It should worry us, that an alleged Special Intensive Revision (SIR) is weaponized to become a tool of disenfranchisement. It should worry us, that troops are pulled out of a disturbed state, to 'manage' elections. It should worry us, that delimitation has become a tool of gerrymandering. It should worry us, that opposition candidates are increasingly being forced to withdraw from the race. It should worry us, that the commentariat refuses to speak up, on this institutionalised rigging. It should worry us that even a pretence of democracy has ceased to exist in India.
