> This whole about useless opposition is a myth. He and the BJP have systematically destroyed independent media and that has ensured that we will not even know if the opposition is up to any good…
I literally cited 2 clips of one of the most prolific anti-Modi journalists
Not to mention NDTV, the wire, etc are all alive and well. I would've believed your media censorship argument in 2014 but it has been 8+ years and Modi loses state elections regularly
> No opposition wants to stand up because if you do you will have a million cases filed against you and of course incur the wrath of the IT cell
This is straight up just a lie. Especially because every party has an IT cell

NDTV literally got bought by Adani, who happens to be Modi's cheerleader

What is your point? They haven't suddenly become pro-Modi since Adani bought them.
More importantly if you think Adani cares about Modi beyond his business-friendliness you are delusional. He will use Modi and go find some other candidate when Modi's days are over, it has nothing to do with right or left wing politics, just money.

Dude, you are a Modi fanboy, just keep sucking his dick. It is because of people like you that India is a shit hole of a country.

You are just playing semantics at this point. You very well know that this person meant CBI raids and not IT cells. Don't worry though, I have listed it out in my reply so that others who do not know about it can educate themselves. 95% of the CBI (central bureau of investigation) has been on the minority opposition during the last years a huge jump from a new even 60% during the previous Congress government time when there was a larger opposition than today.

Maybe putting words in someone's mouth is acceptable in your household but it makes no sense in mine.
If someone says IT cells, I will talk about IT cells. If someone says CBI raids I will talk about CBI raids.
If someone talks about China would you be so dense as to say "you very well know..." and then start talking about Taiwan?
It is only semantics to you because you want to shift goalposts to CBI raids instead of starting a whole new conversation around it which I'd be happy to address.

I will address this later
