Are you serious? I wish there were an an emoji for a hollow, scornful laugh.
India is not an autocratic country only as long as the autocrats at any level don't deem you a threat. Otherwise you are screwed. When the law makers and law enforcers form a tight bond, what is the meaning of "protected" and "rule of law"?
Try getting the law involved when you don't want to pay a bribe.
Try peacefully protesting for people's rights.

There is v little room for dissent under this govt.
Try appealing to the law by getting the local MLA/MP's goons off your land.
I could go on ....
