Indian ruling party, Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) appears to be having its own way to decolonize India from a colonial mindset.

On 8th September 2022, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that “Rajpath was for the British for whom the people of India were slaves. It was a symbol of colonialism. Now, its architecture has changed, and its spirit has also changed”.

However, on 9th September 2022, Indian Ministry of Home Affairs declared a 1-day mourning over the demise of Elizabeth II. It declared: “On the day of Mourning (11 September), the National Flag will be flown at half mast throughout India on all buildings where the National Flag is flown regularly and there will be no official entertainment on the day.”

Is the Indian government attempting to speed up its efforts to finalize free trade agreement (FTA) with the United Kingdom or just attempting to appease British critics of the Indian government?

Whatever the reason might be, it is entirely unjustifiable to mourn the death of Elizabeth II since she did nothing in her life for India other than wasting money that her parents stole from India during the brutal colonization of South Asia.

Monarchist Party condemns this upcoming mourning event as nothing but a completely unnecessary and unjustifiable move.
