Once, leaders fought fiercely but respectfully. Today, Parliament often echoes the noise of social media; where outrage sells, not argument. Even Amit Shah once mimicked Gandhi. Modi has used personal jabs too. The real concern? Coarseness is no longer an exception; it’s becoming the rule. Scholars say it began with TV turning politics into performance, and social media turning it into a virality race. Outrage travels faster than reason. And now, abuse is sometimes performance; calculated, rehearsed, engineered for clicks. But let’s be honest: democracy is also becoming more inclusive. As power moved beyond the elite, language got rawer, rooted in real streets. Still, the loss of dignity in debate? That’s something to worry about. Because if Parliament becomes a stage for mockery, not reasoning; who will listen to the ideas?
