Modi’s a Dictator & His Return Would be a Disaster: Finance Minister’s Husband, Parakala Prabhakar

"Of course, Modi's a dictator; he's dragging India back to the dark ages; his return to power would be a disaster for India": Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman's husband, the author and economist Parakala Prabhakar
...........................................
In a devastating critique of the 10 years of Narendra Modi’s prime ministership, the Finance Minister’s husband, the author and economist Parakala Prabhakar, has said: “Of course, Modi is a dictator” adding “our democracy is in crisis, our social fabric is torn, our economy is in peril and we are being dragged back to the dark ages”. Dr. Parakala says “a return to power of the present government would spell disaster for India”.
However, Dr. Parakala believes this is unlikely to happen and also adds that Narendra Modi and the BJP will struggle to get more than 220-230 seats in the forthcoming elections. Explaining his electoral analysis more fully, Dr. Parakala says Modi and the BJP could lose 50-60 seats in north India and perhaps 10-12 in the south (that is after taking into account any seats they win in Andhra). Dr. Parakala also says that if Modi is restricted to 230 seats he neither has the talent nor the people to help win allies to cobble together a majority and, therefore, he is destined to sit in the Opposition.
In a 45-minute interview to Karan Thapar for The Wire, Dr. Parakala says that if, however, Modi wins a third term “what is happening in Manipur is likely to happen in every state in the country”. He says “if it doesn’t fall in line the entire opposition leadership could be sent to jail”.
Speaking in some detail about the situation facing India’s 200 million Muslims if Narendra Modi wins a third term, Dr. Parakala says they would face “tiraskar”, which he translates as “rejection”. Dr. Parakala foresees a two-stage process. First, Muslims would be reduced to a subordinate status as second class citizens but then they could actually be pushed out of the country or forced to leave.
In fact, Dr. Parakala says what happens to Muslims could also, in some shape or form, happen to all minorities. When he was asked if he meant not just Christians but also Buddhists, Sikhs and Jains, his answer was “why not?”.
Asked what is likely to be history’s verdict on the 10 years of Narendra Modi’s prime ministership, Dr. Parakala said: “He has set India back in terms of economy 20-25 years, in terms of polity to pre-independence days and in terms of social fabric back to 1818”.
Dr. Parakala said the big difference between Indira Gandhi’s Emergency of 75-77 and the situation that could follow a third Modi victory is that the Emergency was a result of one woman’s concern with her future whereas post-2024 it will be a project to make India a Hindu Rashtra and reverse its federalism. Therefore, whilst Indira Gandhi’s Emergency ended after 21 months the “disaster” that possibly looms ahead for India will be a lot more difficult to reverse.
I am only giving you the big broad points made by Dr. Parakala. There’s an awful lot more in this interview, both in terms of analysis and news, which I am leaving you to find out for yourself by watching the interview. I do not want to inaccurately paraphrase or precis Dr. Parakala. You should hear him in his own words by watching the full interview.

Hitler didn't become a dictator overnight, he did just that, controlled the media, made major amendments to the constitution, led the Germans to believe that they were victims of the minority, showed the dream of a greater Germany, made propaganda films, He didn't just wake up one day and proclaim himself the supreme leader of Germany. read my friend, look into it with an open mind

Thank you Dr. Prabhakar for speaking the truth.

Irony is, there was a shootout in a village called Heirok between the two warring communities, in which 3 person from my community was injured and hospitalised. If this is peace, God only knows what war is like. We want peaceful existence, not killings and hatred.

From the various articles and videos on Manipur I understand that there has been ethnic conflicts in Manipur for decades which the Congress couldn't resolve in its decades of rule there. Now they expect BJP to wave a magic wand n do magic. I understand the home minister Amit Shah was camping in Manipur at the time n doing his best to settle it. We've different departments in govt to handle appropriate issues n it's not necessary for the PM to be present. I also understand that the locals in Manipur are happy with the BJP's development schemes for Manipur which was never there during the Congress rule.

उनको ये बातें अपनी पत्नी की बातों से या हाव-भाव से पता चला होगा, कि तानाशाह तथा उसके गुंडों के मन में क्या चल रहा है | उनकी पत्नी इन सब झंझटों में नहीं पड़ना चाहती, शायद इसीलिए पैसे की कमी का बहाना बनाकर अगला चुनाव लड़ने से मना कर चुकी हैं | यह बहुत ही गंभीर बात है |
