Rahul Gandhi is a perpetual liar and it is known fact that he patiently waits for every opportunity to belittle and ridicule India.
His recent statement on the social media platform Twitter sharing an image of the Varieties of Democracy (V-DEM) Institute Democracy Report 2021 – ‘India is no longer a democratic country’ is a clear indication of his petty mindset towards India.

Rahul Gandhi actions are no accidents and neither is it a work of an imbecile though he appears to be foolish in his attempts to make India look bad or in his half-baked attacks on Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
Rahul Gandhi is singing the tune crafted by global economic terrorist George Soros.
The V-DEM Institute Democracy that reportedly downgraded India from ‘world largest democracy’ to ‘electoral autocracy’ and termed India now as autocratic as Pakistan, worse than Bangladesh is an institute that a strong relationship with George Soros funded Open Society Foundation. In fact Open Society Foundation is listed on V-DEM Institute’s official website as one of the funders to the Institute’s research work.
The Democracy Report states: “India is, in this aspect (censorship) now as autocratic as is Pakistan, and worse than both its neighbors Bangladesh and Nepal. In general, the Modi-led government in India has used laws on sedition, defamation, and counterterrorism to silence critics. For example, over 7,000 people have been charged with sedition after the BJP assumed power and most of the accused are critics of the ruling party.
Use of defamation ‘frequently used to silence journalists’ and the use of the Unlawful Activities Prevention Act (UAPA) have placed constraints on civil society and gone against the Constitution’s commitment to secularism.
Amended in August 2019 (it) is being used to harass, intimidate, and imprison political opponents, as well as people mobilizing to protest government policies. The UAPA has been used also to silence dissent in academia. Universities and authorities have also punished students and activists in universities engaging in protests against the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA).
Civil society is being increasingly muzzled while organisations aligned with the “Hindutva movement” have gained freedom. “The BJP have increasingly used the Foreign Contributions Regulation Act (FCRA) to restrict the entry, exit and functioning of Civil Society Organisations (CSO).”
