In an interview to discuss the impact of 7 years of Narendra Modi’s prime ministership on India, Pratap Bhanu Mehta says Modi has made the country communal and authoritarian and went on to say that he has nightmares about what the future could hold for India. Dr. Mehta says he fears that if the present impact of the Modi government continues India could fracture and there could be widespread violence. He says he has nightmares about this.
In a 45-minute interview to Karan Thapar for The Wire, Dr. Mehta, who is widely considered India’s foremost political thinker and who’s columns are widely read and respected, spoke about the collapse of institutions like Parliament, which he said had more or less ceased to function.
Dr. Mehta said the failure of the media to challenge and question the government is exacerbated by the way several of its organs actually promote and actively spread communal poison.

Sadly, their voices doesn't reaches the majority and even if it did, our population isn't educated enough to understand critical political matters and their long term consequences.

would this guy accept that the word secularism in the constitution cannot be considered legitimate because it was introduce by an autocratic govt run by dictator Indira Gandhi during emergency. the answer is he will conveniently dodge it. he is complaining about everyone but his own commitment to democratic principles which makes him look nothing but arrogant. the issue is people for whatever reason have chosen to disrupt the establishment and Modi is just an instrument who is now taking the lessons from past and making things even more uncomfortable for hypocrites like the two in this discussion. for long people like mr. mehta and karan (less said is better) have never raised issues with the governing style of congress PM or for that matter Sonia Gandhi who without any power had absolute authority over every decision made by that govt (read Sanjay Baru's book). so, for them to sit here and lecture us or BJP on india's compromised democracy is quite rich and hypocritical. if he is truly believes in the democratic principles then he should accept people's mandate in Modi's favor and admit that there is an alternative thought process (however uncomfortable it is) and people like him needs to lead a debate with that establishment. by calling names and fear mongering he is showing how intolerant he and his brigade have become and also are not willing to accept that there is an alternative thought process.

Mr Indian, i really think that you haven't heard the interview very well where they firstly make us know about the powers of the various institutions which are decreasing at an alarming rate about the freedom and proper working of parliament , election commission etc . You should first be neutral while watching these types of interviews. There are hundreds of points which can be raised against the working and mentality of this government nd Mr Modi too. I agree on this point that he should be praised for the good deeds he does but in reality , most of the things are disturbing for the democracy. Try the see the truth in front you us... Peace.

@@zabuk410 Everything that is wrong should be discussed and proper actions should always be taken , but here i am not supporting any specific Party or their beliefs, as we know very well that there is always something worse than bad , that doesn't mean that we get satisfy with the less bad which we are being faced now a days. There should be a mindset to hear and understand the things without comparing it with the condition worse than this. If this practice raises , then there would be a very less chance of improving something, cz everyone can get satisfied by making oneself know about the other worse conditions than he would be facing. The aim of this interview was to focus on the working and mentality of our PM but not on the the other aspects about which you made me know. Here raising these concerns doesn't mean supporting the other party. We should see this interview as a informative subject and all information can never be true, so we can disagree too. If they are not talking about the working of Congress nd other parties then there would be surely a proper debate not necessarily by these two intellectuals , where the improper workings of the other parties would also have been discussed. So focus on the topic. By comparing this topic to another can't demolish its facts. Be uniform, away from any influence while hearing these types of interviews on such serious topics about which barely any so called news channels dare to talk

Don’t bark your mouth away and bring no solution on the table to the alleged problem Modi Ji is responsible for.

Unfortunately, the citizens of this country are unable to any action due to Indian democracy. When we have the right to elect, we should given the right to vote out the leaders. Supreme Court, the highest judiciary was in shambles until the current CJI Ramana took his chair and is now clear in their stand and playing their role in getting justice and can be strong in their verdicts and legal matters rather than bending down to Central Government's whims and fancies.

Some might be thinking when did this happen Hahahahah it was planned and executed in very smooth way with a weapon called collegium. And the nightmare is all those judges are already taken there respective offices . Just keep a close eye on judgements how they are passed and in who's favour . 9 our of 10 judgements are passed in favour of bjp government and that 10 judgement is pronounced in such a way that it won't damage bjp just like a candle on the mid wall .

I agree, but its duty of parents to educate children that religion is personal & to read about history divide & rule was used by britishers not once but numerous time to take over India and even when they left they still divided us. Its to an extend today major part of out GDP goes in military while our research budget is nt even in single digit its less then 1% of the total GDP. Also it shows being from land of aryabhatta we are really bad in maths or very gullible. Basic maths is 80% more or 14% or 2%. Of the 14% 7% are females and 7% male including children 2.4% and old 1.6%. So his govt is saying the majority 80% so weak and frail that they should fear 2% of the population. Its time to stop kids frm watching godi media or waste time on facebook or whatsapp which is doing nothing but spreading hate (new accounts of its whistleblower) but make them to read about history and explore themselves to Indian culture and different religion. And share the same with your friends and so on. Love and kindess can kill hate. Its strange in land of Bhagwat Gita where Bhagwan Sri Krishna said im in everything and evrything is me.

