Opposition’s castes cut, Sangh’s Hindutva card, know what’s cooking behind the scenes:

News India Live, Digital Desk: There is a saying in politics “the road to Delhi goes through UP”, but this time the matter is a little different. It seems that after experimenting in the political laboratory of Bihar, the entire focus of RSS and BJP has shifted to Uttar Pradesh.

Whatever the results and equations of Bihar elections may be indicating, the inside news is that Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) has geared up for the upcoming battle of UP (Mission UP). And this time too the trump card may be the same old but most effective ‘Hindutva card’.

Let us understand in simple language how politics is going to turn in UP after Bihar.

After Bihar, why is it UP’s turn now?

Actually, BJP and Sangh know very well that UP is their strongest stronghold. But here, BJP needs a ‘masterstroke’ to deal with the way the opposition (especially SP and Congress) is mobilizing castes by raising the issue of ‘caste census’ and PDA.

According to reports, the Sangh believes that the only solution to the caste politics of the opposition is “Hardline Hindutva” And “Nationalism” Is. The wave of ‘cultural nationalism’ will be raised again to unify the caste-divided Hindu vote bank.

What is the plan of Sangh (RSS)?

If sources are to be believed, the Sangh has increased its activism at the grassroots level in UP. His strategy is clear:

1. Harmony Campaign: To go among the backward and downtrodden class and give the message that “We are all one.” Breaking the walls of caste and bringing everyone under the ‘Hindu’ identity.
2. Temples and Culture: Ram temple has been built in Ayodhya, now people’s emotions will be connected through issues or cultural heritage like Kashi and Mathura.
3. Door to Door Contact: Sangh volunteers will once again go from village to village and create an atmosphere, just like it happened in 2014 or 2017.

Yogi Adityanath: ‘Face’ and ‘weapon’ of strategy

If there is anyone at the center of this entire ‘Mission UP’, it is him. Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath (CM Yogi Adityanath)In the eyes of the Sangh, Yogi is that brand of Hindutva, in front of whose shine caste equations become blurred, His rhetoric like “If we divide, we will be divided” (if we look at the recent context) or his strict image on law and order, sets this narrative,

The Sangh wants Yogi’s face to be presented more strongly so that he can consolidate Hindu votes. Perhaps the equations were different in Bihar, but the nature of UP is different, and here the magic of ‘Baba’ and the action of ‘Bulldozer’ both fit.

challenge to the opposition

Now it will be interesting to see that when on one hand the opposition will talk about “livelihood and caste”, will BJP’s card of “religion and nation” prevail over them? Bihar elections have definitely given a lesson to the Sangh that there should be no lack in preparation.
