Is India still the world's largest democracy, or is it slipping away? In this video, we dive into India’s democratic struggles, from electoral integrity and restricted free speech to civil society crackdowns and rising religious tensions. Backed by Freedom House 2025 (India: "Partly Free," 63/100) and V-Dem 2024 ("electoral autocracy"), we highlight stark realities: 84 internet shutdowns and 59 communal riots in 2024 alone. With facts, stories, and a dash of satire, we unpack what’s at stake. Watch, reflect, and join the call for change!
