Delhi based newspaper the Indian Express says violence in India is due to Narendra Modi's policies based on religious hatred and bias.                    

In an opinion piece, the paper writes that since BJP government's coming to power, Muslims in India lost their jobs, were lynched by mobs and most recently the Citizenship Amendment Act dealt a final blow to their rights as equal citizens of a democratic country.

The paper opines that Modi's image as a statesman has been replaced as a fascist and racist due to his policies that have alienated the Muslims.
