Indian youth 'not scared anymore': Modi and BJP party's 'architecture of fear has met its match'

Angela Diffley is pleased to welcome Anish Gawande, National Spokesperson for the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP). According to Mr. Gawande, India's student protests represent a generational rupture in Indian politics: the emergence of a politically fearless youth challenging a decade-long "architecture of fear" under Narendra Modi's government. He contends that the movement is about accountability rather than education policy, exposing a widening gap between a government accustomed to political dominance and a generation unwilling to accept opacity or state intimidation.
