Interesting food for thought on recent Gen Z colour revolutions in South Asia, from Sri Lanka to Bangladesh and Nepal. The BBC loved them all and expected India to be next for a colour revolution which would sweep Modi and his government from power. But to the BBC’s great disappointment, it didn’t happen.
There are some very complex and intriguing geopolitics taking place in South Asia. Unpacking these complexities is not easy and those attempting to do so without care are likely to make mistakes and form wrong conclusions. But this article makes a good start.
The idea that it everything in South Asia is India against China rivalry is an oversimplification, although the potential coming together of Pakistan, Bangladesh and China as a trilateral partnership might cause concern for India. At the same time however, Western interests also surface in the colour revolutions of South Asia, otherwise why would the BBC need to be disappointed that India’s government didn’t fall….
The British thought they were on a roll after governments in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal fell. The Brits expected India to fall next which would pave the way for a more pro-Western government to come to power. The BBC hates India’s strategic autonomy.
TWO …….. The BBC cannot understand why young Indians are not taking to the streets to overthrow their government in the name of democracy and freedom. Propaganda is coming through social media and smartphones to over 370 million Indians but they are not biting and surrendering to the propaganda as occured in Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Nepal.
So come on Gen Z Indians, do it for the BBC, overthrow your government and make them happy…
