> by no means is it an authoritarian state

The linked article would indicate otherwise? I think one's standards of democracy have to be fairly low, to not see that Indian state is at least proto-authoritarian.

From what I can see, India is doing pretty badly in most indicators, be it democracy indices, HDI, employment (The usual response to this from Right wing is that these are "western indicators", and the government doesn't have any data).

I don't think your nationality matters to witness the sequence of events and come to an objective conclusion.
