New Delhi (Lord Media): Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s government is facing severe criticism for its Hindutva policies, which are reportedly leading to economic decline and public distress. According to Indian publication The Telegraph, the Indian rupee is weakening, investment is decreasing, and private investment is being adversely affected.
India’s foreign exchange reserves are under pressure due to a decline in remittances. The government is accused of spending excessive amounts from the public treasury to glorify Modi’s image.
Home Minister Amit Shah is also accused of attempting to turn India into a Hindu Rashtra, marginalizing Muslims as second-class citizens.
The Modi government is alleged to have used institutions like the Election Commission for personal gain and maintained its power by pressuring the media.
