Your question contains your answer - "It only accelerates the citizenship process for religions that originate in India. Not sure what is discriminatory about that?"
You pick and choose which religions get an "accelerated" citizenship process (whatever that means). Also India has millions of muslims (or christians) whom you can deny citizenship because it is a "foreign" religion :)

Your point is exactly the things a lot of my Hindu friends say. Freedom and prosperity are two different things. China has/had a booming economy but look at the way they are treating Muslims or dissent.
Yes, for mainstream Hindu nationalists, this is a great time, the government is fully for them. But with all due respect spare a thought for the minorities, journalists and even comedians who are sent to jail for no reason. What about CAA etc.?

I see your point sir. IMHO in these times DW is still a calm, non-biased and pleasant new source. They are not bombastic, "breaking-news" all the time sort of site. They have news from across the world presented in a matter-of-fact way like the old times (sometimes even delayed by days). So I still think it is tax money well spent :)

Yes, blame everything on the "West", the missionaries, liberals and the "opposition". If India was on it's "own" it would have been richer than USA, more progressive than EU and pigs would be flying by now.

You are right, this is a govt. site, they are known to use super old tools and tech. Won't be surprised if this is built on some ancient CMS.
