I agree with this. Arvind Kejriwal has a lot he needs to answer for, but here he is the aggrieved party.

The BJP is destroying the federal structure bit by bit so that Modi runs India by fiat. Maharashtra, Punjab, Tamil Nadu, Kerala - they will all be targeted.
Having said that, you have every right to call him out if you’re Kashmiri. That’s fair game.
Modi has already done irreparable damage to India with disasters like demonetization, assault on peaceful protesters, propping up Yogi Adityanath, encouraging vigilantes to lynch Muslims, getting us to the brink of war with Pakistan and crushing every dissenting voice.
The only resistance has been coming from states. But he isn’t going to be satisfied till everything goes according to his will. They toppled mang govts with trickery, installed puppet CMs who are little more than rubber stamps.
Modi’s party has absolute contempt for states that don’t elect them to power they are punished. Called “mini-Pakistan”, ignored in government. They want nothing but absolute control. Delhi has rejected BJP since 1998. The city is being punished for that crime.
The way this takeover is happening is so insidious. They cited Delhi riots during Donald Trump’s visit, even though police is already under the central govt.

Besides, it was BJP leaders inciting mobs. I know because I was there.

They just needed a reason to annex Delhi.

I was in Western UP after last year's crackdown against anti CAA protests and here's a pattern I noticed -

Yogi's ecosystem targeted prosperous, upwardly mobile Muslims.

(1/n)
Shops belonging to Muslim business owners in Muzaffarnagar's Meenakshi Chowk were sealed without due process - some of those shop owners weren't even in town during the protests.

Hindu owned shops in Shiv Chowk were left untouched.

(2/n)
Residents of Muslim majority neighbourhoods in Muzaffarnagar reported cops entering their homes, vandalising their properties - these houses belonged to upstanding members of the community who are seen as role models by other middle class Muslims.
