The Hindu Vocab On The PM\u2019s Speech In Rajasthan<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Demonising minorities and the idea of redistribution is core to the BJP\u2019s politics<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the main features of Narendra Modi\u2019s politics is his\u00a0reliance (the state of depending on or trusting in something or someone<\/strong>) <\/strong>on an unapologetic brand of right-wing rhetoric\u00a0that is moored in demagoguery, hate speeches against minorities and the use of dog whistles \u2014 political messaging intended (to have as a plan or purpose<\/strong>) <\/strong>to please the bigoted sections of his support base. On Sunday, all these three aspects were on full display when Mr.\u00a0Modi claimed that the Congress party would distribute the wealth of Indians among Muslims\u00a0and that they were people with \u201clarge number[s] of children\u201d and \u201cinfiltrators\u201d. He also said that his predecessor (someone who had a job or a position before someone else, or something that comes before another thing in time or in a series<\/strong>), Manmohan Singh, had stated that \u201cMuslims had first claim on the country\u2019s resources\u201d. None of these statements is close to being accurate. In its manifesto, the Congress has promised a socio-economic caste census to strengthen affirmative (relating to a statement that shows agreement or says “yes”<\/strong>) <\/strong>action, besides establishing an authority to monitor the distribution of surplus land among the poor and economically weaker sections. There are independent surveys to indicate (to show, point, or make clear in another way<\/strong>) <\/strong>how wealth inequality has increased dramatically (suddenly or obviously<\/strong>) <\/strong>under the 10 years of BJP rule. The government\u2019s policies of tax breaks to corporates by slashing taxes, more dependence on indirect taxes, and individual taxes forming a greater component of the tax bucket (53.3%) versus corporate tax (46.5%), have evidently resulted in a greater skew in wealth ownership.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dr. Singh, in 2006, had said that his government needed to prioritise plans that would uplift sections from the SCs, STs, OBCs, women and minority sections, especially Muslims. And that in a society such as India\u2019s, the marginalised had the first claim to resources. Since then, this statement has been twisted by the Hindutva right wing and Mr. Modi has, yet again, taken recourse to doing so. There is enough evidence (facts, information, documents, etc. that give reason to believe that something is true<\/strong>) <\/strong>that fertility rates among Muslims are close to that of Hindus and the Census \u2014\u00a0inexplicably delayed by the Union Home Ministry\u00a0\u2014 could show a drastic reduction (the act of making something, or of something becoming, smaller in size, amount, degree, importance, etc<\/strong>) <\/strong>in fertility rates across all sections as past Censuses and other credible surveys such as the NFHS have shown. The term, \u201cinfiltrator\u201d, is a crass term often used as a dog whistle. The facts are easily available and well-known but that has not deterred the rabble-rousers from whipping up a frenzy. Sadly, India\u2019s public sphere has been contaminated (poisonous or not pure<\/strong>) <\/strong>with disinformation for over a decade. The use of social media messaging and television channels to amplify such rhetoric (speech or writing intended to be effective and influence people<\/strong>) <\/strong>has made rabble-rousing immune to the consequences (a result of a particular action or situation, often one that is bad or not convenient<\/strong>) <\/strong>of being proven false. Besides, parties such as the BJP have been uncomfortable with aspects of social justice and egalitarianism that include redistribution and that explains its use of a demonisation of \u201cothers\u201d as a way to distract (to make someone stop giving their attention to something<\/strong>) <\/strong>from questions related to equity and casteism and social churning.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
