The desperate attempt by liberals to turn Rahul Gandhi’s expulsion as “death of democracy” globally

Have you ever pondered existential questions like life and death, hell or heaven, or the concept of rebirth? Well, it seems that not only Hinduism but also our beloved friends in the leftist ecosystem and their infamous international toolkit gangs have the answers for you.

Apparently, Indian civilization’s best asset, that is, democracy, faces the dire threat of turning into anarchy. And the best judges and doctors for the health of democracy reside in the White House, at 10 Downing Street, 12 Tughlaq Lane, or Lutyens Zone.

For these ‘liberals’, every sunny morning, democracy gets resurrected thanks to their untiring efforts and cruelly put to death by the fascist Modi government. This cycle has been repeated so many times that it only lags behind the number of attempts that this ecosystem has made for the re-launch or re-relaunch of Rahul Gandhi or the seven lives of Undertaker. Well, the latest episode of this reality drama show is not limited to the usual suspects or a specific territorial boundary.

The turn around: Now foreign masters will peddle the locally curated narrative.

The first public display of the coherent working of the national and international players on the left side of the political spectrum was witnessed during the so-called farmer protest. At that time, the mistaken tweet by “environmentalist” Greta Thunberg removed the veil from the toolkit gang.

Since then, George Soros, the New York Times, the Washington Post, the Hindenburg, or the BBC have been constantly setting the narrative for their Indian lackeys. Through these toolkits, they want to corner the Modi government and declare that India is no longer a democratically run nation.

However, the tide seems to have turned. And this is why the leftist cabal is openly pleading with their foreign masters to save them. They want to create the same narrative with a different opening line: “trampling the voices of opposition” with the supposed example of Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification. From actors to journalists, Indian politicians to international media houses, and US Representatives, all have claimed that Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification is an open proof of the “death of Indian democracy.”

एक वक़्त में ऐसी खबरें अंतरराष्ट्रीय अख़बारों में russia, turkey etc . के बारे में पढ़ने को मिलती थी। आज भारत उन देशों में शामिल है जहां लोकतांत्रिक तरीक़े से चुनी गई सरकार और उनकी सरकारी व्यवस्था ख़ुद लोकतंत्र बर्बाद कर रही है। #RahulGandhi https://t.co/j1fL0Tvi8i

It’s very easy to make speeches at seminars but India’s Supreme Court is complicit in the erosion of civil liberties. The weakening of the institutions of the media and judiciary will be remembered

The expulsion of Rahul Gandhi from parliament is a deep betrayal of Gandhian philosophy and India’s deepest values. This is not what my grandfather sacrificed years in jail for. @narendramodi you have the power to reverse this decision for the the sake of Indian democracy. https://t.co/h85qlYMn1J

The disqualification of @RahulGandhi as MP before he could go for an appeal is death knell for democracy.

Democracy has died in India more times than Tom Cruise has in Edge of Tomorrow.
A 50yo child said something that came to bite him the ass. But let's forget it's a country of 1.4 billion and cry death of democracy while bowing our heads in front of an autocratic family.

Debunking their claim

Now, first of all, it is claimed that Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification was done to silence the opposition. Well, how can someone in their right mind stop his adversary from going downhill? Rahul Gandhi, in almost all political discussions, is deduced as an asset for the BJP and its biggest star campaigner.

The fact is that Rahul Gandhi knew his weak legal standing in the case beforehand and that he messed up big time by making a disparaging, sweeping generalisation of a community. Starting in March, Mr. Gandhi had started to prepare the pitch for it. Congress and many legal experts are now arguing that defamation cases should be civil in nature. This was the only plausible legal defence for Rahul Gandhi to avoid conviction and sentence.

Not just now; Rahul Gandhi had pointed out this aspect in his Cambridge address. Back then, he claimed that many cases levelled against him should have been civil in nature rather than criminal.

In his Cambridge address, Rahul Gandhi said, “I have a number of criminal liability cases for things that should under no circumstances be criminal liability cases. That’s what we are trying to defend.” Well, Mr. Gandhi should answer the basic question: has Congress always taken this stand on decriminalising defamation cases, or is this not pure opportunism?

Another thing that defeats the liberal argument is that the liberal cabal started this hoax of the death of democracy even before Mr. Gandhi exhausted all the legal remedies put in place by the Indian democracy. The long-drawn judicial process in India is such that it allows thousands of criminals to let go just to be sure that no innocent gets unduly punished. Then why not prove innocence first and get public support to change the party’s dying fortune? This desperate cabal is crying hoarse, which reminds me of the Hindi proverb “Nakhun kata ke Shaheed kehlana,” which means claiming martyrdom by sacrificing a nail.

Instances that highlight what is an assault on democracy

Now come closer, Mr. Gandhi, and I will highlight the instances that really posed a great threat to Indian democracy.

The first and most blatant example of strangulating democracy was the horrendous imposition of emergency by your grandmother, Indira Gandhi, after the Allahabad Court indictment. Opposition leaders were jailed, the media was gagged, and the constitution was altered to legalise the dastardly politics of appeasement through the addition of secularism.
The second was when your party imposed an extra-constitutional body to create a monarchy kind of governance, and everybody knows who was the de facto head calling the shots at that time.
Third, it was when you undermined the authority of PM Manmohan Singh by tearing down the ordinance that ironically could have saved you today, and that too when Dr Singh was on a foreign visit to the US and your act became the reason for his humiliation.
Fourth, when your grandmother and former PM Indira Gandhi dethroned legally elected state governments by imposing President rule even for not following SOPs. Former PM Indira Gandhi imposed President’s Rule not once, not twice, but 50 times.

What this cabal needs to do is stop cribbing about anything and stop indulging in criminality, and instead focus on the reasons that make them unelectable.
