India has always been this bad. You're hearing about it now because India is aligning itself with the East (BRICS) over the West. This wave of bad press is the officiation of the divorce
This wave of bad press is because the Indian government allegedly sent assassins to murder a Canadian in Canada. No one actually cares about BRICS, it's India playing both sides to carve out what they want in negotiations, like they always have. Sending government assasins to murder people in other countries is guaranteed to get you bad press, it's that simple.
India is only aligned with India, and Moddi is only aligned with Modi. It's a founding member of BRICS, founded in 2009. It'll play BRICS against the West and vice-versa. That game is not new to India.
You're hearing this because India assassinated a Canadian citizen on Canadian soil. You're also hearing this because Modi's dictatorship and increasing Hindu extremeist domestic terrorism cannot be hidden or ignored any longer.
Remember when there was some shit going down in India like burning rape victims and other messed up shit weekly in the news cycle? Well it's all still happening, all the same stuff but somehow ppl let it go because India needs to be protected.
Same thing with scam call centers that prey on the most vulnerable of the west.
Seriously, India is fucked and not ready to be taken seriously but we all kinda have to because it's a big country. Disappointing.
And then there's the question about how Western nations should react to the cocaine on a plane allegation. /s
Edit: added the /s, since I guess the article describing the allegation as "disinformation" didn't make it clear.
Using people not open affiliated to his political party to caste scurrilous & defamatory allegations on his opponents is one of Modi's modus operandi. It makes his opponent go on the back-foot while Modi can maintain plausible denial over the allegations. The puppet who carries out the hit job gets rewarded for it or is often threatened to do it.
In this case, the puppet is Ex-Sudan Ambassador Deepak Vohra and Modi govt has used India's federal investigative agency, the CBI, to threaten him with in a case of alleged financial bungling in Indian diplomatic missions.
Mafia tactics are predictable, and 9.5 years of Medi regime has taught Indians to look behind the smoke & mirrors to spot the puppet strings.
This is the same transition that the West had on China a few years ago. When it becomes clear that you won't become another puppet of the West and want to carve out your own interests, the West immediately flips on you.
Ok dork, I'm sure we'd let Britain assassinate all the anti-monarchists they feel like.
britain assassinated its fair share of people abroad in its history
So you'd be chill with a bunch of white bogans moving to China then marching down the street while chanting crap about how they want a Christian nation? You're fine with the USA assassinating foreigners who say stuff they dont like? Are you on board with the Bush/Trump era anti-islamic oppression?
