seriously? Someone who's generally considered to have been very racist is your reference for what people think today? Not exactly a good argument for why you should be taken seriously.
Another example of cultural vilification by the west is work of Katherine Mayo "Mother India"
It's not a question of legitimate complaint. They didn't complain, they froze assets and halted the organisation's activity. The question is whether or not the Indian government's actions are legitimate, and whether or not their stated reasons are true. On the later, it seems to be a clear no.
The government didn't wake-up overnight to freeze NGO's assets. Many NGOs were NOT filing annual reports that they were supposed to be filing, and their compliance(even pre-2014 norms) were not ensured by the govt. UPA have used these NGOs to instigate protests in various state governments as Congress lacked strong real regional political activities and lack grass-root touch with people. It was visible with the stron…
Is it just my skewed perception of more or less recent reporting about India's politics or is the supposed largest democracy on Earth slowly turning into an authoritarian nationalist state to a degree it hasn't seen in many years. Honestly curious, not a rhetorical question, in case anyone can clarify this with better information or first-hand understanding.
As an Indian residing in India this certainly feels so. Things have become bad enough that people self-censor. People have been arrested for sharing jokes about politicians to their personal friends over email or social media. Some have been heckled and beaten up. Such people have no recourse. Even if the local govt pretends to act, the perpetrators immediately gets a bail, because the courts are very much in bed wit…
Because the laws and treaties that enable it were enacted by the US government.
And what about the laws and treaties that enable enacted by the indian government? If they wanted to they could do what the soviet union did and impose borders controls to prevent indian engineers from escaping india.
That's when your US-based firms step in and say "stop or we're tanking your economy".

Isn't that the responsibility of the state-govt to ensure that people are educated? What is central-govt doing to "DENY" education and that based on "caste" ? I still didn't find any evidence.
The idea of the new policy of introducing public exams for the 5th and 8th grade is to discourage students to go to school. Once the govt school has the exams they are forced to fail few percentage of the students and very likely they will discontinue the school. This is the reason in the past till 9th students were promoted in tamilnadu which has the highest college goers because the students who were not performing in the mid school got a chance later.
The important question is what is driving this educational policy. Its the belief of the vedas that for a society to function well not everyone should have the same opportunity and access to education. Everyone has duty based on the family they were born and should not be allowed to change.
Opindia is a fake news channel that created to incite communal violence. https://thewire.in/communalism/bihar-opindia-khabartak-minor... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpIndia That you get your news from there, or if not, choose to paste links to their reporting tells a lot about your agenda here. Swarajyamag is rightwing mouthpiece. Opinion of one person on the internet who happens to have a twitter account counts fo…
If you are not a BJP shill and you claim not to be, you might be suffering from low self-esteem issues. Low self esteem men find solace in rightwing ideologies and this has been the case through out history. Solve your issue and thing will get better.
Any source on the motives of Indian nationalism for the "strict implementation" of varna system?
Most of the BJP leaders are former RSS members including modi. Source https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-india-29593336 RSS ideology is to make india a hindu religous state. Hinduism is based on the vedic books which advocate varna system.
Nonsense. Own creative theories by medieval privileged set now become "propaganda" loving "reservationists" treasure trove for justifying their own vile anti-humanity protectionism as quota. Point is, there are two branches of Hindu (Rather I prefer to term it as “Ancient" worldview).1- etymology from or from memory.2- etymology from or from listening.Now,it is not made differences in common perception and sense among those who doesn’t know or trouble to research on the same. State to state or even region to region as ASEAN countries, so called Hinduism and it’s values are different. Hindi derivatives languages speaking belts are all obsessed with casteism and some Principalities of South India. But, East of mainland India including Thailand, Myanmar and Far East regions— things are different. Shrauttyas don’t believe in casteism, but Smartyas does. Presently in "Clerk-Grade Coaching Institute-esque Macaulay education system, their so called mainland pundits often fails to infer those intrinsic and inert social dynamics in their societies. Nowadays, it has more opportunities (albeit in fakery of Government services and Social Welfare)to be in so-called untouchable set than in so-called hierarchical upper caste system—and, to continue this open bias, deprivation and denialism- urban 3rd or 4rth middle class novo caste activists usually churn out this conspiracy theory of victim hood. Btw, we are politically Indian and historically prior to East India Company never ever under any invaders rule or subjugation. There is no casteism in our part despite people do practice ancient religion of the subcontinent. Same in Thailand, Cambodia, Laos or South Eastern a China, Vietnam and Myanmar. There Hinduism is known as Balamon. Deities are there but with different names.Brahma is known in South East China as Fantian, Shiva as Shu La, Buddha as Baojio, Narayan as Nan La as so on and on... Hinduism there is rather a philosophy than mere food habits or cows ! Brahmans and all other castes does exists in other places but not the "reservation-oriented-Bihar" politics and opportunists.

True because it was posted on opindia ?
Sorry I don't take my driving instructions from a propaganda outlet whose editor has admitted [0] on twitter that it had been a political outlet.
Once they approach the neighborhood of Teltumbde credibility and service built up through decades, I will think about it.
> Okay you follow fake news scroll.
> Don't say OpIndia is right-wing citing Wikipedia and non-sense.
Oh the irony !
I didn't name call, [0] has a link to a spreadsheet that documents just a few (some 40 odd) of opindia's efforts at propaganda by airing fake news and deliberately slanted misreporting.
