I seriously don’t understand, how whatever you wrote relates to the original comment.

I am pointing out the cultural reason for the western readers who are wondering or puzzled by the support for the current ruling party, even at this dire situation which the government could have avoided. It becomes clear when one understands what the vedas advocate, the privilege by birth offers and why it is so important over anything else for the priestly caste.

Modi is Brahmin now?

He can never be. No body can change castes. That's the worst part of vedas. Even Shivaji maharaj was not allowed to hear vedic verses because he was not from the priest caste. Modi is just an opportunist.

Citation needed. Which vedic text advocates privilege based on birth?. On what basis is Modi privileged by birth? How does any of these matter in a discussion on covid. What about other religions in India, are they not affected?
