Modi government under fire for pre-election tactics

In the lead-up to the Indian elections, there’s a lot of worry within the Modi government. People are getting concerned that they might lose the election. Some folks are saying they’re using unfair tactics to hold onto power.

There are accusations flying around that Prime Minister Modi is playing dirty. They’re saying he’s been locking up his political opponents and messing with their money to stop them from running campaigns. The main opposition party, Congress, is saying the government froze their leaders’ bank accounts to mess up their chances in the election.

Rahul Gandhi, who leads the Congress party, is pretty mad about it. He’s saying the government is trying to shut down anyone who disagrees with them. He thinks it’s not just about politics but about the whole idea of democracy in India.

There’s also some scary stuff happening in New Delhi. They’re saying the security forces are surrounding the house of Arvind Kejriwal, who’s the Chief Minister there. It’s making people worry even more about what the government might do next.

People are wondering if countries like the US and Europe will say anything about what’s happening before the election in India. They usually like to check if everything’s fair in other countries’ elections, so it’s a big deal.
