Sacralization of Outrage and How to Break Free
When rage is combined with religious and ideological absolutism, avenues of freedoms vanish. Dissent is met with ruthless subjugation and every atrocity is covered up by ambivalence. Let's deep dive.
One of the success stories of the first term of the Modi government was its outreach to the Indian diaspora and a gala that used to be an unmistakable part of almost each of the Prime Minister’s trips abroad—all planned and executed by the BJP. And in the run-up to the recent general elections, the outreach manifested itself in a big way. As Vijay Chauthaiwale, the man who heads the BJP’s foreign affairs cell, told SNI’s Editor-in-Chief Nitin A. Gokhale, NRIs made 2 million calls to India to canvass for Modi, around 700 actually came down to India to campaign actively, of which about of 100 have been invited for Modi’s swearing-in.
