TheAltWorld New Explosive Book Reveals Modi’s Vengeful Imprisonment of His Critics
In the ten years Narendra Modi and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has held power, Modi has presided over an evisceration of democratic rights in India. He has institutionalized emergency laws within the Constitution, enabling the government to “unilaterally designate anyone as a terrorist without any proof.”
Suchitra Vijayan, author of How Long Can the Moon Be Caged? Voices of Indian Political Prisoners, explains that while Modi’s crackdown on dissent has had a “chilling effect,” that “the defiance and the resistance hasn’t gone away.”
“Authoritarian regimes learn from each other. India learns quite extensively from Israel.” Just as Cop City in Atlanta exchanges tactics with the NYPD, “cops in Israel are having the same thing replicated in India.” –@suchitrav
