"Rise of Hindu Nationalism: Impact of Modi's 10-Year Reign in India"
TL;DR Summary
Hindu nationalism, once a fringe ideology in India, has become mainstream under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership, heavily influenced by the paramilitary right-wing group RSS. Modi's political upbringing in the RSS has shaped his policies, leading to attacks against minorities and blurring the line between religion and state. As he campaigns for a third term, Modi's popularity and influence have made Hindu nationalism acceptable to a nation of 1.4 billion, with immense support from the Hindu majority.