It is the police and the judiciary which are responsible for what India is today. Because the service of police and judiciary is mostly beneficial to the criminals. The justice system in India is pathetic. The common citizens' mind, it comes that the judiciary seems to be desperate to give Cline chit to the criminals. As a result those who were supposed to be in the jail, they are ruling the country.

What if the economic decline for four years in a row is not a coincidence, but by design? What if the economic decline is a strategy to make available a raging section of the youth as the foot soldiers for the communal political project? And then the energy and rage of these foot soldiers are harnessed to spread the communal poison, and the bursts of carnage. Conversely, periods of economic growth and opportunities have rarely produce a conducive political environment for the political dividend from social divisions, since the potential foot soldiers are gainfully engaged in meaningful economic pursuits. If this sounds far fetched, a glance at the world over the past century would throw up quite few instances. And again over the past two decades, what looked sporadic has now emerged as a new trend in many parts of the world. National populism is just another form national socialism.

The position that bad economics is predetermined is based on the assumption that modi and his cabinet members are actually good at economics and are playing dumb about it. Perhaps they are just really bad at running an economy bcz they have a poor scientific temperament, want a yesmen cabinet so they choose people who are ignorant and easy to control; these are all facts too. Most dictators are extremely insecure people who see everything as a threat. Look at the people going missing under Xi Jinping and the abuse of UAPA under modi.

To cut it short what Muslims in the comments saying to Hindus - "Since Pakistan & Bangladesh are already Private Account of Muslims, while India is a Joint Account, so if you don't give us special minority rights or stop us from what we want to achieve as per the guidelines of Quran or assert your mythical figures in modern India, then you are fracturing India again."

Selfish interests of Minorities to expand at the cost of Majority was tolerable when we were 99.99 % but now when we are 75% , Muslims and Christians take it as our weakness. Otherwise in which part of the world, would an alleged "aggressive" Majority ask for Anti-coversion Bill against the aggression of Missionary Minorities?

@@avinashmishra7735 you really think you'll stop Dalits and Adivasis leaving Hinduism by putting them in jail? You'll just drive them underground. Hinduism has never addressed manusmriti, trishanku and shambooka, they're supposed to be just the way things are. Why on earth would a Dalit be a follower of such a religion?

@@GM_- No religion is as scientific and ever-evolving as Hinduism is. Hindu Unity (Hindutva by dissolving caste) is more opposed by Christians& Muslims than Hindus (some arrogant brahmins and reservation enjoying dalits) themselves. Islam and Christianity are internationally major religions which have their franchise in India but backed by a huge amount of money and international support just like KFC and McDonald's in a small town in India. It is not fair to give them minority status with special privileges to prppagate their relgions and control Hindu temples for secular purposes. Free our temples and we will open hospitals and schools just like Christinas do. 😀

After a long time we hear a wise Pratap Bhanu being interviewed by a well informed Karan Thapar. The sad commentary about India is that the absolute power to Modi comes from a Hindu business funding that gives the BJP the means to sell their narrative. In short, use an election to get into power by overwhelming margins through opaque funding and then interpret their mandate to ram through partisan politics. In return the business cronies get a supportive Goverment! One hopes that the UP elections will be the start of the fall of the BJP

India has had it a lot worse in the past. The present government, whatever its ills, isn't a spot in front of the casteist governments of the 1980s and 1990s when it comes to silencing the election commission, subverting institutions, dividing the population or even provoking violence. If India did not fracture then, there's no chance of it doing so now. It's really sad that an otherwise astute person like Mr Mehta must toe this dangerous narrative. It's a reflection of the nadir the left-leaning Indian intelligentsia has reached.

The most worrying quotes from this interview "The current level of communal poison is very difficult to extract, it is similar to the 1930s and 40s which resulted in horrendous violence. What this poison once instituted in Civil society can unleash! India is deeply fracturing itself. I am having nightmares about where this process of communalization will end up? A significant section of our population will be completely alienated. "

The rise of Islam can only be at the cost of Dharma and vice-versa. Gone r the days of One Way Tolerance. If dealing with Mutual Respect to minimize the overall harm of Dharma on the basis of Truth & Reconciliation is communal, so be it. To cut it short what Muslims in the comments saying to Hindus - "Since Pakistan & Bangladesh are already Private Account of Muslims, while India is a Joint Account, so if you don't give us special minority rights or stop us from what we want to achieve as per the guidelines of Quran or assert your mythical figures in modern India, then you are fracturing India again"😃

Moreover in every civilised society in the world minorities rights are protected and yes in turn a few more privileges are given to them than the rest...like the ones we receive when we migrate to other democratic countries.
