India has progressively been getting more racist (institutionally) and authoritarian under Modi, so it's not a surprise they would be extremely hostile to ethnic separatist movements. This is still outrageous and bewildering though. Like, the comparison for Modi is Erdogan or Duda, not Putin or Xi, ...
