Congress-Left’s mortal menace, BJP’s alternative: Mainstreaming the ‘Nationalist Muslim’

8 min read

You should come throughout plenty of banal statements about how a disaster may be a possibility. The Chinese character for disaster is popularly assumed to include two letters that characterize hazard + alternative. Although the second half, the chance, just isn’t precisely that. Do-gooders that write good books on self-improvement need us to show our disaster or hazard into alternative. As a cynic, you might say your disaster has change into their money-making alternative. If solely life’s issues may be solved with a $9.90 paperback. Anyway, coming again to our story, What if BJP can flip the left’s greatest menace into its alternative? 
What I’m saying is that this: The mainstreaming of Muslims is the largest hazard for the Dynasty-Left continuum. And it’s also the largest alternative for BJP, if solely it’s wise to seize it.

No one is extra conscious of the hazard that nationalistic, secular and peace-loving Muslims pose to leftist narratives than the left itself. They pose as a lot hazard to the left as legalising alcohol does to a moonshine operator. It shuts down their profitable enterprise.
That is why the vilest and most abusive type of criticism, typically even worse than what RW has to face, is commonly reserved for these secular Muslims. Many of those folks focused for abuse are religious, observant Muslims, some agnostic and a few overtly atheistic. But they’re all hated with an additional dose of venom by the left-liberal cabal.
Globally we’ve the likes of Tarek Fatah, Ayaan Hirsi Ali and plenty of others who’re hated by the left-liberal cabal and cancelled. Don’t imagine me? Just see the TL of any of those folks, to see the feedback from liberals.
In India too, any Muslim that doesn’t match the Owaisi, Azam Khan, Syed Ali Shah Geelani, Abbas Siddiqui mould is hated with particular depth by the Stalinist left, corrupt dynasties in addition to their serfs in media & academia. Be it Dr. Kalam, Taslima, Arif Md Khan and even Sara Ali Khan. Often, when “direct action” is deemed politically inconvenient, Islamist all-weather allies are allowed to do the job, with the left offering camouflage, obfuscation or whataboutery providers, shutting off their outrage manufacturing unit or diverting its output. They are sometimes declared ‘Sarkari Muslims and even apostates. You know what meaning within the jurisprudence of WAPO licensed “religious scholar” like Baghdadi and even our personal Feroz and Rashed Khan sahebs.
Dr. Kalam’s path to Presidency confronted a number of hurdles and ABV was abused endlessly for fielding him. He was additionally not given a second time period. We all know Tasleema was hounded out of Kolkata, then dominated by, guess who?
Left typically claims they’re solely focusing on anti-Muslim bigotry and need BJP to surrender its “hate” however that lie may be nailed fairly simply. Leftists simply don’t need BJP to enter what they see as their turf. For instance, take a look at how leftist media performs down or blacks out completely wise feedback by Bhagwat or different RSS leaders. ABV is being hailed now however he confronted as a lot abuse, if not worse when he was ruling.
Why? It’s fairly easy. 
Understand why the left hates the Kalams of this world? They are a menace to dynastic loot and farmhouse existence of their chosen media servants, bungalows and profitable gigs for left’s “intellectuals”.
These Muslim leaders or intellectuals like Kalam et al characterize the gravest menace to the profitable enterprise mannequin that has been developed with painstaking laborious work, over many years. A mannequin that has delivered them energy, privilege, and cash. And stored India third world. And Beijing completely happy.
Remember what “our Chairman” Mao mentioned? “Everything under heaven is in utter chaos; the situation is excellent”. 
Left, and by extension, the households and dynasties who are actually B-teams of one another, are closely invested in holding Muslims of their ghettos, actual or digital. When they get really “woke”, it’s GAME OVER.
Therefore, how can a person that performs the veena, has no hate for Hindus, even respects them, be allowed to change into a job mannequin or President? He is written off as a “bomb-daddy”. 
A wide range of tips have been perfected over years – the Ayodhya challenge was allowed to fester and worsen, any peaceable negotiated settlement was actively sabotaged. Giving refuge to persecuted South Asian Hindus escaping rapes and genocide in Pakistan was cleverly projected as anti-Muslim. 
Yet one other in style trick is to make use of crimes that routinely occur in a largely poor, backward agrarian society with poor legislation enforcement, judicial delays and ineffective policing and provides it communal color. 
Look at one easy instance. If you watch outdated Westerns, the scene is acquainted. Someone hustles cattle or commits some crime, they don’t go to the police. They type a posse, go after the wrongdoer and “string him up”. Instant “justice”. This doesn’t occur in right this moment’s the USA however sadly, occurs commonly in right this moment’s South Asia whether or not Congress or BJP or Muslim League is ruling. Ditto if A’s son desires to marry B’s daughter when they’re each from totally different social strata. Victims may be of any caste or faith. Obviously, economics too has a giant position to play right here. A wealthy upper-caste man is unlikely to steal cattle simply as an elite Ashraf Muslim is unlikely to. Often each the victims and the culprits share the frequent distress of poverty and financial insecurity. One day the sufferer may be Muslim one other day some Dalit and the third day another Hindu. But one incident will get wall to wall protection all the best way to NYT and WaPo and the opposite shall be buried and anybody even mentioning is a bigot for “communalising” an incident. It will clearly escape “fact-checkers” listing of “hate crimes”. Get the purpose?
The concept is to maintain odd Muslims, who in any other case haven’t any motive to hate his Hindu brethren, stay in concern, hate and seething in anger. How else will the left-dynasty enterprise mannequin work?
The smallest infraction by the Hindu RW is equated to a precursor to genocide and changed into worldwide outrage. If the act of 1 individual is condemnable, they need to be prosecuted legally, however it hardly displays on your complete ecosystem of ‘Hindu right’. When such infractions occur, removed from dousing the flames, left and its ecosystem actively followers it, generally even lighting the match when there isn’t any actual hearth. The Haridwar speech challenge is not going to be allowed to get out of entrance pages for weeks, if not months by way of the prolonged ecosystem {of professional} letter writers and different helpful innocents whereas far worse stuff focusing on Hindus is quietly buried. This makes much more Hindus, in any other case completely secular, see purple. And retains the pot boiling. 
Let me repeat. Remember what Mao mentioned? 

