If you need to understand why many people are concerned about the health of democracy in India, look at the handling of the NEET paper leak and other examination controversies.

These incidents did not happen in a vacuum. They occurred under the leadership of Narendra Modi and a government ideologically aligned with the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh. In a democracy, accountability can not be selective. If governments claim credit for achievements, they must also accept responsibility for failures that impact the lives and aspirations of millions of young Indians.

Winning elections alone does not make a government democratic—especially in a hyper-information age where narratives, information flows, and public discourse can be influenced, shaped, and at times manipulated. Democracy is not merely about electoral victories; it is about transparency, institutional integrity, accountability, and equal opportunity.

At the same time, the problem runs deeper than any one government, leader, or organization. The roots lie in the hierarchical structure of Indian society itself. While the Constitution sought to create a modern democratic republic founded on equality and justice, constitutional values alone can not transform society without sustained civic participation and institutional commitment.

Every paper leak weakens public trust. Every examination controversy tells students that merit may be compromised by incompetence, corruption, or systemic failure. When institutions lose credibility, democracy itself is diminished.

Real change will not come through outrage alone. It requires a collective political and social effort—one that strengthens institutions, protects fairness, and demands accountability regardless of which party is in power.

The responsibility now rests with the youth of this great country.

Democracy survives not because it is written in a Constitution but because citizens choose to defend and practice it every day.

Come on, @Ram_Guha, this is a bit much. What experience did Barack Obama, a first-term Senator from Illinois, have in world affairs when he became President of the most powerful country on earth, while it was caught up in multiple global issues? For that matter, how much international exposure did the CM of Gujarat have to manage India’s International relationships? @RahulGandhi has led a national party for a dozen years. He has extensive contacts with leaders around the world and no shortage of advisers inside and outside his party. No President or PM handles crises alone; that’s why he heads a government! I think it’s time to put this overblown controversy to rest.

India has hope because of people like Aunindyo , not because of their politics but their honesty and intellectualness..

[Aunindyo Chakravarty @Aunindyo2023]

Spent the last two hours speaking to a few of my former students about CJP, and I kind of understood why the Congress has little to gain from being directly involved with these protests.

Most of them said something like this was needed to shake the govt out of its stupor over the failing education system.

Yet only one of them directly blamed the Modi govt, even though more than half thought the education minister should be replaced.

Eight out of the ten students I spoke to said they wouldn't have supported CJP if it had aligned with, or been backed by Rahul Gandhi.

In typical 'middle-class' fashion they said that 'politics' and 'politicians' should be kept out of it.

All they want is for the examination system to be fixed, and they feel the Modi government can do it if it wants.

Darab bhai

I have not read even the entire tweet, but the first 10 lines

Till time , no other political formation stood by idea of india but only & only Congress

You can't stand for secularism without political commitment

[Darab Farooqui @darab_farooqui]

Congress does not own my thoughts, and no party owns the democratic voice of a citizen.

It is the largest opposition party in the country, and like every party, it survives on the trust of people. And that trust is earned, not owed.

I have lived long enough to remember how, in UPA-2, leaders like Chidambaram, Manish Tewari, Beni Prasad Verma and others let arrogance speak louder than their work. At least I have not forgotten that era.

And yes, we support Congress, but we are a different generation of supporters. We did not grow up inside the Congress ecosystem.

We came to it on our own, drawn not to the party but to an idea. The idea of India. A democratic nation built on equality, justice, fraternity and dignity.

That is the whole of our pact with Congress. We seek no membership, no position, no favour. We ask only one thing. Deliver on the common goal. Honour the idea.

And on that count, something has gone wrong in how Congress's own supporters have started to speak recently.

"If you're not with Congress, you're with the BJP. It's that simple."

I picked this line because it says it most plainly, but I have many More examples, all dripping with the same hubris, putting people down, calling them even Sanghis.

Is a democracy of a billion people that simple?

"If you're not with Congress, you're with the BJP. It's that simple."

Is this is the message to citizens like me, who came to Congress freely, not out of tribe but out of belief in the idea of India?

Isn't this the very binary Congress claims to fight?

And can we not see that something is seriously going wrong?

The leadership may not be saying this. But it is being said in their name, and silence will be read as consent.

This is not the voice of an opponent. It is the warning of a friend who speaks now, because now is the time to make amends.

The lower rung of congress is really damaging things and alienating a lot of people who are genuine congress supporters.

Pune for a day, I couldn't help but ask: Why did Bengaluru become Bengaluru, while Pune remained Pune

At one, both are similar, but now Bengaluru is 5X

The number of employees earning a salary of Rs.1 crore or more per annum in Infosys is 130.

In a leading software company in the country itself only hundred plus people are earning a crore or more. And the number of employees working in Infosys is more than 3 lakhs. We are talking about roughly 0.04% employees in such a reputed institution.

High income and big wealth is not easy as some finfluencers make it look like. The only exception to this rule is corrupt people in our country.
