We are living in uncertain times. Dictator is at the helm, Opposition leaders are being intimidated, media is being silenced, farmers are in distress

We are living in uncertain times. Dictator is at the helm, Opposition leaders are being intimidated, media is being silenced, farmers are in distress

Never in the history of India the country came to such a sorry pass. Opposition leaders are being bundled out for speaking the truth and truth only. They are being silenced by sleuths of central agencies and they are being raided now and then. Never in the history of India the public has been intimidated if they express an opinion that is entirely different from the ruling regime. You can't have an opinion of your own and if you have an opinion you pay the price. Central agencies like IT, ED and CBI are being misused and they are being sent to the premises of those who speak up for the masses and farmers. Never in the history of India central agencies were employed with such powerful machinery to destroy the opposition firmament and public who hold an opinion. This destructive mindset conveys that different institutions would be crushed with lethal blow if they have an opinion of their own. 

Never in the history of India media lived in such fear and intimidation. They can't have a voice of their own and they are expected to be voice of ruling regime. They can't cover stories of opposition parties as they have specific instructions that they have to toe a line set by ruling regime, and any event of opposition parties should be boycotted. This dictatorial tendency is costing country dear and people by and large have a disdain for this regime that lets loose sleuths of central agencies for reasons that are inexplicable. For how long we would live in this dictatorial template and say yes to the dictator. The Lakhimpur Kheri incident in Uttar Pradesh clearly shows the public loathes this regime where farmers were run over by politico's convoy and as noted by a gentleman the Lakhimpur incident would prove waterloo for this regime. Media Houses which speak up for the farmers and opposition parties are chained from carrying out their duties/responsibilities and they are harassed now and then. Never in the history of India we had a regime which crushed opposition, media and judiciary with brutal force. The people have a disdain for this regime and they regret for giving it a mandate which was solely employed to crush dissent and divergent opinion. Minorities including Sikhs and Muslims have had a turbulent journey in this regime. The story of farmers is no different.
