By the 90s, all traditional media outlets in India were eating from the palm of the congress-communist parties and were part of that ecosystem that deliberately kept the Hindus splintered and demonized.

The narrative of the state education in India has been that if you are a Hindu, you have to be ashamed of yourself because of the caste system and there is nothing else about Hinduism except the caste system. The internet gave voice to the Hindus and for the first time allowed educated Hindus to feel like it was ok to feel good about their Hindu identity; sure their society is not perfect, but they can fix the iniquities; the core philosophy of Hinduism is something to practice and protect. True democracy started in India only after the arrival of the internet.

There seems to be a tendency to show only one part of the story, the part which suits so called authors these days.
O come-on rchpra , you are neither leftist liberal nor secular. If you are so , why you show your khatri caste surname.You people have pathological problem.
Do you remember what so-called liberal and leftist media propagated after gruesome murder of kamlesh tiwari. Some said it must be money matter or personal enmity.
Rajeev Srinivasan certainly had a great impact on me personally. His service for the protection and wellbeing of Motherland certainly deserves gratitude.
