It's depressing to watch India come off the rails so fast under Modi.

I was with you up until the “so fast under Modi” bit.

Modi was chief minister of Gujarat from 2001 to 2014 and has been PM since then — a decade.

It’s been a slow and predictable train wreck with a lot of momentum.

Meanwhile, he dismantled the caste system but it’s still going strong with only the exceptions being celebrated.

Don't think they were ever on the rails to begin with in all honesty. All that being said I think the young people of India will get that country ON the rails eventually. They're more vocal now, especially online, but that has only been a very recent change. But it won't happen for some time. There's just a whole lot of negativity, especially in Canada, when it comes to India and they're not helping that image at all.
