What's happening in India is absolutely terryfing.

The government targets Muslims openly, turns a blind eye to crimes against them, and supports hate rhetroic until it gets international attention from countries that affect their economy (The Arabic gulf).

Any account that attacks the Government and their lies gets blocked from Indian users, and of course US companies comply directly, with no issues.

And whats is the Western response ?and where are the human rights accusations against india?, There is nothing.

human rights accusations from the West are basically political weapons, and mean nothing in reality.

Do you have any source for these claims.

Just sharing only a few examples on top of my mind. This is a pretty much everyday story in India.

- Bilkis Bano case: Bilkis a muslim woman, who was 5 months pregnant, was gangraped and her three-year-old daughter was among 14 killed by a hindu mob on March 3, 2002 in Gujarat. 11 Hindu persons were convicted and jailed. In 2022 court/government set all of them free. [1]

- In 2018 police arrested a 84-year-old activist Stan Swamy. Stan was a Jesuit priest with Parkinson’s disease. At a hearing in May, he begged judges to grant him bail so he could return home for what might be his last days. After spending nearly eight months in jail, he was sent to a hospital in poor health in late May. He was placed on a ventilator and then died in custody. Later it was found that the evidence that prompted his arrest were fake and were planted on his laptop by police/hackers. [2] [3]

- Mohammed Zubair, a muslim and co-founder of a prominent fact checking website in India (AltNews) was arrested for allegedly hurting religious sentiments. No action has been taken when many Hindu leaders have given hate speeches on video. [4][5]

- On 14 September 2020, a 19-year-old Dalit woman was gang-raped in Hathras district, Uttar Pradesh, India, by four upper caste men. She died two weeks later. Her body was forcefully cremated in the midnight by police. [6] Sidheeq Kappan a muslim journalist was arrested while on his way to to report on the story and he spent more than 2 years in jail. [7]

One of the saddest fallout of the Russian Ukraine war is that people like Modi get an upper hand and become more powerful by treading water between US and Russia.

I don't have a problem with BJP but Modi brand of hatred is unprecedented. Trump is similar but Trump knows his stuff and is a businessman while Modi left primary school and has been a religious vagabond all his life. His perspectives and mentally are restricted to what he has seen in his life which is almost nothing.

Why should west meddle in the affairs of a foreign country?

[jacooper]

Well they always do it "to defend human rights" but suddenly that doesn't matter in India.

Which is always a bullshit excuse to soothe the masses.

> but suddenly that doesn't matter in India.

Pffff, when had it really mattered to a culture, whose propaganda had turned "And you lynch negroes" into an insensitive racist joke. It's only brought up once the establishment needs to shit on another country or needs an excuse for a military or an economic warfare.

Not sure if you are propagandist or willfully ignorant of the reality. Try not to fall for every "cry wolf" by the propagandists here https://twitter.com/andymstone/status/1579644792077946882?re...

[throwaway384629]

Here are some references for you. Hope you can also share some to support your claim. You are the one who look like willfully ignorant.
