Another man lynched on the suspicion of being a Bangladeshi: Who will be the next target of Modi’s hatemongering?

A muslim labourer in Madhubani, Bihar was lynched on the allegation of being a Bangladeshi. This is in a series of mob attacks on Indian citizens on suspicion of being a Bangladeshi. A few months ago, during the state election in Bihar, PM Modi had extensively campaigned on the issue of “infiltrators” and accused the opposition parties (not in power in the state or the center) of sheltering them.

On 17 December, Ram Narayan Baghel, a migrant worker from Chhattisgarh, was lynched in Kerala on suspicion of being a Bangladeshi. A week later, another migrant worker from West Bengal was lynched in Odisha on suspicion of being a Bangladeshi.

Meanwhile, PM Modi and the BJP have been raising the bogie of "ghuspaithiya" in every state that goes to election next. During the 2024 General Elections, Modi claimed that the opposition parties wanted to snatch the wealth of Indians and distribute it among the infiltrators. He repeated the same claim during the state elections in Maharashtra, Jharkhand, and Bihar, claiming that the opposition parties are sheltering the infiltrators. The focus of these claims have now shifted to West Bengal and Assam, two states going to elections in 2026.

This is notwithstanding the fact that BJP is in power at the centre since 2014, with Modi at the helm, and is responsible for the border security. The ruling party also has governments in 21 states.

Yet, it has repeatedly targeted the opposition for illegal immigration. BJP social media handles have posted hateful images blaming the opposition parties for the illegal immigration. Yet, beside the rhetoric, the Modi Government has not published a single evidence of this large-scale immigration and demographic change.

Modi’s dog-whistle has created an atmosphere of frenzy across India. Fearmongering has become the national agenda of the ruling party. The rhetoric of ghuspaithiya is used, election after election, to keep the people scared and agitated. No matter if people are lynched, or wrongly imprisoned.

"Dear Umar, I think of your words on bitterness often, and the importance of not letting it consume one's self. It was a pleasure to meet your parents. We are all thinking of you." — Zohran Mamdani writes to jailed activist Umar Khalid

What one book, through the inclusion of which in Indian Curriculum would change the country for the better?

My answer: Voltaire's Candide. 100 odd pages of pure satire that will lay bare and destroy the follies of Religion, Casteism, Dogmatism, Fanaticism and all those things that one would usually point to India to complain.

Your answer?

In Rajendra Nagar, Bareilly, a boy and a girl were having coffee at a cafe when Bajrang Dal goons, accompanied by the police, raided the establishment, creating chaos throughout the cafe while accusing the couple of "love jihad." Slogans of "Jai Shri Ram" were chanted.

Curious to know the history of communism in Kerala

I had been reading about the history of Communism in Kerala. Was fascinated a little, Compared to many other states - this political ideology seems unique to Kerala. I felt the communist origins might have an influence in Kerala being a state with high social and human development index.

1. What made the communist ideology a success if you go back to Kerala history?
2. Does the present Left fronts still have communist ideology or they are just a popular support base political parties which necessarily are not communist in nature?

Curious to know.

"They used to rag my child because she was SC, they used to call out her SC caste to abuse." Mr. Vikram, father of Pallavi (recently deceased), his pain will never become country's pain. Leprosy of caste has made society poisonous. How many more Rohit Vemula, Payal Tadvi, and Pallavi?

Kapil Mishra gave an open threat of violence and an ultimatum to the DCP standing beside him; Whereas Umar Khalid wasn't even in Delhi during the riots—Yet Umar remains behind bars for over 5 yrs without a trial, while Kapil Mishra is now a cabinet minister in the Delhi Govt.
