India has a large population, that is incresingly becoming poor. We had a burgeoning middle-class. the middle-class is becoming poor, the poor are becoming poverty-stricken, and the poverty-stricken ... Modi's economic policies have pushed 80 crores of Indians to subsistence living, where they survive on 5 kgs of free rice a month. 2 weeks ago the Reserve bank of India released a report that said the personal savings & investments of Indians is at its lowest ever. Which means they've no money to spend.
Leaders of Western countries want India to be on their side and provide resources and bases or their fight against China. Modi is on Modi's side and is too afraid of China to even take its name since they invaded Ladakh in 2020. That's 3 years of India's PM being terrified to say 'China'. He surrendered Galwan and 20+ of India's patrolling points to China without a fight, without even lodging a diplomatic protest. He's that terrified of them. And Western leaders think honouring him with Le Grand Croix de Legion de l'Honneur & a WH dinner will stiffen his spine. It's only made him more repressive inside india and a bully to the West.
