"[Trump] relied on his skills as a rabble rouser by saying outrageous things on social media to control the news cycle. Modi’s methods of control are far more structural. In India, most of the national media works under a powerful set of informal restrictions instituted by Modi’s . As a result, the ruling party is not only the source of many news cycles, it also controls their distribution"

Gaming the news cycle, the secret weapon of Modi's BJP

Sanatan Dharma: An Ideology or the Entire Hindu Community?

Even V.D. Savarkar, the most influential ideologue of Hindutva, hardly conflated ‘sanatan dharma’ with the entire Hindu community, unlike the BJP's position on the current controversy over the term.

Not Hindutva, not welfare – gaming the news cycle might be the BJP’s strongest weapon

As India’s entire mass media dropped everything from the civil war in Manipur to upcoming byepolls to discuss this subject, conversations ranged from decolonialisation to Hindutva. Ironically, by the end of the week, the Bharatiya Janata Party itself was trying to calm down the furore it had itself sparked off.

Daman, Run By A Modi Aide, Latest To Deal With Trauma Of Forced Eviction

Appointed by the union government, the administrator of the union territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu, Praful Patel, ordered two demolition drives over in Daman in 2023 to remove houses deemed to be ‘illegal encroachments’ on government land, latest in a spate of demolitions in BJP-run or controlled state and union territories. Some said they had lived there for generations and paid taxes for decades. Some homes were built under the PM’s flagship housing programme. Officials said most were ‘immigrants’ living in rented homes.

India’s prime minister uses the G20 summit to advertise his global reach and court voters at home

Ahead of the summit, historical monuments, airports and major landmarks are projecting this year’s G20 logo — an image of a globe inside a lotus, using the colors of the Indian flag. The opposition says it is no coincidence that the lotus is also the election symbol of Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party.

I started using Sanatana Dharma to stop Sangh Parivar groups from twisting my words as an attack on Hindu beliefs: Thirumavalavan

While Sports Minister Udhayanidhi Stalin’s recent comments about “eradicating Sanatana Dharma” have snowballed into a political controversy, it was VCK founder Thol. Thirumavalavan who had enshrined Sanatana Dharma in the lexicon of Tamil Nadu’s political discourse over the past five years.
