I'm pretty sure that this is not an example of irony. There's no unexpected or ambiguous element in the British covering news in India, as they have had an interest in the subcontinent since 1600.

Last week BBC posted a story titled, "Rocket woman: How to cook curry and get a spacecraft into Mars orbit", about women scientists in Indian Space Research Orginisation. That's how ridiculously biased and condescending they continue to be. And that's why many of us get irritated by their news.
