Narendra Modi for Prime Minister : Will he bring BJP to power in 2014

  • 5 years ago
India News : It's possible that the politics of development alone, as is being epitomised by BJP mascot Narendra Modi, won't be enough to bring the party to power in 2014. Therefore, the easier option is to play one community against the other. As political parties prepare for the rough and tumble of 2014, the right-wing BJP has emerged as a key challenger. It increasingly began to appear that the polls would be fought on the issues of a weakening economy, stubbornly high prices and a series of high-profile corruption scandals. Not religion. What then has changed? Muslims form about 18% of UP's 200-million population, rendering them politically significant for that reason alone. Of the 403 seats in the UP assembly, they are said to be influential in one-third. Statistics show that parties have won elections by cornering sizeable votes from low-caste Hindus and Muslims. Driving a wedge between majority Hindus and Muslims, India's largest minority of more than 150 million people, tends to help all parties. Hindu nationalists have typically made use of this. In June, riots erupted in parts of Bihar soon after the ruling JD(U) snapped its ties with the BJP.
