The bjp government introduced the ucc bill in Uttarakhand which has made it mandatory for live in couples to register with the government and a copy of the registration will be sent to respective families. It also added the father as a first class legal heir for inheritance of property, encroaching upon the the right of the mother, wife, daughter (the actual victims of patriarchy, who most likely did not have any social right to gain access to financial independence or inheritance from other family members) to accommodate the father, who more than likely than not already has financial freedom and ownership rights over land property. Moving on, they removed the Muslim personal law, which guaranteed the rights of the daughter in a fixed inheritance percentage. Not to mention the whole act is modelled after hindu personal laws and demanding other religions to bend according to it is inherently regressive no matter how progressive the law on paper looks to be. So should I just bang my head against the wall right now and be done with it or watch as the bjp government slowly sets fire to all our lives?

definitely a longer piece so these excerpts are far from showcasing everything this piece has to offer! read the whole thing on your own time, and in general, just check out jewish currents, an educational, leftist, anti-zionist jewish magazine!
Every August, the township of Edison, New Jersey—where one in five residents is of Indian origin—holds a parade to celebrate India’s Independence Day. In 2022, a long line of floats rolled through the streets, decked out in images of Hindu deities and colorful advertisements for local businesses. People cheered from the sidelines or joined the cavalcade, dancing to pulsing Bollywood music. In the middle of the procession came another kind of vehicle: A wheel loader, which looks like a small bulldozer, rumbled along the route bearing an image of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi aloft in its bucket. For South Asian Muslims, the meaning of the addition was hard to miss. A few months earlier, during the month of Ramadan, Indian government officials had sent bulldozers into Delhi’s Muslim neighborhoods, where they damaged a mosque and leveled homes and storefronts. The Washington Post called the bulldozer “a polarizing symbol of state power under Narendra Modi,” whose ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) is increasingly enacting a program of Hindu supremacy and Muslim subjugation. In the weeks after the parade, one Muslim resident of Edison, who is of Indian origin, told The New York Times that he understood the bulldozer much as Jews would a swastika or Black Americans would a Klansman’s hood. Its inclusion underscored the parade’s other nods to the ideology known as Hindutva, which seeks to transform India into an ethnonationalist Hindu state. The event’s grand marshal was the BJP’s national spokesperson, Sambit Patra, who flew in from India. Other invitees were affiliated with the Hindu Swayamsevak Sangh (HSS), the international arm of the Hindu nationalist paramilitary force Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), of which Modi is a longtime member.
...
On December 6th, 1992, a mob of 150,000 Hindus, many of whom were affiliated with the paramilitary group the RSS, gathered at the Babri Masjid, a centuries-old mosque that is one of the most contested sacred sites in the world. Over the preceding century, far-right Hindus had claimed that the mosque, located in the North Indian city of Ayodhya, was built not only upon the site where the Hindu deity Ram was born but atop the foundations of a demolished Hindu temple. The RSS and its affiliates had been campaigning to, in the words of a BJP minister, correct the “historical mistake” of the mosque’s existence, a task the mob completed that December afternoon. “They climbed on top of the domes and tombs,” one witness told NPR. “They were carrying hammers and these three-pronged spears from Hindu scripture. They started hacking at the mosque. By night, it was destroyed.” The demolition sparked riots that lasted months and killed an estimated 2,000 people across the country.
The destruction of the Babri Masjid was arguably Hindu nationalism’s greatest triumph to date. Since its establishment in 1925, the RSS—whose founders sought what one of them called a “military regeneration of the Hindus,” inspired by Mussolini’s Black Shirts and Nazi “race pride”—had been a marginal presence in India: Its members held no elected office, and it was temporarily designated a terrorist organization after one of its affiliates shot and killed Mohandas Gandhi in 1948. But the leveling of the Babri Masjid activated a virulently ethnonationalist base and paved the way for three decades of Hindutva ascendance. In 1998, the BJP formed a government for the first time; in 2014, it returned to power, winning a staggering 282 out of 543 seats in parliament and propelling Modi into India’s highest office. Since then, journalist Samanth Subramanian notes, all of the country’s governmental and civil society institutions “have been pressured to fall in line” with a Hindutva agenda—a phenomenon on full display in 2019, when the Supreme Court of India awarded the land where the Babri Masjid once stood to a government run by the very Hindu nationalists who illegally destroyed it. (Modi has since laid a foundation stone for a new Ram temple in Ayodhya, an event that a prominent RSS activist celebrated with a billboard in Times Square.) The Ayodhya verdict came in the same year that Modi stripped constitutional protections from residents of the Muslim-majority region of Kashmir and passed a law that creates a fast track to citizenship for non-Muslim immigrants, laying the groundwork for a religious test for Indian nationality. Under Modi, “the Hinduization of India is almost complete,” as journalist Yasmeen Serhan has written in The Atlantic.
To achieve its goals, the RSS has worked via a dense network of organizations that call themselves the “Sangh Parivar” (“joint family”) of Hindu nationalism. The BJP, which holds more seats in the Indian parliament than every other party combined, is the Sangh’s electoral face. The Vishwa Hindu Parishad (VHP) is the movement’s cultural wing, responsible for “Hinduizing” Indian society at the grassroots level. The Bajrang Dal is the project’s militant arm, which enforces Hindu supremacy through violence. Dozens of other organizations contribute money and platforms to the Sangh. The sheer number of groups affords the Sangh what human rights activist Pranay Somayajula has referred to as a “tactical politics of plausible deniability,” in which the many degrees of separation between the governing elements and their vigilante partners shields the former from backlash. This explains how, until 2018, the CIA could describe the VHP and Bajrang Dal as “militant religious organizations”—a designation that applies to non-electoral groups exerting political pressure—even as successive US governments have maintained a warm relationship with their parliamentary counterpart, the BJP.
...
The most extreme figures in the Hindu nationalist and Zionist movements were especially frank about the nature of their partnership: “Whether you call them Palestinians, Afghans, or Pakistanis, the root of the problem for Hindus and Jews is Islam,” Bajrang Dal affiliate Rohit Vyasmaan told The New York Times of his friendly relationship with Mike Guzofsky, a member of a violent militant group connected to the infamous Jewish supremacist Meir Kahane’s Kach Party.
...
In 2003, Gary Ackerman—a Jewish former congressman who was awarded India’s third-highest civilian honor for helping to found the Congressional Caucus on India—told a gathering of AJC and AIPAC representatives and their Indian counterparts that “Israel [is] surrounded by 120 million Muslims,” while “India has 120 million [within].” Tom Lantos, another Jewish member of the caucus, likewise enjoined the two communities to collaborate: “We are drawn together by mindless, vicious, fanatic, Islamic terrorism.”

