This is Modi's election. And in that, this election is a battle for Indians to wrestle back their identities that have been assaulted and demonized. In order to facilitate colonial structures that perpetuate slavery. This Indian election is an exercise in freedom.

Why do seemingly normal people commit atrocities and genocides? More importantly, why do millions other go along with these crimes as participants? We explore the Perpetration-Induced Trauma and its impact on the societies.
The following “Rape Map of India” is very interesting. In 2011, a total of 24,206 rape cases were registered in India, as per the National Crime Records Bureau. The map gives the distribution of the cases. Obviously, reporting of rape cases in India is not the same as reporting of a rape case in, say Sweden. Many go unreported in India. So, while this gives an indication of regional occurrence, it shouldn’t be taken as truth for overall numbers.
As can be seen the top 6 states for the crime are:
Madhya Pradesh
West Bengal
Uttar Pradesh
Rajasthan
Maharashtra
Assam
So given the culture in all the states, it is obvious that neither education, nor party in power, and even the religious biases aren’t any indicator. It is beyond all that. Something to think about.
