Facts: When India gained its independence, various groups of people in India had their separate ideas of how independent India should be. Secularism was not at the top of the agenda for many of those groups. One such group was Dharmik SainyaParishad (DSP). However, the party leading the movement for independent India, Secular Party of India (SPI) had the strongest say in the drafting of constitution and India constitutionally adopted secularism as the state policy.
While 65 years after independence, SPI is still ruling the government at the centre as well as many state governments, those identifying with the DSP ideology are limited in presence to one of the states in India, Kalisa, which state is also currently ruled by a regional party. In the past few years, a young man in DSP, Kapil has been mobilizing other youth in the state. He holds meetings and delivers fiercely captivating speeches in which he describes how SPI has led the nation's downfall, caused widespread corruption and poverty and promoted sycophancy and nepotism. More youths are getting hooked to his ideas every day. Some of them have written newspaper articles about senior SPI leaders and their lives of excesses lived at the cost of millions of poor and hungry Indians and the need for India to get rid of SPI.
At the annual party meeting of SPI the following year with most senior leaders of SPI Present, both from the cabinet of ministers (including the Prime Minister) at the centre and those not having taken any position in the government, several thousand men in identical dresses with guns march in and hold the party members captive. After a person who appears as Kapilgives a speech telling SPI members what wrongs their party had committed, all the SPI members are shot dead.

Facts: The Senior Ministers including the Chief Minister of Kalisa state have openly declared that they now believe in the ideology of DSP, and are refusing to cooperate with the centre in enforcing legislation imposing stricter rules regarding possession and movement of arms. The situation is fast descending into a situation where another armed attack is possible in the country, with thousands of DSP men and arms moving freely within Kalisa, sparked further by the capture of their cadre in the national capital.
