China And The West Are Keeping India Down

A potshot was taken in the West by External Affairs Minister Subrahmanyam Jaishankar on Sunday, saying that it has a bad habit of judging others. In his opinion, Western nations somehow consider it a God-given right.

Jaishankar was responding to a question about Germany’s, and the United States’ comments about Rahul Gandhi’s disqualification from the Parliament. The West tends to intervene in the internal matters of other nations. Especially in recent years, things have been more complex for India.

Over the past few years, several anti-India forces have joined to create a world of despair and widespread chaos, from the CAA agitations to the farmers’ protests. Theorist Jan Kozák developed a toolkit explaining how a few communists managed to gain power through parliamentary manoeuvres in Czechoslovakia.

As David Horowitz and Richard Poe explain in their book, The Shadow Party, Kozák’s methods involved exerting pressure on radical change from two directions simultaneously – upper-level Government and street provocateurs. He called this tactic pressure from above and below.China And The West Are Keeping India Down

A way to create the illusion of widespread clamour for change from below, as Kozák explained, is to fill the streets with rioters, strikers, and protesters. Then, the Government’s radicals would exert pressure from above, enacting new laws to appease protesters on the road, even though the demonstrators had played a role in the plot.

There would be no knowledge of what was happening among most people. Many would sink into apathy and despair, believing they were hopelessly outnumbered by the radicals, despite not being so.

A radical minority could therefore impose its will on a moderate majority, even in a democratic, parliamentary society.

India Is Facing Pressure

As India faces pressure for radical change, its opponents carry Kozák’s toolkit characteristics, whereas friendly Western nations and their agencies drive it from above.

Similar events occurred just before the 2019 parliamentary elections. Different and divergent forces had joined to bring about a regime change with limited foreign involvement.

Again, there are the same forces; this time, they are more coordinated and purposeful – not just aggressive and desperate. Congress, in particular, has played a disappointing role in all of this – which is quite disturbing.

A scorched-earth policy is being followed by the grand old party, which has been in the wilderness for over a decade without signs of resurgence. Rahul Gandhi shows India as a failed democracy, afflicted with caste and communal conflict, and facing an existential crisis when he speaks abroad.China And The West Are Keeping India Down

His willful ignorance ignores the fact that he is denigrating a well-developed democracy abroad. Similarly, Digvijaya Singh thanked Germany last week for noting how the persecution of Rahul Gandhi was compromising Democracy in India.

As the Congress-led Opposition endures dynastic politics, minority, and morose statism, 2024 represents a do-or-die moment for the politico-intellectual ecosystem that nurtured the Nehruvian order. Even if it survives the 2019 tremor, it will take a miracle to stay in 2024.

Putting India on notice is different for foreign countries and their agencies. In this case, Western and Chinese interests coincide. The Chinese Government is alarmed by a resurgent India that isn’t afraid to go big at times.

We are witnessing a revolutionary change in India’s infrastructure and military. In particular, the Modi government’s emphasis on developing Ladakh and other bordering areas must have been distressing to the Xi Jinping administration.

The time would have passed before it could take on India. Yet India’s political-military resolve over the past three years may have made the Chinese wonder if it’s not too late – both on and off the diplomatic table!

For the West, it faces a similar dilemma. Although India is wary of its rise as a global power, it wants to be a bulwark against Chinese hegemony. India does not want to be too big to escape American influence finally.China And The West Are Keeping India Down

Media coverage, academia, and the bureaucracy of the West express apparent unease with India’s rise. USCIRF recently reported on India’s democratic and secular credentials. Now comes the World Happiness Report 2023, which places India at 126th out of 137 countries studied, below Pakistan, Sri Lanka, and even Ukraine!

Afghan researchers would have had more access to Afghanistan if the Taliban weren’t ruling Kabul! In Davos this year, many experts called India a bright spot on the global stage. As well as geostrategic concerns, a $10 trillion Indian economy is too big for China.

In that case, there is growing apprehension in the West that India, in that case, will no longer need Western help to escape China’s hegemonistic designs, thereby moving outside American influence.

As a result, the power apparatus of the global economy would be decisively shifted to the East, much to the anger of the West. Western governments, led by the US, Britain, Germany, and others, often take strong positions against India because of this bad press.

Khalistani and Islamist forces are also gaining momentum in many Western capitals in the same direction as these forces against India. George Soros might be responsible for such Western subversions against India.

Many coups and rebellions have been staged in his name in many countries. His Open Society Foundation (OSF) has a subversive mission, according to his 1995 New Yorker profile. In one country, I would say one thing; in another, I would say something else, and he laughed.

Initially, he denied involvement in the November 2003 uprising, which overthrew Georgian President Eduard Shevardnadze. Still, he later admitted to the Los Angeles Times that he was thrilled by what happened in Georgia and proud that I had been a part of it. There is evidence that Soros is concerned about India’s rise under Prime Minister Modi.

Moreover, his associations with anti-Modi forces are no secret, according to the OSF, which is accused of funding both anti-CAA and anti-farm laws protests in India. Salil Shetty, the vice president of OSF India, even accompanied Rahul Gandhi during his recent Bharat Jodo Yatra, emphasizing his role in the campaign.China And The West Are Keeping India Down

Rahul Gandhi’s Congress shouldn’t get involved with the West’s dangerous, Soros-like game in India. Among Western subversive forces, including the Deep State, Soros connects India’s internal disruptive elements to that of the West.

Democracy in India faces an immense challenge as it nears 2024, a challenge that is only going to grow more challenging. It is good that the Indian Government is aware of the conspiracy to depose it. One thing that may help India: its enemies share a hatred for the idea of Bharat as a civilization.

After all, Soros is planning to unleash capitalism on India to bring together the nonsense, violence, and nihilistic ideologies of Islamism, Khalisterism, and Communism. It is hypocritical, deceptive, dangerous, and nothing less.
