How can anyone blame 'The Messiah'?

 In 2018, Vivan Marwaha started researching, "How do young Indians in the country's small towns and cities view their place in India's future?" Hindustan Times (HT). "Economic anxiety, due to the lack of stable, well-paying private sector jobs, is the biggest roadblock for the success of not just Indian millennials but the future of the entire country." "And during my research, I met countless young Indians who had devoted years of their lives to studying for the Union Public Services Commission exams, state-level services, or running from pillar to post trying to find any employment in the government, simply because it is stable." "They see problems in the world around them and have some ideas on how to fix them, but they don't see a political environment that will allow these ideas to become reality. The dirty nature of politics, with its backroom dealing and dynastic tendencies, not only discourages qualified people from running for office, but also leaves millions dejected with a system they have come to accept as status quo," The Wire. The Covid epidemic has increased their stress. "The findings are part of Deloitte's Millennial and Gen Z Survey 2021 for India. It states that stress and anxiety levels among Indian millennials (49 percent) is higher than the global average, and that Indian Gen Zs feel as anxious and stressed as their global average," Indian Express (TIE). "Concerns for welfare of their family, job/career prospects, and long-term financial future are the primary causes of stress for both the groups." "Technology is an intrinsic part of the lives of Gen Z (anyone born between 1995 and 2012) and according to a 2019 Bloomberg report, Gen Z made up for 32% of the global population. India's Gen Z population currently stands at 472 million and as per a report, on average, an Indian Gen Z spends eight hours per day online," Fortune India. Curiously, "Voting data show that Indian millennials are the most supportive voters of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and Prime Minister Narendra Modi." Modi "has an approval rating of 70 percent, which is the highest among 13 global leaders polled in the survey conducted by The Morning Consult." HT. "The devastation caused by the second wave claimed millions of lives and caused widespread suffering and anguish," Bharat Express. "Yet many urban internet users do not want to blame their state or the Union government for the devastating tragedy that unfolded before their eyes, according to data from the latest round of the YouGov-TBEN-CPR Millennial Survey." Support for the BJP has remained unchanged. No surprise that, "The BJP's income in 2019-20, and election year, jumped almost 50% to Rs 3,623 crore (Rs 36.23 billion) from Rs 2,410 crore (Rs 24.10 billion) in 2018-19, while its total expenditure rose by 64% to Rs 1,651 crore from Rs 1,005 crore over the same period." Times of India (TOI). Rs 2,555 crore came from electoral bonds, which are anonymous gifts from unknown individuals, TIE. Therefore, extremely shady. On the other hand, "The 'Mood of the Nation' survey done by the India Today magazine has found that Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who until last year was the first choice as next prime minister for 66% of the country, has seen a slip to 24%," TheWire. How truthful our news agencies are depends on how brave they are and on their confidence in withstanding an onslaught from various government agencies on completely fictitious charges. "Tax authorities in India raided several offices of one of the world's biggest-selling newspapers," CNN. The newspaper, Dainik Bhaskar, "shocked India with its reporting of dead bodies in the river Ganges during the brutal second wave of the Covid-19 pandemic this spring." Income Tax officers recently 'surveyed' office of Newsclick and Newslaundry and took away documents and phones of staff, DNA. Modi's birthday will be celebrated over 3 weeks, during which140 million bags and 50 million postcards will be distributed thanking him for helping the poor, wrote Tavleen Singh. Videos will show him as "Messiah of the poor". It's not enough that they are poor. They have to be humiliated as well.
