Because there's a sustained, successful effort at lowering the status of, and then wiping out pagan practices and festivals, at the 'mass' end, while pushing the wedge issues of caste, as well as SJWism on gender. At the elite level, Hindu religiosity is frowned upon. 1/2

The state is manifestly anti-Hindu thru articles 25-30, protections of which aren't extended to Hinduism, and temple monies continue to be depleted into secular causes or the latest - monetization.

Despite neo marxist hysteria, the current 'Hindu nationalist' administration has not touched any of these large issues, and has given no indication that it intends to. So after the monumental effort at electing a 'Hindu nationalist' PM, there will be no reversal

Here is my thought: "Hindu Nationalist" administration cannot do what is beyond its reach.. Q is, is it beyond its reach for some deep reasons, or just bcz X or Y are not doing what you want them to do? (I am leaning towards "deep reasons", not necessarily known to them tho)

The 'deep reasons' IMHO are mundane - there is a lack of brainpower and a denuded long term vision. The RSS' envisions that as long as people are made 'proud to be Indian', everything's in good shape. RSS shunned the premier Hindu intellectuals of the past century - SRG and RS

Again, to an outsider, it looks like this: You think X shd hv happened, but clearly Y happened. Why? and what can be done about it? "I ask, O fathers, not to challenge, but to know"

The deeper reasons are that Hinduism has not yet adapted itself to the modern world - either to industrialization or the Abrahamic cults. The intellectual resources needed for such an effort appear exhausted fighting the Mughals and then the British.

No Hindu leadership since the 19th century Nationalists have been capable of what's required - a sustained grappling with the present, a renaissance and incorporation of ancient wisdom, and a vision for the future. Perhaps it's already dead and we're just zombies.
