I have always called these Gujjus kale angrez. I called them this way back in 2015 when demonetisation happened. It was a scheme to whitewash BJP's and Ambani's money.

I have talked to gujrati middle class people and even they are unhappy with BJP- billionaires rule

Only a handful of billionaires are benefiting from the government policy.

They are not going to come in power next time, and BJP has essentially ended up doing things that will never allow them to come back in power for a century.
