Narendra Modi's Independence Day speech sounded more like a snake oil salesman than a statesman

Retrieved on:

Tuesday, August 22, 2023

Narendra Modi’s tenth consecutive Independence Day speech as Indian prime minister, delivered from the Red Fort in Delhi on August 15, was long (90 minutes) and characteristically loaded with bombast.

Key Points:

Narendra Modi’s tenth consecutive Independence Day speech as Indian prime minister, delivered from the Red Fort in Delhi on August 15, was long (90 minutes) and characteristically loaded with bombast.
At times, he resembled the old snake oil salesman cliché: he proclaimed the success of his product and ignored its side effects.
He was vague on detail and tried to distance himself from any problems his policies had caused.
India’s Independence Day speech is supposed to celebrate freedom from British colonial rule which ended in 1947.

Rhetoric versus reality

Sadly but predictably, few media organisations were brave enough to point to the contrast between his rhetoric and reality when he listed his government’s successes.
A blatantly assertive Hindu supremacist vigilante mob culture is on display where hate speech against Muslims and Christians has become normalised.
Were Modi a statesman worthy of his position, he would have assured India’s minorities that they are equal rights-bearing citizens.
He would have refrained from platitudes about peace and the “Indian family” and rather spelled out policy proposals to tackle ethnic violence in Manipur.

Stump speech

Modi’s speech spent some time accusing his political opponents of the “three evils” his government had worked hard to eradicate.
It is significant that the day before his speech, the Nehru Memorial Museum and Library (named after India’s first and longest-serving prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru) was renamed Prime Minister’s Museum and Library.
Modi’s speech was nothing more than a stump speech for the 2024 election aimed firmly at the country’s Hindu majority.
Towards the end of his speech, Modi expressed his confidence that on August 15 2024, he would again address the country from the Red Fort after being reelected.

Key Points:

At its outset, in 2013, it drew attention to the lack of women on prize shortlists.
Over time, it appears to have shifted prize culture in this county to the point that it seems unlikely that we’ll see a “sausagefest” shortlist again any time soon.
This year’s shortlist is no exception, for the most part steering away from established authors and major presses.

We Come With This Place by Debra Dank

Here, Debra Dank pulls the reader close and shares stories not only about her childhood, but also her ancestors and her children.
I emerged from this book grateful to Dank for being willing to share it with us as readers.

Hydra by Adriane Howell

In this evocatively spooky place she falls in thrall to a mysterious creature that may or may not be an urban myth.
I love this novel’s attention to the world of work and its expectations, and the complexities of female friendship.
Hydra is a new take on the gothic representation of a place with a layered history.

Indelible City by Louisa Lim

Louisa Lim uses a combination of memoir, biography and historical research to tell a layered story about Hong Kong’s history and present.
Indelible City ends up eschewing the possibility of journalistic detachment in the face of seeing a vibrant city become subject to an authoritarian regime.

Bad Art Mother by Edwina Preston

The figure of Veda Gray, the mother of this novel’s title, draws from many female artists across history who have produced art in the face of a social structure that makes it very difficult to do so.
In her anger, Harwood published a sonnet that said, when read acrostically: FUCK ALL EDITORS.
She is joined in an evocatively detailed world of restaurants and art in 1960s Melbourne by a cast of other women artists whose brilliance finds varied paths to light.
