NEW DELHI (AP) — His social media accounts suggest that Prime Minister Narendra Modi is launching high-speed trains and rubbing shoulders with foreign leaders as a powerhouse on the global stage and the face of an ascendant India.

But that carefully crafted image, followed by millions, sits uncomfortably at odds with his silence on what’s come close to a civil war engulfing India’s northeastern state of Manipur.

    BJP has proved that if you remove the Gandhis from INC it will be reduced to just another BJP, a corporate slut, riding on fascism, selling the country to cronies funding their elections. People who want the Gandhis out are just asking for BJP’s long wet dream to come true.

      All BJP has proven is that if the opposition is not good, they will feel no pressure to change their tactics. Let’s keep the gandhis for another 100 years and help BJP build the fourth reich in India.

        * fifth

        USA is on the way to fourth, with its media-military ecosystem and things like banning abortion.

        Removal of Gandhis mean Congress will actually become just another party for BJP to buy and dismantle. There is plenty of nepotism in NDA parties, just like Congress, and the whole “Nehru/Gandhi bad” trope of Godi media is a cheap ploy anyone can see through with 2 brain cells.
