Water in Your Streets, Worship in Your News: Modi’s PR Flood Drowns Democracy
As citizens wade through broken roads and waterlogged streets, the government is busy diverting your tax money—not into fixing your city, but into polishing one man’s image. Let’s break down how India’s “PR Rashtra” is eating away at democracy, one newspaper ad at a time:
1. Broken Roads, Broken System
Your commute is a daily obstacle course of potholes, puddles, and flooded underpasses. But fixing that? Nah. Tax money is instead splurged on glossy newspaper spreads praising the “visionary” leader.
2. Newspapers or Modi’s Personal Magazine?
Open today’s paper, and you’ll find no space for news. It’s wall-to-wall Modi—photos, slogans, and “achievements” packaged as headlines. Journalism is dead; long live the PR booklet.
3. Ambedkar Warned Us. Nobody Listened.
“Bhakti or hero-worship in politics is a sure road to degradation,” Ambedkar once said. What do we have now? A democracy reduced to bhakti rallies, with taxpayers funding the cult of personality.
4. Democracy Gaslighted into PR
A collapsing healthcare system, broken schools, and an economic slowdown? Buried. Because the media’s job has shifted: not to question power, but to worship it. The watchdog has become the lapdog.
5. Your Taxes at Work—For His Face
Instead of improving drainage, infrastructure, or public services, your hard-earned money is going into daily photo ops. You’re paying for your own brainwash.
6. Flooded Streets, Flooded Egos
As you wade through ankle-deep sewage water, remember: you’re not witnessing government failure. You’re witnessing government priorities. Streets may sink, but the PR machine must shine.
🔥 Bottom Line: india isn’t just battling potholes and waterlogging. It’s drowning in a flood of propaganda, where reality is submerged and only one face floats above the waterline.
