Forget speeches. Forget slogans. Forget whatsapp forwards.
Let’s talk numbers — because numbers don’t lie, they indict.
When narendra modi took office in 2014–15, gold was affordable, fuel was manageable, the rupee still had dignity, and gas cylinders didn’t feel like luxury items. Ten years later, everything costs more — except accountability. What was promised as “economic transformation” has turned into one of the most aggressive cost-of-living squeezes in independent India’s history.
💥 THE ECONOMIC COLLAPSE — POINT BY POINT
1️⃣ Gold: From Asset to Dream
In 2014, gold cost roughly ₹2,500 per gram — a sovereign (8g) was around ₹20,000.
Today? ₹12,500+ per gram, sovereign crossing ₹1 lakh.
This isn’t growth. This is currency erosion in disguise.
2️⃣ Rupee vs Dollar: A Silent Defeat
In 2014, ₹60 bought $1.
Within months of the Modi government, it slipped to ₹66.
Today, it hovers around ₹91.
Despite slogans, strong leadership claims, and chest-thumping, the rupee lost nearly 35% of its value.
3️⃣ The Fake Prophecy That Fooled Millions
A godman once claimed the dollar would fall to ₹30 if Modi came to power.
Why did such nonsense matter?
Because religion was deliberately injected into politics — not for faith, but for distraction.
4️⃣ Crude oil Reality Check
In the early 2010s, crude crossed $100 per barrel, yet petrol stayed around ₹71 per litre.
Under Modi, crude fell to $50, yet petrol shot past ₹101, even touching ₹110 for long periods.
This isn’t market pressure. This is tax extraction.
5️⃣ election Discounts, Permanent Loot
Fuel prices were suddenly cut before the 2024 elections — proving the government always had the power to reduce prices.
Once votes were secured, the knife went back in.
6️⃣ Russian oil at Discount, indian Consumers at Premium
India bought Russian crude at nearly half global prices — yet consumers saw no relief.
Who pocketed the margin?
Not you.
7️⃣ LPG: From Necessity to Burden
In 2004, LPG was ₹290.
By 2014, after ten years, it rose to ₹410, a gradual ₹120 increase.
Under Modi, cylinders crossed ₹1,100–₹1,200 in many states.
Today’s ₹850 price exists only because of political fear, not policy compassion.
8️⃣ The Hypocrisy Archive
Once, a ₹5 LPG hike triggered street protests with empty cylinders.
Today, a ₹700 hike is met with silence — because outrage was selective, not sincere.
9️⃣ Gender, Symbolism, and Manufactured Morality
Women carrying empty cylinders were once “resistance.”
Today, women absorbing inflation quietly is called “resilience.”
Same pain. Different propaganda.
⚠️ WHY A WEAK government STILL RULES WITH ARROGANCE
Despite losing majority strength, this government continues to rule unchecked because of the five pillars:
1️⃣ Ideologically Captured Judiciary
2️⃣ Compliant corporate Media
3️⃣ Politicised Bureaucracy
4️⃣ A Section of Citizens Who Enjoy Fraud as Spectacle
5️⃣ Massive election Funding from Scams and Crony Capital
Until these pillars crack, regime change alone won’t end the problem.
🧨 FINAL TRUTH
This is not about bjp vs Congress.
This is not about ideology.
This is about numbers screaming while slogans distract.
You can win elections and still keep fighting.
Because when power, money, media, and institutions align against people, victory is only the beginning, not the end.
The struggle doesn’t pause.
Even when you win.
