The word ‘dissenting’ means ‘showing a strongly different opinion on a particular question, especially an official suggestion or plan, a legal decision, or a popular belief’. ‘Dissenting into something’ is incorrect. The correct word to be used here is ‘descending’. He reasoned that reform would be futile, as nobody would surrender power peacefully, and he grew ever more despondent in the 1930s when European politics was descending into its fascist abyss and India was approaching its moment of reckoning.
