It's highly dramatised but the incidents that happened in reality are showcased amazingly well. <br /><br />The reason I am bringing this up here is because in Mexico Government's funding came from Drug lords, and they used to work closely and based on their deals, the next president was elected. <br /><br />However, the similar situation is in India right now. We don't really have drug lords here, but we surely have a mainstream media who can't help but support Modi because if they don't, they might have to let go their top employees because no matter what they can't utter a word against Modi. <br /><br />Modi government owns media; and a country where opinions are greatly influenced by media, it's a great power to have. <br /><br />A lot of people have started noticing it, but not enough to change the next prime minister of India.Devinder Maheshwarinoreply@blogger.com
