That's true, but I really doubt the author wrote it from that perspective. Her elitist/leftist bias is apparent. Read this:
"So, who does one choose to project as enemy number one? Surely not a motley group of educated, intelligent and committed men when all it requires on the other side is massaging the ego of one self-appointed guardian of the moral, spiritual and physical well-being of “120 crore people of the country.” "
That's outright ridiculous as the motley group of "educated, intelligent and committed" men are as much of self-appointed guardians of Indians' morality like Baba Ramdev is. And just because he is a yoga guru, doesn't mean he can't be intelligent and not committed!
