First of all there is nothing called Hindu nationalist. India is the most diverse & secular country with all religions. In fact it is the country with the 3rd largest population of muslims in the world (after indonesia, pakisthan).India's identity does not rest on being hindu but being secular and diverse. Combining hindus and nationalism together seems like an effort to malign hindus. Seriously, why cant muslims be nationalist ?? Does that mean to say Muslims in India don't care about India or anti national?? The above piece is definitely a hit piece to malign either Hindus or India or both by implying india is a religious country (nobody gives a rats ass about religion in india, unless its western media) - so please take this with a huge grain of salt.
Secondly, alternatives are good. Isn't that a free market thing? why should twitter be the only place - social network? As a food for thought - How do you feel if we start calling GOP as Christian Nationalists ?
movers-n-packers/goods shipping company is a front end to a sophisticated intelligence gathering &e spionage program of china. Just like how HUAWEI is threat to US. Nobody is dying by banning bunch of games, chill !!
It all started with great firewall of china, didn't it ? The segregation of internet for political purposes has been there for number of years.

India has all the right to protect its economy and people from chinese spying and tech dependency . Is nt that what US is doing with tariffs and bringing back jobs??
"Do they really want to start a trade war with China?"
