  Joke is that Narendra Modi is a chameleon, his skin colour is very flexible and can go from dark brown to pale peach depending on where campaigning is necessary.

    I think in this case it’s colorism which predates racism and may go back to the caste system in the case of India. In many cases, colorism can be how internal racism is expressed, but Modi is hyper patriotic and loves a particularly conservative form of being Indian.
