Yogendra Yadav is at it again – delivering another lecture dripping with self-pity and sanctimonious drivel. When viewed objectively, the Bengaluru talk titled “Re-Enchanting Democracy, Reclaiming the Republic” is less about his concepts of democracy. Instead, it sounded more like a cry for relevance by a man whose political career is best summarized as “missed predictions and lost elections.”
Yadav’s central thesis? Democracy is failing because nationalists are winning. Modi’s 2019 victory, Trump’s election in 2016, Netanyahu’s rule in Israel, and Erdogan’s reign in Turkey are apparently reasons to panic. Yogendra Yadav paints a picture where majority politics is inherently oppressive, while conveniently forgetting his own attempts to divide India’s majority for political gain. Let’s debunk his claims and expose his hypocrisy.
The Laments of Yogenda Yadav: When Nationalists Win, Le-Li Gang Cries
Salim @_YogendraYadav says Democracies are bad for Citizens.
– Benefits of a Democracy is Fictional
– Democracies don't improve rule of law and condition of citizens
– Democracies unleash chaos, corruption, criminality

Yogendra Yadav laments that democracy has become a “pretense” because nationalist leaders like PM Modi have united a fractured majority. Though not stated obviously, his subtle references in terms of Bharat mean that when Hindus rise above caste and language divides to assert their civilizational identity, democracy becomes oppressive. Why? Because this unity renders the “Liberal-Left Intellectual” LeLi laybook useless.
For decades, the likes of Yogendra Yadav thrived on exploiting schisms within Indian society—pitting caste against caste, region against region, and language against language.
A united Hindu vote frustrates their narrative. Perpetual victimhood and weakened societal elements are their prime weapons for manipulating political discourse. Thus, it seems that Yogendra Yadav’s real gripe isn’t with democracy! He and his ilk are angry about losing the power to dictate terms to Bharat. They never raise vouces of concern over Islmist nations where voices of the minority are extinguished! His ilk would never dare to speak of the Chinese version of democracy where all forms of opposition is suppressed! Yadav’s brand celebrate such democracies while negating the voice of majority politics!
Not many realize how close India came to a Communist takeover in 2020
Yogendra Yadav and other radicals had proposed plan to treat all cash, property, bonds, etc in India as "national resources"

Nationalist victories represent the true spirit of democracy – because they place the nation and its needs over the narrative of elites.
Nationalist democracies show what happens when a nation’s majority rises above petty divisions to demand accountability and progress. Bharat is a prime example of a thriving democracy where the victimhood narrative lost its appeal. The people rejected intellectual elites who pontificate in conferences while living off the privileges of the very democracy they claim to critique.
Majority Politics Scares the LeLi Hypocrites
Never forget. Yogendra Yadav was a part of several whatsapp groups made for the Delhi anti-Hindu riots conspiracy. He was a part of the 8th Dec 2019 conspiracy meeting held at 6/6 Jungpura – office of Prashant Bhushan. https://t.co/96y8PJGSLi pic.twitter.com/fMMeu148dT

Yogendra Yadav argues that majoritarian politics dilutes democracy and constitutional values. Yet he conveniently forgets the alternative that he overtly supports. Yadav and his band prefer a fragmented electorate manipulated by divisive rhetoric. To the LeLi Gang, a coalition is a more successful form of democracy as no clear objective succeeds, and the nation’s policies center around appeasement.
People like Yogendra Yadava and their ideology are the real enemy of democracy.
Yadav claims secular liberals abandoned nationalism and religion. That’s rich, considering it’s the same “secular liberal” class that vilifies any expression of Hindu pride while glorifying every other religious identity in Bharat. By handing over the civilizational narrative to nationalists, these liberals have only exposed their inability to understand the soul of Bharat.
What Yogendra Yadav fails to grasp is that a united Hindu society isn’t oppressive; it’s liberating.
For decades, political opportunists like him exploited caste divisions to perpetuate dynasties and ideologies. Today, when Hindus unite, they demand equal rights, fair governance, and civilizational pride. This terrifies the LeLi gang, as it strips them of the tools they used to control India’s destiny.
The Irony of Yadav’s Anti-Democracy Lecture
Communists want to retain power with them by hook or by crook. Wherever they lost power they tried to grab it by violence. Communists and Urban Naxals like Yogendra Yadav are now desperate since Democracy has kept them out of power for far too long. Need to be careful of them. https://t.co/3dKk3tgISX

It’s ironic that Yadav, a self-styled Democrat, finds fault with elections that he admits are free and fair. He blames “unequal access to money and media” but doesn’t acknowledge how LeLi outfits have dominated media narratives for decades. He accuses the majority of being manipulated. However, he ignores how divisive politics was the lifeline of his own failed campaigns.
Yadav’s call to “strengthen constitutional constraints on majoritarianism” is a thinly veiled attempt to undermine the democratic mandate.

Constitutions are indeed about checks and balances, but they aren’t meant to override the will of the people. Yadav’s obsession with constitutional constraints reeks of elitist disdain for grassroots movements that challenge his worldview.
A United Bharat: The Nightmare of Opportunists
Yogendra Yadav is not concerned about democracy! Instead, his speech is more about protecting his failed politics. A united Bharat, where Hindus rise above caste and language divides, is his worst nightmare. It’s a nation that no longer falls for the divide-and-rule tactics of pseudo-intellectuals. It seems that LeLi Gang is living under a delusion that they are still relevant as movers and shakers of the political conversations.
Nationalism doesn’t undermine democracy; it strengthens it. It ensures that the voice of the majority isn’t drowned out by a handful of elites or “victims” preaching from ivory towers. Yadav’s critiques aren’t rooted in concern for democracy – they’re rooted in his bitterness at being rendered irrelevant.
As Bharat moves forward, failed politicians and fake psephologists like Yogendra Yadav can either adapt or watch from the sidelines. Bharat’s tide of nationalism is reshaping the future of the republic.
Democracy isn’t broken, Mr. Yadav – It’s simply evolving without you and your ilk!
