Bharat mata ki jai India 🇮🇳 🙏 👏 ❤
Indians public :Just because your favourite politicians are not winning doesn’t mean democracy is under threat
Indian left wing : 😡
Citizenship is given to religious minorities from neighboring countries who are Islamic ..many minorities are persecuted there especially Hindus and Sikhs..the only place in the world they can find solace is India…the citizenship amendment act is the aftermath of India’s partition and it was supposed to be executed long before to bring justice to those people and it was even proposed and pursued by Congress..It’s not an invention of BJP..BJP being a strong political party who won on its ideologies have made it possible..they have to do it and it’s the people’s demand by whom BJP was voted to power!It’s done through a democratic process in Parliament and it’s not executed as an authoritarian order !!All governance in India is by a democratic parliamentary process !!Al Jazeera is conveniently picking what suits their propaganda !!
Can you imagine a bunch of diametrically opposed political parties which are bitter rivals coming together to defeatbone man ? Yeah, that's our opposition. When people see such a contradictory alliance, they lose trust. When opposition loses, democracy dies according to them.
If you loved India don't vote Bjp. 🙏🙏🙏
I want congress government vote for congress zindabad
This news documentary has biased views, those who can’t see this are blinded by the hype created of growth, this is not balanced journalism, this is PR with the cover of fake mask of balanced journalism.
Focus on words and people in this video you will find out.
Iss bar Congress
BJP 400 par ❤ we will make it happened
27:02 who is this guy …he is such an illiterate …i mean you can pick any significant guy who actually knows what happening and ask him why ask a nobody ..is it that you cant find anyone who was willing to come to your show LOL
Modi = Development
Rahul= corrupt coalition
I never view India as a democracy. It was a Soviet satellite and now a Russian and Chinese satellite.
Prime Minister Modi is winning …. Landslide victory will create history 🎉🎉🎉
We want Hindu Rashtra Indias Converted Muslims waiting to create Another Pakistan
Converted Jihadis Are crying Joker Rahul Pappu Will not win
First Unbaised reporting i saw
Hindus reclaimed their grand Ram temple back which originally was a hindu temples which was destroyed by islamists. Its not hard to understand and its proven in supreme court of the largest democracy in the world. Simple facts.
Disgusting effort of projecting Indian voters on caste line by a channel from an Anglo-Saxon county. Most pathetic is they are doing this using their Indian employees.
Modi is loved by all coz he is not some fancy guy who comes from a billioanre family having studied in harvard …he is a common man who rose from among us ..he knows the middle class coz he was from middle class he knows what india is coz he is a common indian ..rahul gandhi can never become the PM
Modi is great ,, he send jail all corrupt leader ,,, ❤❤❤
One and only Modi ji 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Abi ki 450 paar 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
India needs a better Leader of Opposition, Rahul Gandhi is unfit, immature even today when his age is 54 yrs.
He has Zero experience in administration. He has been forced into politics by congress loyalist.
Very good excellent an literally in depth documentary i was thought i am watching an Indian news channel excellent research ❤🔥🔥 ZERO BIAS
21:10 misleading facts
Arvind kejriwal is not the 1st Seating CM to be arrested
Hemant Soren, Lalu Yadav & many more are the examples
I think ABC should learn more from BBC to do better propaganda and narrative building than this. Poor foreign media will need a lot of burnoil after Modi comes to power for the 3rd term and to make India 3rd largest economy of the World.😂
The biggest enwmy of India is not China it iz the West and its narratives to fool people through media propaganda which is spread all across globe….
MODI winning this election wt highest margin ever in India
I am subscribing ABC news right away. This was truly a non-biased and non propaganda coverage of topics. I am glad u didn't call modi a hindu nationalist or stuff like that. Nice 👏
Modi again 2024
Vote for BJP ❤
Only Modi ❤
