India: Pseudo people

Talking too much about India is not Indianess, but correcting the politicians, questioning the elected members, securing the social fabric, saving the democracy and reinstating the secular character are the Indianess.

 While it's important to recognize that political and religious ideologies can be diverse, it appears that some individuals or groups associated with Hindutva, a political ideology in India that promotes an exclusive Hindu identity, have been propagating false narratives from 1925. 

The question here pertains to why people might not be standing up for justice in response to these alleged fake narratives?

There could be several reasons for this phenomenon:

Lack of awareness: Many people may not be informed about the full scope of the issue or the extent of the false narratives being propagated.

Media influence: The media can play a powerful role in shaping public opinion, and biased or one-sided coverage might contribute to the acceptance of false narratives.

Confirmation bias: People tend to seek out information that confirms their existing beliefs or biases, which can make it difficult for them to recognize or challenge false narratives.
    

Fear of social consequences: Some individuals might be hesitant to speak out against false narratives due to fear of backlash, harassment, or being ostracized by their community.
    

Political motivations: Political agendas or affiliations may influence people's willingness to stand up for justice, particularly if doing so would conflict with their own beliefs or interests.


It's crucial for individuals to be aware of the sources and motives behind the information they consume and to promote critical thinking and fact-checking. Encouraging open dialogue and education can also be vital in fostering a society where people actively stand for justice and challenge false narratives.

      B ecoming the world’s most populous nation allows India to burnish its credentials as a global economic and political heavyweight. With a population that is much younger than those of China, the US and the EU, there will be renewed interest in India’s potential to be a beacon of liberal values. The west is eager to draw a democratic giant into its orbit. China and India will together account for about half of all global growth this year. But India risks emulating its bigger northern neighbour’s economic ascent under tight political control by a dominant authoritarian party. Hindu nationalism in India is writing an epitaph for the country’s experiment with multi-ethnic secular democracy. Narendra Modi’s Bharatiya Janata party (BJP) has weakened institutions meant to keep the state both transparent and accountable. Information is censored, civil society hounded and protests suppressed. It is absurd that opposition leaders have been targeted to the ...

A Conversation

 Person A: Hey, I've been hearing some concerning things about your recent actions. There are rumors that you've been spreading false narratives and deceiving the society. Can you explain what's going on? Person B (Cheater): Oh, come on, those are just rumors. You know how people love to talk. I'm just sharing alternative viewpoints and shedding light on hidden truths that the mainstream doesn't want you to know. Person A: Alternative viewpoints are one thing, but there's a fine line between that and spreading outright false information. I've seen evidence that suggests you've been manipulating facts to fit your narrative. Why would you do that? Person B: Look, the truth isn't always black and white. Sometimes you have to bend the facts a little to get people to see the bigger picture. The society has been blinded for too long by the established norms. I'm just trying to wake them up and make them question things. Person A: I understand the impor...
