In this season of politics, there is a rain of coincidences. The first coincidence was made when the news of Operation Sindoor’s debate began under the operation of Pahalgam’s responsible poor. And the second coincidence was made when the decision of Home Minister Amit Shah was stamped on the Malegaon Blast’s decision on the matter of Home Minister Amit Shah while responding to the debate in Parliament, in which it was said that terrorism has to take care of terrorism. That is, the theory of ‘saffron terrorism’ was also destroyed with the release of blast convicts.
In fact, on July 30, Home Minister Amit Shah had said on the issue of Operation Sindoor and Terrorism in the Rajya Sabha that a Hindu could never be a terrorist. And the next day, that is, the decision of Malegaon Blast came today. This decision has failed the theory of saffron terrorism kept in the UPA government. And the point of Home Minister Amit Shah proved to be correct.
On Wednesday, the Home Minister was not only giving his views on Hindu terrorism. He left no chance to awaken Hindus and surround the opposition on the pretext of slogans like Operation Mahadev and Har Har Mahadev. This opportunity was also given to him by the opposition that he could be attacked on these issues. The opposition had to talk about the shortcomings of Operation Sindoor, had to bring stories of government failures, questions did not happen like Pahalgam in future, but questions were being asked why Operation Mahadev was named after the God of Hinduism?
Hindu in Shah’s speech
A new controversy was arising in the country over the names of the military operations of the Indian Army. Some leaders of the opposition have objected to names like Operation Sindoor, Operation Mahadev and Operation Shiv Shakti. People like Samajwadi Party MP Ruchivira objected to the army being politicized by these names and it is being seen with the glasses of religion.
During the discussion, Shah responded to these allegations of the opposition and accused the Congress of deliberately raising saffron terrorism. Shah said that a Hindu can never be a terrorist. This statement was an attempt to separate the Hindu community from terrorism and reject the concept of Congress’s saffron terrorism. Shah, while dismissing the allegations of the opposition, said that Har Har Mahadev Chhatrapati was the joy of Shivaji’s army.
Shah mentioned slogans inspired by other Hindu deities used in the army. He linked the bravery of the army to the pride of Hindu culture and said that many regiments of the Indian Army, such as Gorkha Regiment or Maratha Light Infantry, Har Har Mahadev or Jai Maa in their war slogans, use Hindu religious slogans like Mahadev or Jai Maa. He connected these slogans to the morale and patriotism of the soldiers and said that Hinduism was made a symbol of national pride.
Priyanka gave a chance to BJP by calling Pahalgam victims Indian
Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi has done the limit. Regarding the victims killed in Pahalgam, he said that he was killed due to being an Indian. While it is stable that in the Pahalgam attack, the terrorists had asked people to teach Kalma and asked their religion. A Nepali also lost his life due to being a Hindu.
It is obvious that BJP got a chance on this attitude of Priyanka. The Home Minister, while responding to these things of the opposition, openly talked about Hindus. Generally, the government has been taking their names when Muslims or other minorities suffer in the country, but the suffering of Hindus has been seen as Indians. For the first time it happened that a Home Minister was talking about Hindus.
Now the question arises that all this happened in a natural way or it was done under any planning. As it happened, Shah is going to benefit Shah in future. The Home Minister has done his politics with the cadre of the RSS. Therefore, it is not surprising to talk about Hindus naturally. But if this work is done strategically, it cannot be denied.
Hindu politics, Congress vs BJP
The Congress party has been secular to say for about 4 decades before independence and after independence. It has been a Hindu at his core. The BJP has understood that as long as the Congress was Hindu, it continued to rule India. Institutions like Sangh, Jana Sangh or Ram Rajya Praja Parishad got a chance to emerge before the Hindu Congress. Ever since the appeasement of minorities in the Congress, the BJP started getting stronger on the interests of Hindus. Today, in the states where Hindus still vote for Congress, BJP is not getting stronger. For example, this is the reason for BJP not being strong yet in Punjab and Kerala.
Amit Shah knows that Modi’s becoming a Hindu heart emperor has been effective for him. Who will have to become a Hindu heart emperor to remain second after Modi or Modi after Modi. Perhaps this is the reason that this time Shah has selected and surrounded the opposition on such issues so that the hearts of Hindus can be won.
