Former Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has leveled serious accusations against the Modi administration, claiming it exhibits authoritarian traits. Gehlot alleges that social media platforms have been directed to remove posts critical of the Prime Minister, afflicting even staunch government supporters.

During a media interaction, Gehlot asserted the irony that censorship extends to right-wing allies defending the government. He stated accounts were blocked, and influencers faced intimidation, revealing a disturbing trend of rising intolerance.

Gehlot articulated concerns over democracy eroding under current governance, urging even ruling party supporters to reflect on this 'undeclared emergency' threatening India's democratic fabric.
