>> "They have been investigating the case for 15 months but have not been able to unearth even a single rupee of illegal money. So much time and so many resources have been expended but they haven't been able to prove anything. This is just a political vendetta. The BJP knows it is losing," he said. [1]

Why would anyone be happy with atrocities being committed at people by the government? Do you like such stuff?

Pardon my language. But this is utter bull**t. Have you even read the link that you shared? It says:
>> "Special CBI court allows ED to question Delhi Health Minister Satyendar Jain"
>> "The ED is now probing the money-laundering angle"
>> "Jain is currently in Delhi's Tihar jail in connection with a money-laundering case, which is also being probed by the ED."
Do you know the difference between "jailed after investigation." and "jailed while being probed"?
If tomorrow CBI arrests you on allegation of money laundering and then keeps you in jail for one year while investigating, are you fine with that?
Can you please point me to a single news article which says they recovered any cash? And how much was it?
Can you please also point me to a single BJP leader in whole country who has been jailed while being investigated?
The SA accused BJP leader against whom women wrestlers are protesting was a BJP guest in yesterdays parliament event.
I am just amazed at the analytical abilities of some of today's "engineers" and "entrepreneurs". :(

I have backed everything with sources in my posts? Can you point out if anything is not correct? Or do you have a general issue when something is said against ruling party?
If you really care about reputation of India, how about advising someone in BJP to prevent this type of things from happening at first place?

>> He oversaw the downfall of the freest of wins in world politics anywhere.
BJP under Modi-Shah lost 8 states, 218 by-elections in last two years [1]
Karnataka and Himachal Pradesh are the two states where the BJP has lost to Congress in the last six months. The BJP lost deposits in 38.4% of the seats it contested in Southern Karnataka. [2] [3]
Modi was the face of election campaign and spent whole centre government money and machinery to campaign. Modi speaks a script written by someone else by using a teleprompter and has never given an open & live unscripted press conference in last 8 years ([4] [5] [6]). By your logic, are you trying to say Modi is also incompetent?
>> The exact line you quoted, literally ends with an "if at all" in brackets right after.
Got it. So you are hoping some day China will transition to democracy AFTER industrialization had been achieved, and you think India might need to convert to an authoritarian state in order to successfully escaped poverty? Is my understanding correct?
Also, you haven's still answered my 2 questions:
1. How is "The ban on crop burning (main cause of Delhi's pollution) was central to the farm bill."?
2. What do you mean about this: "We do not vote for Presidents in India. The president was selected by the ruling party"?

Mohammed Zubair and Pratik Sinha are Indian journalists and the co-founders of Alt News, an Indian non-profit fact-checking website. They were nominated for the 2022 Nobel Peace Prize. They have fact checked the claims from all political parties. [1]
>> Zubair was arrested and incarcerated by the Delhi Police for a month. His detention raised further concerns about the state of India's press freedom under Narendra Modi's premiership and was widely criticized by journalistic bodies, human rights organizations and the political opposition who allege that the arrest was an act of revenge against his role in Alt News' work of combating disinformation.[1]

1. BJP still control most of the mainstream media.
2. BJP has in past offered plum post retirement positions to judges after they delivered some controversial decisions in favour of BJP.
3. BJP has full control on Election commission, and the electronic voting machines. Despite multiple reposts of voting machines found in cars of BJP candidates, or videos of faulty machines showing votes in favour of BJP, and despite calls for letting opposition parties inspect machines, Election commission has never let them inspect the machines.
4. A large number of bigots are in various positions in various administrative services and in recent years they have started showing their hate in open.

BJP brought the Citizenship Act and the National Register of Citizens to act against the minority.

We also used to a time in Germany in 1940s. We should not let that happen again anywhere in the world.
