Description
The Smokescreen: The Managed Illusion of Indian Democracy, Electronic Voting Machines, and Institutional Capture
This research report is an expanded political research report that builds upon the earlier September 2025 study Unveiling the Smokescreen of Indian Democracy: Fabricated Factors Masking Electoral Manipulation. This second edition consolidates new political developments, election outcomes, public statements, media patterns, and international interventions to argue that India’s electoral democracy has been systematically hollowed out and replaced with a managed illusion of democratic continuity.
