'Colloquially Speaking, BJP is Fascist. And More Insidious Than Indira's Emergency' I Karan Thapar

In an outspoken and hard-hitting interview, Pratap Bhanu Mehta, former Vice-Chancellor of Ashoka University and one of contemporary India’s most highly regarded political thinkers have said the Modi government is “colloquially speaking fascist”. He says even though the government is committed to winning elections to secure power “in every other way it ticks the checklist of fascist qualities”. After specifying in detail what these are, Mr Mehta concludes that “colloquially speaking this is a fascist government and it is, therefore, not incorrect to use that term”. #KaranThapar #PratapBhanuMehta
