Although I agree that the Modi government is not exactly the most tolerant, the conservative ideals are not the same as conservative ideals that exist in the USA and the West.
They do share some ideas like nationalism, religious intolerance against religions like Islam(but generally accept other religions like Sikhism). But they differ in terms of other ideas. Like abortion is legal and not under attack some 1971 I believe(please correct me if I am wrong here). Article 377, which targeted homosexual sexual activities was also declared unconstitutional by the Supreme Court.
BJP government has taken steps for women empowerment, although they regressed in terms of secularism. So there is still hope that this will pass. Fingers crossed
