hi can I write a short letter please
Dear Prime Minister of India,
I hope this letter finds you deeply disturbed.
It should be difficult for you to be otherwise, given what India is going through right now. It breaks me to see that the vibrant, pluralistic India I grew up in has now cascaded into a cauldron of chaos, into a country whose democratic foundations are tottering – threatened by sectarian hate-mongering under your watch.
When you became prime minister of India in 2014, I was a politically ignorant teenager; and yet, I was heartened by your rise to the most powerful office in our nation. Riding the wave of change, your words persuaded me to believe that you would unshackle India from the complacency of dynastic entitlement, cleanse it from the stench of bureaucratic corruption, modernise its economy, and enlarge its indigenous impact.
I was no supporter of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), but I was a believer in you. It filled me with pride to see a prime minister who projected a strong image of my country, dazzled audiences with his charismatic oratory, strove relentlessly to cope with the burden of his mantle; and who, above all, stood for a great story – the story of a man from humble beginnings, who marched through the corridors of power with equanimity, proving that in the great land of India, nothing is impossible.
Almost six years later, I am a politically conscious citizen of India, aspiring to be a journalist and pursuing a degree to that end in the United Kingdom. Today, I feel dispirited and betrayed by your words; your rhetoric, far from inspiring confidence in me, makes me concerned. The economy is languishing, employment is stagnating, your promise of achhe din, flanked by development and growth, is nowhere in sight.
But that is not why I am writing to you today. I feel compelled to write this because the social fabric of my motherland is changing beyond belief. Not only have dissent and freedom of speech been squashed, but the secular harmony, that was stitched into India’s framework since Independence, is being torn apart by those who profess their allegiance to you and your party
In 2020, you now represent a different story – the story of a man in the most important position in India, who has let his silence condone one atrocity after another, fraternising with the US president while the Indian capital goes up in flames. Prime minister, you have proved yet again that in the great land of India, nothing truly is impossible.
For all my complaints, I understand that not even you, with your chhappan inch ki chhati, can be a one-man army. India’s current crisis certainly cannot be blamed entirely on you. But when you consent to spearhead the projection of your regime, when the Government of India becomes synonymous with Narendra Modi, when it is your face adorning every election campaign, when it is your voice celebrating military achievements as your own, when it is your image that underpins India’s domestic and international identity, you must be the first person held accountable.
And in holding your power to account, bear with me as I ask you what the few journalists fortunate enough to have interviewed you will never do.
Why has your government’s focus been on the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) at a time when the faltering economy is a far bigger concern for India than illegal immigration? Why has your dispensation not considered providing refuge to oppressed Muslims belonging to minority sects in the Muslim majority countries identified under the CAA? If the goal of the CAA is, indeed, to grant asylum to persecuted individuals from India’s neighbouring countries, why was Myanmar – home to the Rohingya Muslims, who are among the most persecuted communities in the world – left out from the purview
Why were the police inexcusably passive in tackling the riots in Delhi? Why have you not personally condemned or suspended members of your party who have clearly instigated violent behaviour with their inflammatory speeches at a time when students have been detained on charges of sedition for utterances that prove harmless in comparison? Having integrated Jammu and Kashmir – without any consultation with the local leadership – to the Indian union last August, how do you intend to restore a semblance of normalcy to the Valley?
Why are foreign nationals studying in India being forced to leave the country for participating or sharing content pertaining to the anti-CAA protests?
The questions are endless, prime minister, and so is your complicity. But I need not have outlined all the aforementioned questions separately. I could have simply asked you one simple question that encapsulates them all: what is your vision of the Hindu Rashtra?
I will you be my friend
