In the latest annual report on global political rights and liberties by Freedom House, a US government-funded NGO that studies political freedom around the world, India바카라s status as a democracy and free society has been downgraded to 바카라partly free바카라.
As the report titled 바카라Freedom in the World 2021 - Democracy under Siege,바카라 India 바카라appears to have abandoned its potential to serve as a global democratic leader바카라. The report mentions India바카라s fall 바카라from the upper ranks of free nations could have a particularly damaging impact on global democratic standards바카라.
바카라India바카라s status declined from Free to Partly Free due to a multiyear pattern in which the Hindu nationalist government and its allies have presided over rising violence and discriminatory policies affecting the Muslim population and pursued a crackdown on expressions of dissent by the media, academics, civil society groups, and protesters,바카라 the report says.
바카라While India is a multiparty democracy, the government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has presided over discriminatory policies and increased violence affecting the Muslim population. The constitution guarantees civil liberties including freedom of expression and freedom of religion, but harassment of journalists, nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), and other government critics has increased significantly under Modi. Muslims, scheduled castes (Dalits), and scheduled tribes (Adivasis) remain economically and socially marginalized,바카라 it says.
In 2018, 2019, and 2020, India had been rated as 바카라free바카라 in Freedom House바카라s reports, though its scores on a scale of 100 had declined during this period from 77 to 71. In the latest report, India had a score of 67 out of 100.
