The Indian government is becoming a joke by the day! Now The Economist has written about the irrelevance of Rahul Gandhi in an article asking, "What's the point of Rahul Gandhi?" Before that, TIME magazine had dubbed our Prime Minister as an underachiever! And then, of course, Washington Post came down heavily on him.
The Indian government is becoming a joke by the day! Now The Economist has written about the irrelevance of Rahul Gandhi in an article asking, “What’s the point of Rahul Gandhi?” Before that, TIME magazine had dubbed our Prime Minister as an underachiever! And then, of course, Washington Post came down heavily on him.
And what was the government’s reaction? Well, like immature, intolerant fools, they lodged an official protest — exposing to the world that the article was indeed right and more; exposing to the world the government’s mindset, which looks eerily similar to that of Mamata, who shows complete disdain for democratic values and goes about arresting lecturers to farmers. And if that was not enough, then the Indian government gets a cartoonist arrested by using a law that should have been discarded ages back.
