Imran Khan didn't allow the USA to build bases in Pakistan. He didn't lock down the country during COVID-19, even though the USA recommended it. He got ousted.
Sheikh Hasina didn't allow the USA control over St. Martin Island. She got ousted.
See the pattern.
Some Indian actions seem to have angered the USA, e.g., Buying fuel from Russia, BRICS membership, etc. So, the opposition voice is getting stronger in India. Some strong powers are secretly supporting the opposition. What will the Indian government do now?
Let us look at history. China was facing protests in Hong Kong. They used the excuse of COVID-19 to lock down Hong Kong. The protests subsided, and the lockdown ended.
I expect the Indian government to use the excuse of Monkeypox to lock down parts of the (or maybe complete) country. Once the opposition protests have subsided, lockdowns will end.
