Manish got arrested by BJP Centre Government. Last time I checked, Manish is clearly an opposition to BJP Centre Government even if he is in power in a state/territory. So the title is correct imho.

Is PM above everyone in a democracy or is Modi a king? So you use a bad name for PM, and PM will send paramilitary forces to arrest you? Who has used these words on record for opposition leaders: 'Jersey Cow', 'Congress ki Vi

I agree with you that United States is much better functioning democracy. I think this is because they have much better checks & balances than India. Their legal, press and judiciary structure is also different than India. Just one exam

Yes, history has shown that it can go that way. We all have to stay alert and raise an alarm when a democratically elected government starts trying to manipulate four pillars of Democracy: Legislature, Executive, Judiciary and Press.
