“This government is scared”: Can Modi survive India's youth uprising? | UpFront

A wave of youth-led protests is challenging Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi's government, fuelled by anger over leaked exams, dwindling economic opportunities and allegations of voter suppression. As authorities face accusations of mass arrests and an increasingly heavy-handed crackdown on dissent, is Modi's grip on power beginning to weaken? And could India's younger generation pose the biggest challenge yet to his rule? This week on UpFront, Marc Lamont Hill speaks with Indian writer and journalist Aatish Taseer about the future of Indian democracy and whether the protests could mark a turning point for Modi's government. #narendramodi #cockroachjantaparty #india #protests #economy #politics #aljazeera #aljazeeraenglish
