a year-old joke by stand-up comedian Sorabh Pant?

In his comedy special ‘Make India Great Again’, Pant had joked that if a coalition of Opposition parties came to power, India would have a different prime minister every day.

Forget having one PM, it’s not working. If there’s a coalition, 6 PMs, done. Monday - Mayawati. Tuesday - Mamata Banerjee. Wednesday - one of the Yadavs, take your pick. Thursday - one of the Thackerays, they’ll take their pick. Friday - Reddy? Saturday, Sunday - Rahul Gandhi, because government doesn’t work on weekends. Done!
Sorabh Pant, comedian
