Dark Side To Narendra Modi

Modi's seeming religious intolerance,the implications of his rule on Indian press freedom (especially as Hindu nationalists take to the internet to intimidate Modi critics) are cause for concern.
Modi showed her copies of Barack Obama’s books. “He said, ‘Maithili, look at this. I want to be like him someday,’ ” she recalled. She was struck by his canniness. “I thought Modi was either going to be Prime Minister or he was going to jail.” newyorker.com/magazine/2019/…

Petrol prices have nothing to do with import dependence or previous govts, especially when crude prices have been benign. It has everything to do with the govt wanting to collect revenues when other forms of taxation are not accruing revenues energy.economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/oil-and-g…
The share of petrol and diesel in total consumption is more than 50%. These are also products NOT included in the GST, which means both state and center collect taxes on consumption. For eg, for every litre of petrol at INR 100, taxes are ~60-67rs
This chart shows you the total taxes/duties for *all* petroleum products.But since petrol and diesel account for 50% of consumption, they are also the highest revenue generator for the govt. The center collects slightly more revenue from taxes than states
