India is now undergoing a general election for the next president, and the country's general election campaign is in full swing, and all political parties are trying their best to get votes for themselves in the hope of getting a good result.
Originally, it was a harmonious scene, but I didn't expect that the situation in India would change overnight, because of the general election activities, and even serious violent incidents began to occur in some places, which greatly surprised people.
Fortunately, the scale of these violent incidents is not large, and it does not have much impact on the overall outcome, but this is not over, and Modi's attitude towards China has begun to change at this critical moment, which is even more puzzling.
So why has Modi's attitude toward China changed at the critical juncture of the presidential election? What does India's presidential election have to do with China?
India's general election changed overnight
On April 19, local time in India, the long-awaited Indian presidential election finally opened the voting stage.
According to incomplete statistics, there are about 969 million voters in India, and in order to better complete the voting stage, India has dispatched 15 million workers and set up more than 1 million polling stations.
It is not difficult to see that the entire presidential election process in India is really not an easy task, with nearly 1 billion votes, it is no wonder that the Indian general election takes such a long time.
India's general election began on April 19 and lasted until June 1, a period of up to one and a half months, so the Indian general election is also known as a "marathon election".
For their next president, the Indian people are very concerned and full of expectations, compared with many small countries, India's presidential election has a high degree of freedom, voters can vote whoever they want, India is really in the election process!
In fact, not only the Indian people are concerned about this matter, but many countries in the world are also staring at India, after all, India still has a certain status in the world, and India's foreign relations and policies will definitely be affected by the next prime minister.
From this point of view, it is not difficult to understand that other countries pay attention to the Indian election, and I have to say that the entire election process in India is really open and transparent, and with so many pairs of eyes staring, the Indian election is also very standardized and is in full swing.
But this harmonious and stable scene did not last long, and before the day passed, there were unusual conditions in many polling stations in India, riots and refusal to vote were still minor matters, and there were even violent incidents in some places.
On the first day of the Indian election, there was such "negative news", good guy, who can withstand it, originally India was still a peaceful and stable scene, but I didn't think that because of the presidential election, India changed overnight.
The day before was peaceful and stable, but after the general election, it was instantly chaotic.
At the polling site in West Bengal, Modi's BJP directly clashed with the local ruling party, which is a grassroots Congress party, and the two sides directly began to commit violence on the spot because of the "hostile relationship" in the general election.
At first, it was just a small fight such as throwing stones, but later it directly evolved into beating staff members, and even directly setting fire to the campaign office, which is indeed a bit too much violence.
Although the two sides are insisting on each other's accusations and not convincing each other, the violence on the scene is real, and there are also cases of refusal to vote in many places.
In a small part of Tamil Nadu alone, as many as six villages refused to vote because the Indian government did not heed the demands of these "ordinary people", who wanted to get the attention of the Indian government in this way.
Such an outrageous incident occurred on the first day of the general election, and what kind of outrageous incident will happen in the next month and a half, so far it is really difficult to make a conclusion, and it can only depend on the Indian government's next response.
In the final analysis, India's general election is an internal matter of India's own country, and no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with other countries, but India "does not emphasize martial virtues" and directly dragged China into the water!
China is inexplicably lying guns
China and India share a long border with each other, but even so, China and India are independent of each other, and their relationship has not risen to the level of good brothers, and no matter how Indian elections should not involve China.
But then again, it can be seen from the overnight change in the Indian general election that the Indian general election did not go so smoothly, after all, India's own domestic contradictions are not small, and it is impossible to resolve the contradictions in a short time.
The best way to do this is to deflect the contradictions, to transfer the contradictions at home to the outside world, and in view of the long-standing border problems between India and China, China has naturally become the "man behind the blame".
As early as March, Modi had already begun to pave the way for his presidential election, and went directly to China's southern Tibet region to participate in the unveiling ceremony.
This is not over, on April 11, Modi's attitude began to change 180 degrees, and he even began to take the initiative to find China, hoping to solve the Sino-Indian border issue, which is really a bit abnormal, you must know that India has always avoided this kind of thing.
Logically, this should be a situation that both sides would want to see, but the results are clear, and the violence in India on the first day of the election, coupled with the refusal to vote in many regions, is already telling.
Under such a trend, it is clear that Modi is a negative factor, and in order to be re-elected as prime minister, Modi is likely to continue to play the same role against China and play the same scene again.
To be honest, Indians still eat Modi's set, otherwise India's voice of support for Modi would not be so strong, and there would not be a one-sided situation in foreign media predictions.
epilogue
Modi's approval ratings have remained high since he was in southern Tibet in March, and India's March polls showed that his approval rating had reached an exaggerated 75 percent.
Good guys, the support rate of other countries' elections is in single digits, but when it comes to Modi's side, it is good, and the gap is three times higher, this number can no longer be described as exaggerated, this presidential election is no different from going through the process.
But Modi's operation to pull China into the water is really flattering, and his attitude towards China is sometimes good and bad, isn't this just joking about the relationship between China and India?
No matter what happens in India's election, Modi should not do this, if India really wants to get closer to China, then China will definitely welcome it, but if Modi just wants political manipulation, it will definitely pay a heavy price!
