Is Neha Bora, India’s New Red Star, Modi’s Real Gen Z Threat?

Neha Bora, a 29-year-old student activist and national president of the All India Students’ Association, has emerged as a prominent figure in a generation challenging Narendra Modi’s hold on power. On October 12, she marched alongside Rahul Gandhi and his sister Priyanka at a rally to submit a Supreme Court petition seeking the removal of India’s chief election commissioner. The protests include opposition to controversial electoral-roll changes that the article says have stripped 130 million people of the right to vote. Less prominent in international coverage than the satirical Cockroach movement, Bora is known for defying security forces during demonstrations.
