New Delhi: Observers have expressed concerns that a series of alleged false flag operations in India, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, are being used to overshadow democratic issues and suppress dissent. These operations, spanning from Pulwama to Pahalgam, have raised questions about the government’s narrative of external threats.

According to reports from Kashmir Media Service, critics suggest that these incidents are not merely anti-Pakistan spectacles as portrayed by the Modi government and certain media outlets. Instead, they propose that these events are part of a strategic internal maneuver to divert attention from the government’s erosion of democratic principles.

Observers highlight that high-profile attacks, such as those in Pathankot and Uri, are swiftly attributed to external forces, specifically Pakistan, often without substantial evidence. This pattern is seen as a tactic to shift focus away from the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s (BJP) internal suppression of dissent and criticism, even from prominent figures within its own ideological sphere.

Critics point to the sidelining of influential leaders like L.K. Advani, Murli Manohar Joshi, and Arun Shourie, who have been vocal against Modi’s authoritative approach. The pattern, they argue, is clear: silence internal critics while amplifying external threats.

The same trend is noted with individuals such as Yashwant Sinha and Subramanian Swamy, who were dismissed after voicing concerns about economic policies. Observers argue that the BJP’s intolerance for internal criticism is more threatening than external adversaries, leading to manufactured crises to maintain control.

Further examples include the sidelining of Shatrughan Sinha and Varun Gandhi for their outspoken honesty, as well as the muting of Uma Bharti and Maneka Gandhi, who addressed issues related to women’s rights and environmental concerns.

In conclusion, critics argue that these orchestrated crises under Modi’s regime serve dual purposes: to demonize dissent and to distract from the underlying democratic decay. As these narratives unfold, they continue to feed into the image of Modi’s leadership while drawing attention away from pressing domestic issues.
