    This is a leading question. While I appreciate the sentiment, the question makes multiple assumptions and provides no reference/evidence. The question just wants to polarize the readers.

      There is ample of evidence.

      Gujarati businesses are taking over others and driving out local businesses with the help of the government.

      A case study of this is the large steamers of Gujarati billionaires that are driving small boaters out of their livelihood in Varanasi

      4500 Poor people’s houses and shops bulldozed to build five star hotels owned by Gujarati property tycoons in Ayodhya

      World’s largest semiconductor plant being built in Ahmedabad completely bankrolled by taxpayers money but owned by Adani a Gujarati billionaire.

      Go search yourself there is plenty of evidence.

    A lot of people assume that the act of decolonization usually leads to a change in the type of government, but that is a lot rarer that people think. Some changes to government happen, but a lot of times, the economic and cultural practices persist after decolonization.

    I expect that this is happening in India. The British left behind an unequal society. Rather than radically reforming that society, the Indian economic and political leadership replaced British positions with Indian ones.

      That’s exactly what is happening in India.

      Even this contemporary push for hindu nationalism is already making inequality worse than before.

      Corruption, unemployment, inflation is getting worse which will further expand the gap between haves and have nots and people are being distracted with culture wars.
