The only problem I have with this is that free speech is being limited. I don't believe the documentary nor do I belive their government. What if both sides are promoting some sort of a propaganda?
I like to think the government is just incompetently responding to a useless propaganda piece. But the so called documentary could very well be a well timed attack to benefit the more palatable opposition to the current government that has embarassed the West in not immediately bending over backwards in Ukraine war. Or this ridiculous response from the government could actually be a way to bring the Hindu far-right back into the fold since it is not happy with the current government. (The "fascist government" thing really is propaganda btw.)
