New Delhi: India under Narendra Modi’s rule has increasingly drawn comparisons to an apartheid state, with experts and activists highlighting the systematic discrimination against religious minorities, particularly Muslims, and the erosion of democratic values under his regime.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) government, led by Modi, has been accused of implementing policies that push for a Hindu Rashtra (Hindu Nation), sidelining the rights of minorities and marginalizing dissenting voices. Analysts note that the Hindutva-driven agenda leaves no room for pluralism, steering the nation toward autocracy.
The Modi-Shah duo has often been compared to the fascist leadership of Hitler and Himmler, with critics pointing to their centralization of power and the use of intimidation and violence to silence opposition.
Human rights activists and journalists face relentless pressure in Modi’s India, with intimidation, arrests, and censorship becoming commonplace.
Civil liberties have sharply declined since Modi took office in 2014, with rising cases of mob violence, particularly against Muslims, and state-backed crackdowns on dissent.
Observers warn that Modi’s arrogance and authoritarian policies are dismantling India’s democratic framework, calling on the international community to act before apartheid-like conditions become the norm.
#ModiApartheidRegime is trending on social media, amplifying global concern over the worsening state of civil rights in India.
