Until recently it was widely believed that the people of India were satisfied with the performance of their government, although there was plenty of evidence pointing to the massive poverty in the country. The recent country-wide protests in the country have exposed the real face of India.
The most surprising thing that we learnt from the protests was that the people no longer believe that Pakistan is responsible for the problems the country is facing. The BJP has won all elections claiming that it was the only party capable of saving Hindus from rapacious Muslims. The young people we saw in the protests ridiculed Modi for demonizing the minorities. They even refuse to believe that India defeated Pakistan in last year's attacks. This is a refreshing change and if the Cockroach Party is able to gain power in India, or even if it is able to become part of a coalition government, there may finally be peace between India and Pakistan. After twelve years in power, Modi can finally be removed, provided of course that all opposition parties unite.
