Weakened democratic institutions, ever increasing authoritarianism, growing fascism, brainwashed masses to discard any form of opposition to govt on the basis of ultra nationalism, corporate media's deliberate attempt to keep opposition out of picture, using various state apparatuses to frame cases and punish members of opposition parties are few of the things mainly responsible for opposition looking so shit in India.
Opposition looking so shit is because opposition is one dynastic family hell bent on maintaining their power hold. The ruling party is taking advantage of it and is pushing its authoritarianism, fascism, and religious division without check. If the opposition truly wants to get better, they need to kick this family out. Simple as that. Instead all they do is theatrics of members of this family pretending to quit, and the others rallying to keep them in power. The only other solution is to wait another decade until this opposition party is completely irrelevant, and the third party (AAP) grow bigger and become the new opposition.