Kapil Sibal, senior leader of India's opposition Congress party and lawyer for the petitioners, told the Supreme Court that there were over 800 cases of sedition pending across India and as many as 13,000 people were in jail. A majority of sedition cases filed against 405 Indians for criticising politicians and governments over the last decade were registered after 2014 when Prime Minister Narendra Modi took power, according to data compiled by the website Article 14.

"Today in Politics: PM Modi's Campaign in Andhra Pradesh and Congress's Focus on Family Strongholds"
As the electoral fervor intensifies across India, today’s political landscape sees Prime Minister Narendra Modi embarking on a campaign trail in Andhra Pradesh, while the Congress Party strategizes its stronghold defense in Uttar Pradesh. Let’s delve into the highlights of the day’s political agenda.
Tumblr media
PM Modi’s Foray into Andhra Pradesh
In a strategic move to bolster BJP’s presence in southern territories, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to address a series of rallies in Andhra Pradesh. Partnering with former Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and actor-politician K Pawan Kalyan’s JanaSena Party (JSP), the BJP aims to make significant inroads into the state’s political landscape.
PM Modi’s itinerary includes rallies in Karimnagar, Warangal, and Rajampet, along with a notable roadshow in Vijayawada. Additionally, he will pay homage at the revered Sri Raja Rajeshwara Swamy Temple in Karimnagar.
Although the BJP’s footprint in Andhra Pradesh remains modest, recent alliances with TDP and JSP signify a strategic maneuver to challenge the incumbent YSR Congress Party’s dominance.
Congress’s Defense Strategy in Uttar Pradesh
Meanwhile, the Congress Party gears up to defend its family bastions in Uttar Pradesh, specifically Amethi and Raebareli. Following a delayed announcement of candidates, Priyanka Gandhi, the party’s general secretary, is poised to spearhead the campaign in these crucial constituencies.
In a notable move, Rahul Gandhi, former MP from Amethi, shifts his electoral focus to Raebareli. Kishorilal Sharma, a trusted aide of the Gandhi family, steps into the fray in Amethi, marking a significant transition in the electoral landscape.
Priyanka Gandhi’s proactive engagement with party workers underscores the party’s concerted efforts to reclaim its strongholds. With veteran leaders Ashok Gehlot and Bhupesh Baghel appointed as observers, the Congress aims to optimize its campaign strategy for maximum impact.
Repolling in Barmer
In a development highlighting the integrity of the electoral process, repolling is scheduled in Rajasthan’s Barmer Lok Sabha seat due to breaches of vote confidentiality. The Election Commission’s decisive action underscores its commitment to upholding electoral integrity.
As the political arena brims with activity, each maneuver and campaign rally shape the contours of India’s electoral landscape. Stay tuned for further updates as the nation marches towards the culmination of the electoral process.

Poonamben Maadam - What Success Looks Like
Tumblr media
For the Bhartiya Janta Party, having a leader like Poonamben Maadam is quite a blessing.
A Jamnagar BJP candidate, here is a woman political leader who has brought about actual change. Here is an example of what a successful leader looks like.
See, for people who don't usually keep up with politics, like me, I prefer the theory. It is also an idea in my mind that I would talk about political leaders having a proven track record of good work.
Standing out among my list of such leaders is Poonamben Maadam, twice over winner of the Jamnagar elections. I am intrigued by this leader who is like a breath of fresh air amongst the other leaders.
Unlike those from other Indian political parties, here is a leader who ensures that the people under her are living a comfortable life. She has ensured that there is a good supply of water and electricity at all times.
Her work towards the improvement of the lifestyle of people under her also includes the betterment of the roads. This has led to a better transport system, making it easier for the trade to work well. This has led to an improvement in the living conditions of the people there.
It is also worth noting that with how the Jamnagar MP has been working, she has also shown that her driving force is her care for people.
Starting from introducing reforms to the educational system for students and children to the reforms for working women.
Each of her schemes and policies has the undercurrent of empathy and understanding, which makes it all the more impactful.
Another way that she has conquered the loyalty and trust of people is by introducing fast trains. She made history by bringing the first fast train to Saurashtra. This train goes from Jamnagar to Ahmedabad and stops at many important places in between.
By having a fast train, people can now travel quickly between these cities. This helps them get to work, school, or the hospital faster.
And this calls for the betterment of railway stations as well. She got 9 crores to improve Jam Khambhalia railway station. They'll add more platforms, parking spots, and even a garden. These changes will make the station more comfortable for people waiting for trains.
I think a part of me rejoiced in seeing how well she was managing her work. She is an inspiration because she is so innately humane. From the way, she comes up with policies to ensuring that the people in her care are comfortable and cared for.
Now that she is running for the elections again, I think I can easily say that her chances of winning are high. Nothing can beat the changes she has brought and the improvements she has made.
