Challenges to Democracy in India
The chapter explores the influence tactics employed by Narendra Modi during the Indian election, including the controversial citizenship amendment act and restrictions on opposition. It examines the contrasting views on Modi's leadership, the implications of a potential third term, and the threat to secularism with proposed language policies. The debate over India's democratic nature is framed within the context of political arrests, media bias, and the use of social media to stoke religious tensions.
