आजच BBC हिंदीने सत्ताधारी नेते घरी येऊन गेल्यावर काय घडते हे दाखवले आहे. मोदी घरी आले. न मागता कर्ज माथी मारले. एजंट्सनी वसूलीचा तगादा लावला. आता असे वाटतेय की मोदी घरी आले नसते तर बरे झाले असते. ज्या घरी भेट दिली त्यांच्या या भावना आहेत. सध्या आपल्याकडेही असाच इव्हेंट सुरु आहे.

Everyone is tested on their 'Indian-ness'. And everyone is now encouraged to participate in this odious business.

We have police station wise census reports, NFHS, and all other data available with the Govt of India and its ministries since 1951 onwards. But of course nothing can be trusted. So let public unleash their biases and prejudices on minorities.
