Dear Dhruv Rathee, Democracy Isn’t Dead

In a compelling response to Dhruv Rathee's recent video on "Dictatorship in India," today i take a critical look at the claims made about the erosion of democracy in the country. Through a blend of factual analysis, contrasting viewpoints, and a touch of humor, i will try to systematically refute Rathee's arguments by highlighting the robust nature of India's democratic framework, the vibrancy of its opposition, and the active role of judiciary and media in maintaining checks and balances. i'll present evidence and examples to argue that the narrative of dictatorship is oversimplified and overlooks the complexities of Indian politics.

60 years of Congress :- democracy ☠️
10 years of BJP :- dictatorship 🙂

[pmvku-kwoi]

If India is a poor democracy, Did BJP win the Karnataka or Telangana elections. Were the EVMs faulty then as well?"

"Bharat’s per capita income has doubled since 2014"

"Modi’s India got its much-deserved political stability. India isn’t a troublemaker but a consensus builder.

"Modi’s Kashmir went through economic resurgence and landmark social reforms"

"Social media misinformtion campaign against the rising Bharat is fierce today"

[aaryankakade]

Dhruv has consistently highlighted that India isn't yet a dictatorship, but he strongly suggests it's heading in that direction. Throughout the video, Sham has cited various incidents to highlight opposition parties' mistakes or corruption charges, while BJP seems to be engaging in multiple questionable activities simultaneously, largely unnoticed by the media. Sham supported dhruv on how charges against opposition leaders are instantly lifted as soon as they join BJP which i appreciate. Previously, when other parties were in power and made mistakes, the media ensured they were criticized, but that's not happening now; instead, the ruling party is being glorified. The recent incidents, such as the imprisonment of an AAP leader and the sealing of Congress accounts, echo tactics seen in countries like Russia (as opposed to Sham's opinion). This supports Dhruv's assertion that India is indeed moving towards dictatorship if this trend continues. It's valid to criticize other parties for their corruption, but since BJP is involved in such activities, it deserves criticism too.
