From Nehru, Indira , Rajiv to Manmohan India had been shaken by many riots not only to muslims but to many other religions. But for some propagandist there had only one riot in India since Independence. During the Manmohan regime there was worst riot in UP. But no Political leader was responsible. Bhagalpur riots were worst of riots in India but no one had ever noticed to that. No cm was responsible. A riot which was fueled by minorities by burning innocents in train is always propagated by the communist infested Journalism in India. BBC is not higher than supreme court of india. BBC should stop this information warfare in india, whose head is indulged in corruption charges and biasness. Britishers are unable to digest that india is now more powerful than their own country. How a country ruled by britishers has become cynosure of the world, how can they become so developed. They are unable to digest that. But Long gone are the days of the Britishers. They should look at their own country and attrocities done by them throughout history to many countries in the world. They should make documentaries about the land owned by them in various parts of the world like The falkland Islands.
This documentary is a worth watching and must watch content for every Indian. It's clearly brings out the Cheap and filthy Indian politics before us. The main reason behind my time investment on this documentary is the fact that it was not yet allowed to be released in India. We as Indians should enlighten our visions that how the Indian Democracy is moving ahead. This documentary gives us the proper facts that how Modi came into Power. Nothing in this documentary is a mere assumption or an illusionary idea. I am expecting more episodes from BBC to also reveal the bigshots behind Modi's crown.
Lies. Vested interests. Propagandist garbage. The BBC and the allies cannot begin to see an assertive India affecting the politics of the global order. The previous regime would lick the boots of the milords, and characterize their own land sheepishly - the presence of Modi, and the subsequent boost of morale and confidence in the Indians related to their cultural identity surely threaten a cabal.
This so-called research doesn't go beyond including individuals who have been known for spewing hatred and cooked up lies and stories that threaten the internal security of India - move beyond Arundhati Roy, who's been questioned for her credibility and stands before.
Muslims and Islamic extremism cannot evade by always playing the victim card - it must reform sooner or later.

India is not the only country in the world where different communities clash, nor was the track record of its once-dominant Congress party perfect, but the rise of the Hindu nationalist BJP in recent years is a cause for concern. This documentary looks at some of the controversies associated with its leader, Narendra Modi. Modi himeself, and his apologists, make the strongest case against themselves: while they formally defend their records, nothing they say indicates any level of concern for India's Muslim population. The series itself concentrates on particular incidents, rather than giving us a comprehensive account of the aims and actions of Modi and his party, or an explanation of why Indians have turned to them now. But it's still an important programme to watch (and now, one that Modi has attempted to ban).
2 hours pass without mention of the key stat that there are 200million Muslims in India. And without making the obvious point that while you can win democratic elections driving a wedge against this minority, the minority is large enough that this could then become a severe internal security problem.
Why oh why does this documentary not give any basic context of the long history of Muslims in India?
2 hours mostly focused on how much Modi directly ordered police doing nothing / why Modi didn't intervene for 3 days while police did nothing is a bad use of our time...
Would be much better if it at least briefly touched on:

Would be much better if it at least briefly touched on:
- how Hinduism and Islam came to be in India in the first place
- partition and how it turned violent, how this still shapes Pakistan India relations to this day
- response to that (secularism in constitution, Gandhi and others aware of danger of India being defined as Hindu nation from the start)
- Congress' rule and how Modi is now reframing that.
Did you know
- TriviaThe documentary was banned by Ministry of Information and Broadcasting in India. The timing of the documentary's release was quoted as an attempt to defame the Modi government and tarnish his image on international fora. BJP accused BBC of 'visceral political hatred' for Modi. It is worth noting that the apex court of India, the Supreme Court, has already confirmed SIT clean chit to PM Modi in Gujarat riots case by rejecting Zakia Jafri's plea in June, 2022.
