Is India's BJP the most ruthlessly efficient political party? (ft.com) 6 points by CuriousIndian 2y ago ↗ HN
[–] smt88 2y ago ↗ "Ruthlessly efficient" is an interesting euphemism for "corrupt and willing to persecute minorities who are less likely to vote for them."There's a reason India is considered a "hybrid regime" and not a democracy anymore, and Modi's BJP is the reason.
[–] FrankWilhoit 2y ago ↗ The question is whether "efficiency" in a political party is a good thing. [–] heavensent 2y ago ↗ Sometimes, I think yes. But most of the time efficiency in politics is just a boogeyman to cover up diktats, and skipping the due process and throwing away the checks and balances.
