The news of her resignation divided opinions on social media. While her supporters felt that it was NDTV’s loss, her detractors, particularly BJP supporters, took potshots at her by reminding her fake Harvard University job offer.

Former Colors TV head, Raj Nayak, wrote, “Wishing you the very best Nidhi, I am sure better things are in store for you!” Former NDTV Editor, Rajdeep Sardesai, wrote, “Go well!” Suhasini Haider of The Hindu wrote, “Shine on….onwards and upwards! All the best Nidhi, always.”

Nidhi had last left NDTV was in 2020 when she said she was joining Harvard University. However, months later, she sensationally admitted to being conned by a fake recruitment racket.
