PM Modi Bhiwani Speech Analysis: Continuing his shamelessness before the sixth phase of Lok Sabha elections, PM Modi claimed in his Bhiwani rally speech that if opposition parties form the government, he will cut off electricity to people's homes. Praveen Gautam's analysis of what senior journalists Ravish Kumar and Rohini Singh said regarding such statements by PM Modi.
What has been conspicuous in all three of the electoral campaigns before us is of course the larger-than-life persona of Narendra Modi.
The common thread that runs through the election campaigns of the Modi decade has been the systematic mediatisation of the Modi cult right from the days when he appeared on ‘Aap ki Adalat’ (India TV) in April 2014 and responded to Rajat Sharma’s supposed “grilling” before an audience consciously packed with cheering supporters.
In 2019, he personally addressed more rallies than any other BJP politician, constantly messaging that every vote cast for the party in the election will go to him personally.
This time, even before the elections were announced, we had the ‘Modi Guarantee’ thrust on us through public hoardings and newspaper advertisements.

https://youtu.be/7LWA-rP5TKw?t=1579 PM Says PM Says "Congress To Distribute Assets Among Infiltrators" This 'urban Naxal' mindset, mothers and sisters, they will not even leave your 'mangalsutra'. They can go to that level... The Congress manifesto says they will calculate the gold with mothers and sisters, get information about it, and then distribute that property. They will distribute it to whom - Manmohan Singh's government had said Muslims have the first right on the country's assets," PM Modi said at the rally on Sunday.
Huge Row After PM Says "Congress To Distribute Assets Among Infiltrators" https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/lok-sabha-elections-2024-pm-narendra-modi-invokes-manmohan-singhs-muslim-remark-to-jab-congress-party-rebuts-5492647
Lok Sabha elections 2024: "Manmohan Singh's government had said Muslims have the first right on the country's assets," April 22, 2024 https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/lok-sabha-elections-2024-pm-narendra-modi-invokes-manmohan-singhs-muslim-remark-to-jab-congress-party-rebuts-5492647 Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, reacting to PM Modi's attack on Dr Singh, in a post on the microblogging website X said the Prime Minister now wants to divert the attention of the public from issues.
Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav, who is also a part of the Opposition bloc INDIA, criticised PM Modi over the speech. "Not only the country but the whole world also knows Prime Minister Narendra Modi lies, the way how he spread lies about the Congress's 'Nyay Patra' and former Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh is an example of dirty politics."
Slamming the Prime Minister for his remarks, AIMIM chief and Hyderabad MP Asaduddin Owaisi posted on X, "Modi today called Muslims infiltrators and people with many children. Since 2002 till this day, the only Modi guarantee has been to abuse Muslims and get votes. If one is talking about the country's wealth, one should know that under Modi's rule the first right to India's wealth has been of his wealthy friends. 1% of Indians own 40% of the country's wealth. Common Hindus are made to fear Muslims while their wealth is being used to enrich others."
Petition to the Election Commission of India to take strict action on hate speech of Narendra Mod: .. This speech violates the model code of conduct set by the ECI. It distorts the facts which are already available in the public domain posing a serious challenge to all the initiatives taken by the ECI to prevent fake news and fact check all forms of communication. By targeting Muslims using a pejorative language to seek votes, it seriously undermines India's stature as the ‘Mother of Democracy’ in the world. ..The ECI's failure to take any action against such hate speech will only undermine its credibility and autonomy that has been safeguarded and upheld by a series of exemplary officers before you.

Indian Electoral Politics: Shifting Sands
Seven decades down the line the electoral scene has changed for the worse and is currently dominated by emotive issues. The foundation of derailing the ‘this worldly’ issues was the Ram Temple movement. This movement became stronger after the implementation of Mandal Commission report. Since then the domination of emotive, identity issues is on the rise. This is reflected by the fact that in 2019, no party dared to utter the word secularism, as claimed by the winner of 2019 elections, Mr. Narendra Modi himself. He presented it as a trophy for the efforts of RSS-BJP’s political success.

It is in this track that any issue can be given a religious turn as we witnessed its peak in the coining of phrase ‘Corona Jihad’. This showed how electoral politics can be reduced merely to game of identity issues. BJP has mastered this art over a period of last few decades. The media, which is prostrating to BJP ideology, is putting its best efforts to magnify the doings of communal stream.
Not to be left behind, Arvind Kejrival is trying to compete which these divisive efforts revolving around identity issues, in his own unique smart ways. The AAP, which in a way, is an alternate model of communal politics; is playing its Hindutva/communal card with shrewdness. Kajriwal party is also an example of blind subservience to the dictator by the other leaders of that party. As Kejriwal demanded this; all his cronies, stated saying the same. The peak of this was Atishi Marlena, who stated that this demand of Laxmi-Ganesh is not merely Kejriwal demand, it is the aspiration of 130 crore Indians! Most of the dictatorial tendencies believe they are speaking for the whole country. This is a duplicate of what Narendra Modi, when he was Chief Minister of Gujarat, used to say that he is talking on behalf of Five Crore Gujratis. India needs a party which can accommodate all sections of society with equality and dignity, apart from welfare; it also promotes employment and proactively deals with marginalized sections of society. We need a party where religion is not mixed with politics. For many, AAP began with a big promise for a better politics, but its reality is there for all to see with its trajectory leading to demanding Laxmi and Ganesh on currency notes and dumping of Jan Lokpal in the dustbin of Hisotry!
