The opposition alliance that aimed to oust Modi appears to be cracking just before India's elections

India’s beleaguered opposition parties, which are beset with ideological differences and personality clashes, joined hands last year to unseat popular Prime Minister Narendra Modi and defeat his ruling Bharatiya Janata Party’s electoral juggernaut. That alliance appears to be cracking just ahead of general elections in which Modi is eyeing a third consecutive term in power. Riven by internal rivalries, political defections and lack of agreements on seat-sharing, the opposition is disintegrating at a time when Modi’s popularity has surged after he opened a Hindu temple in northern Ayodhya city, fulfilling his party’s long-held Hindu nationalist pledge. National elections in India are expected over a period of staggered voting in April and May.

#RamRajya => #HinduNationalist

Strong #Hijri calendar envy: #Modi said that the sunrise of January 22 is not just a date in the calendar but “origin of a new time cycle”

Strong #Muharram vibes: #Modi said, “Today, I also apologise to Lord Shri Ram. There must be something lacking in our effort, sacrifice and penance that we could not do this work for so many centuries. Today the work has been completed. I believe that Lord Shri Ram will definitely forgive us today.”

Contrary to claims from #Hindutva (#HinduNationalist) circles today, he protected #Hindu temples. He employed more #Hindus in his administration than any prior #Mughal ruler.

The year of a Hindu Nationalist surge and a clearer Hindutva agenda

The year 2019 ends with increased fears in the minds of many Muslims and unease among liberals. The Hindu Nationalist surge – for which the anti-corruption movements of the UPA days ironically created space – is premised, inter alia, on the belief that liberals are not to be trusted as they were biased against Hindus.
