there is a political answer to this, but i will skip it.

it's worse, we don't have national consensus on what constitutes India's national interest.

politicians, planners, bureaucrats come from the citizenry. whatever multitude of opinions and life experiences that exist in the citizenry, they get carried on into their jobs which gets used for planning and execution.

why go that far, we have about 500 members on this forum at this point in time, a small microcosm of Indians. neither here nor in the previous forum, i have never seen a consensus on problem statements and what a theoretical solution should look like.

counter argument would be, there will be no consensus and that what we elect or appoint leadership for, i have given a vote for. well, then accept the risks and tradeoffs of an action as well.

folks want the snake to be killed, but the stick should not break and feelings should not get hurt. leaving very little manoeuvrability.

Quite agree with this ,
at the end our society itself is responsible. For nothing we were enslaved for 1000 yrs then watched and mere spectators on British loyalist getting powers (not to mention partition which messed our security even more) with all British laws ,rules,system,institutions etc intact.

Just becoz u think like that it doesn’t make it easier. Or easier said than done. In today time people are unable to control their child ,controlling country like ours where apart from huge domestic issue ,foreign interference is also there the way like you said is nothing but wishful thinking.
It did passed CAA albeit late even after huge violence by peacfuls after that peacfuls have turned tactical.
Farm laws well IMO GOI should cracked down ruthlessly like deng of China but may be there are lot of facts and “happenings” we don’t know .
We also seems to overestimate our institutions capability ,may they are not that much capable especially when whole nation is one chaotic mess as well due to corruption and political moles.

Ultimately it is dhindu themself who are responsible. As a society they first need to come together and seriously think about what’s wrong with them.

What are you talking about? Every country deals with foreign interference. We have an entire ministry for that, and that’s their job, and being paid for.

Just because someone can’t control their kid doesn’t mean no one else can. Proper grooming is essential. The same goes for a country.

CAA was the easiest part, they passed the law. But implementation is still a fantasy, even after 5 years. After passing the bill, we had the Delhi riots, with Hindus getting killed in the national capital. Now, convince me they have the might to Implement NRC and push back Kanglus.

And the Khalistan issue. They've completely failed there. We’ll see the effects in coming yrs. They held him hostage on that flyover, slapped a parliamentarian, and killed Hindu leaders. What's being done to crack down on these elements? Nothing. They even let a designated separatist reach Parliament. That’s a huge failure.

We can argue about it endlessly, but the reality is they had the capacity, especially in the last two terms with the existing political setup.

Being confidently ignorant is not a virtue. The CAA rules were implemented in March 2024. People were given citizenship based on the rules.

Rest of your points are not worth discussing. The adage of making a mountain out of a mole hill is suitable here. What you seek is perfection in your subjective reality. Many of us don't see your points as being major issues.

Indian babu/bureaucracy needs mass exterm!nation. It is completely broken right now, and with ever increasing urban population, it is not surprising our cities are getting worse or stagnating at best.

A country where PM can't suspend a constable would not change anything.

In India, have anyone ever heard that a service man ( from any service) terminated from job?? None.

Even if you heard, but later reinstated by Indian Kothas.

Indian judiciary is the sole reason for corruption in India.

Just 350 odds given citizenship in 5 yrs and 5 months of its notification. A symbolic move before the elections. Yet, it's an accomplishment they should be praised for. And was wrong on my side to include it.

Coming to
Not worth discussing b'coz they failed miserably on all those points, and you don't have anything to counter on that.

No one is seeking "perfection" in "subjective" reality. We, the fools are expecting the "least" from a "potent" and "capable" regime in a "pratical" world where our "reality" is at stake. The "facts" you believe is not worth discussing are the burning issues. not even listing the foundational issues involved.

Don't get me started on their shortcomings. Forget the policies related to national interest. What have they accomplished in Haryana or MP? They had to adopt khujliwal's freebie policy to come back to power in MP.

Check out the CI/CT thread and see the mess they've created. The strongest argument in favor of BJP was national security, and that's also been falling apart over the last 6 months with the chaos in Manipur and JK operations.

At present Khalistan issue is not related to religion anymore, it is a caste supremacy movement under the garb of Sikhism or we can conclude that Sikhism has been skillfully appropriated by a particular caste for their personal use , although I firmly believe that Sikhism is undergoing transformation since Max Arthur Macauliffe times and by 1947 itself it was transformed a lot due to reform movements to steer it away from Sanatan Dharma. But since Bhindiwala times it has clearly been hijacked by a dominant caste, due to which Ramdasia and Mazhabi Sikhs felt disillusioned and they either became followers of Deras or nowadays converting to Christianity en masse. I myself belongs to that particular caste but my views are different. They want to court their cousins in Haryana under the garb of farmers politics, and their ultimate aim is to create anarchy, there is certainly a foreign hand in it. I don't think they are capable to hijack the system but still government should not show any weakness.

I was writing a lengthy post on Social Engineering and was trying to summarize use of Awards scholaships and media hughlights to cultivate favor. But lost that post. Will need to retype everything.. sigh

In India, comedy is no longer a funny business

Stand-up is booming, but performers face political pressure to self-censor

That isn't the point. Freedom to critique politicians/culture etc has been a part of humanity ever since humans started to record history. It isn't right that these people face arrest warrants for speaking against some aspects of Indian society or the government.

This is a malaise. Police is to enforce law and order. Why is it being used as a tool to intimidate? Is speaking against rape a crime that Vir Das faced arrest warrants? If we really want India to be "developed", it means letting people express dissent, especially when it isn't violent.

I support BJP. But I most certainly don't support this low level behavior. The state shouldn't have the power to suppress non violent dissent just because the fragile ego of some people was hurt.

this may be true from a western perspective, where there is no active threat to national security and territorial sovereignty. this narrative has come primarily from U.S, UK and central europe, their free thinkers do not have to take into account riots , targeted killings and terror attacks funded by neighbouring and foreign countries, India has to take these into account.

societies of poor post-colonial countries operate on different fundamentals, one wrong move and few weeks of instigated riots, crores will go into poverty as a result, deaths are a given. recent examples, no one anticipated that one high court judgement in manipur will cause such a chaos. events that culminated in nupur sharma's death threats started with saba naqvi's tweet.

for India, multiple national security threats are ever present.

And how the fuck is Modi responsible for this? This happened under decades of corrupted Congress rule and SP rule which BJP is trying to overcome. Enough with your stupid BJP/Modi baiting. They did not create this situation. They are trying to rectify this situation and guess what? UP voted for the other fuckers that made this happen. So cast your aspersions to the people that enabled it in the first place.
