Never said that. The comment I replied back make it sounds like India is the only democracy which does this and is not a real democracy like the other democracies. Obviously it's stupid to put activists in jail for bogus claims. And there is no justification in doing it even though other countries are doing it. It's pretty obvious to anyone with a decent IQ.

The comment actually says the opposite, that even "traditional democratic countries" have big problems. That is to say, it's always possible to improve and all improvement is valuable. Already India, while unquestionably flawed, is regarded as more democratic than some European countries.

I agree. India has a lot to improve on. It's far from perfect. And it's very hard. 1.4 billion people. 20+ languages. So many religions. So many castes. But it still continue to work. With its flaws. But it's one of the thing that I am the most happy about this country. That democracy is still alive. Some more alive in some states than the other. We have come a long way since the British Colonization and the times before that. I think the future would be more brighter for democracy than last 50 years.