But as I mentioned to start with, another person’s hazard or disaster is a chance.
BJP, caricatured as higher caste social gathering has, with outstanding success, accommodated backward castes and Dalits into its fold, giving them real energy. Not “OK you can be the opposition leader but when it comes to PM it has to be La Famiglia” kind of faux energy. In truth, this success infuriates the  households and left, whose abuse of BJP or Modi by no means fails to incorporate rote textual content reminiscent of “anti-Dalit/backward”. They typically in fact, embody different routine add-ons reminiscent of “BJP is against women, farmers, workers, students” and many others., leaving you marvel who’re the ten guys that voted Modi to energy! 
Now it’s time for the subsequent massive mission – bringing on board giant sections of secular, nationalistic Muslims into the mainstream and into its imaginative and prescient. This isn’t just a favour to themselves – they may change into undefeatable – it’s the greatest reward they’ll provide to India. 
And it’s completely potential even for those who undertake a narrower definition of “Hindutva” as one thing that represents the pursuits of Hindus, not “anyone of Indian heritage” as BJP/RSS typically claims. Because, Muslims or for that matter Christians, don’t have anything towards optimistic pro-Hindu agendas if there’s one thing in it for them. The operative phrase right here is optimistic.
And on this effort, they’ll certainly guess on one factor – they may face vehement opposition, visceral hate and sustained, relentless, venomous, vicious assaults by the left-dynasty continuum.  And they are going to be enjoying in a pitch dug up and changed into a minefield by left’s ecosystem and its worldwide companions. BJP lacks, what Prof Banerji phrases “liberal privilege”. Liberal privilege is while you march beneath the banner of mass murderers, despots and womanisers all of your life and coolly wash palms with “Stalin mera mama tha kya?” when you will have upgraded from Made in China boots to Gucci.
BJP will face abuse of the kind they’ve by no means seen. Even greater than they confronted after they fought for Ram temple at Ayodhya. 
After all, in contrast to the Ram temple success, they’ll’t even flip round and declare credit score for it!

But how?
It just isn’t simple as we identified. But small steps should result in massive change. 
The path should be by way of the Kalams – the intelligentsia. And the bottom stage collection of the best, real folks, not social gathering hoppers and affect peddlers. Instead of merely letting them get thrashed about by the left, or just ignored, BJP ought to woo them and produce them on board. To some extent, that is occurring, however at a glacial tempo. It wants a big pace increase, perhaps a devoted top-level chief in cost.
But they don’t seem to be going to come back free. No, I’m not saying they may demand cash. They will demand one thing for the group in return. Something actual, not the false mirages provided by corrupt households and their much more ineffective sidekicks from their group they’ve been foolishly supporting for years. And maybe some change in BJP, actual or notion.
But what can they ask for that BJP can not present beneath its personal coverage of “Sabka saath Sabka vikas”? 
Not a lot, however right here may be different calls for.
One demand typically raised by affordable of us is that Modi ought to condemn the statements made by some “RW” of us. But they miss one essential level – Modi doesn’t go round condemning the Islamist fringe or their statements as nicely. Nor does he condemn each lynching of a Hindu or the killing of Kamlesh Tiwari by Islamists. How many occasions has he reacted to Owaisi sorts, besides maybe in some election conferences? That is his type. He doesn’t should react to each idiotic assertion by each village fool.
But that isn’t to argue that nothing extra must be executed.
What BJP must do is, use the big goodwill and unquestionable Hindu help that Modi has constructed as much as leverage Hindutva into one thing that’s optimistic for Hindus however not essentially unfavourable for anybody else. It just isn’t a zero-sum sport. It merely seeks to right centuries of decline compelled upon a folks and re-discover their glory.
And that giant hearted “Vasudhaiva kutumbakam” is baked proper into Hindutva’s genes. 
That spirit simply should be woken up, given a shine and put forth.
If executed sincerely and nicely, nothing can cease BJP or India.
