Like the previous year, 2018 was marked by a series of vigilante attacks and gruesome acts of violence against women. The Supreme Court passed important gender-related progressive judgements, yet the institution and other public bodies witnessed unprecedented infighting, scandal, and politicization. The Indian economy showed increased growth. The year witnessed the first major electoral setback since 2014 for the ruling Bharatiya Janata Party, and foreshadowed what will likely be a hotly contested general election in 2019.

2018年的印度

与前一年一样，2018 年也发生了一系列私刑袭击和对妇女的可怕暴力行为。最高法院通过了重要的与性别相关的进步判决，但该机构和其他公共机构却目睹了前所未有的内讧、丑闻和政治化。印度经济呈现增长态势。这一年见证了执政的印度人民党自 2014 年以来的首次重大选举挫折，并预示着 2019 年大选可能会竞争激烈。
