Quick Glance: India's Modi Attacks Pro-Muslim Rivals in Election Shift
  • Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist party have begun attacking opposition rivals, claiming they favor minority Muslims, in an effort to energize their hardline base after the start of general elections last week.

  • Modi referred to Muslims as 'infiltrators' who have 'more children', linking it to an alleged election plan by the main opposition Congress party to redistribute Hindu wealth among Muslims, a claim denied by the Congress.

  • Modi's government has faced accusations of discrimination against India's 200 million Muslims, but has denied them, emphasizing its work for the welfare of all citizens.

  • Modi initially focused on development, welfare, and national pride in his campaign, but shifted focus back to core voters after the first phase, addressing issues of joblessness and rural distress.

Beyond the hype: Why the BJP is eyeing Tamil Nadu’s most prosperous region
Quick Glance: Can the BJP Make Inroads in the Southern Indian States of Tamil Nadu and Kerala?
  • The BJP may increase its vote share in these states, but votes may not translate into seats in parliament.

  • The BJP has had a poor electoral track record in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. Despite aggressively wooing Tamil voters, polls suggest that the party may not win seats in the parliaments of these states.

  • In Tamil Nadu, the BJP is focusing on promoting Modi and a Tamil leader to attract young voters. In Kerala, the party is trying to court the support of the Christian community and showcase Modi's development strategy.

  • Despite intense campaigning in both states, it is expected that the DMK-Congress alliance will sweep all 39 seats in Tamil Nadu and the Congress-led UDF will secure 17 out of 20 seats in Kerala. The BJP may only see an increase in its vote share without winning any seats.
