Kashyap’s comment that Bengali cinema has become ‘ghatiya’ has triggered rage and self-loathing. But the real problem is that Tollywood has been reduced to a cottage industry.
It sends the message to every forest official that their jobs no longer depend just on addressing environmental concerns, health of wildlife; it also depends on naming of animals.
Bazball destroyed England’s greatest batter in this series. Joe Root scored a brilliant hundred in fourth Test match only when he shunned the illogical Bazball approach. This should be lesson enough.
In recent history, hate crimes against those of Indian descent in the US can be traced back to 1980s when a gang known as ‘Dotbusters’ targeted Indian Americans in New York-New Jersey.

Can you counter with facts ? Just because you don’t agree with the writer does it mean they are sellout?
Liberal logic says that anyone disagreeing with them is a dictator. They can’t fathom a leader like Modi who is winning without minority appeasement.
After all minority community has the first right to the resources of India according to Manmohan Singh.
And also I personally cannot stand that German shepherd when he says humara Bharat, he’s no longer an Indian anymore.
How can you say that minorities are in danger when Muslim(20%) beheads a Hindu (80%) openly for simply supporting Nupur Sharma.
I really hope Modi becomes the monster you think he is.
And yes, yesterday you thought Vajpayee was communal and hardliner, today you think he is moderate, same think will happen when Yogi comes to power. Just wait and watch.
the writer forgot of the demonetisation that screwed we indians, that was never discussed in parliament, never with ministers themselves… ground reality is saffron terror has cropped up to a greater extent now, muslims are easily being lynched, their properties bulldozed, murdered, rights being snatched, madarasas being demolished, minority scholarships being removed… and the list goes on… but truth is irrespective of religion and caste, how did india flourish? how many people today have safe n pure drinking water? how many people today have easy access to healthcare? how much has the corruption come down in all govt. offices and projects? how are the elections being won – on what basis? how many people are today employed? everything today is based on religion, .
Mandal’s explanation seems to be too simplistic. It is true that many policy reforms were kept in abeyance in the last few years, but thinking that this government had done it fearing the backlash or criticism may not be appropriate but for the Farm Laws. In this case also if one year the economic rationale aside, the drafting is so poor and leaning towards the traders it would have proven a mill stone for the govt. All other issues are directed at getting political gains and if they are useful at that point of time, this govt would never push for the same.
Yes Mr. Dilip. If you say BJP failed to deliver on those aspects mentioned by you is only because their dictatorship has not fully flourished and established yet. That is work in progress which must stop ultimately, else we’ll lose freedom again in our country.

A good and factual article. It is easy to use bad language, like one sees in many of the comments here, and make assertions, but difficult to produce facts to back up one’s arguments.
Dhruv Rathee’s presentation of the series of events leading to today’s political dispensation is un disputably factual.
It will be too late if the people of India do not wake up and find corrective action.
What about Buying of MLA’s
What about stealing power away from AAP in Delhi
What about breaking opposition in Maharashtra
Modi has brought democracy of India to its knees… Look at the amount of communal hatred in the society.
Modi must go and Modi will go… We don’t want to become developed like China at the cost of our freedom.

Didn’t expect this from Print. After all survival needs money.

These r sm of the broad areas mentioned
But on the ground it seems what Dhruv Rathee mentioned is slowly taking shape

Dhruv Rathee did only gave points for the people to decide. Looks like this journalist have personal conflict with Dhruv Rathee.
I think there is difference between ” Modi is a dictator” or “Modi is becoming a dictator”.
THIS ARTICLE IS SHIT , BJP IS USING MALPRACTICES SIMPLY. SOME ELECTION COMMISSIONERS ARE WITH THEM TOO.
