In the year 2014 Lok Sabha elections came close and Bhartiya Janata Party’s (BJP) luck began to rise because of growing dissatisfaction with Congress Party rule in India. Narendra Modi the longtime chief minister (head of government) of Gujarat state was chosen to lead the Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) electoral campaign by making him the party’s candidate for prime minister. Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) won with a clear majority. Modi became prime minister of India on May 26th, 2014. Before Modi coming to power in 2012 he stated that Akhand Bharat does not mean to wage war on any state but without war and political consent it can happen and he called it as Sanskritik Bharat (Cultural Bharat). The idea of Akhand Bharat and Sanskritik Bharat was resolved as it was sought that combining India and Pakistan will increase the number of Muslims so, they discarded this goal altogether.
Modi and Hindutva Ideology Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) and the ideology of Hindutva gained more control in the Indian politics during Modi’s reign the reasons are as follow:
• Modi has his own aggressive personality cult • Anti-Muslims and Anti-Pakistani sentiments • Radicalization
• Jingoistic nationalism (Rashid, 2020).
In the year 2013 court rejected a petition to prosecute Modi which was filed by a widow of Mr. Jafri who was killed in 2002 riot. The court stated that the widow of Mr. Jafri didn’t have enough proofs that Modi has done such act of violence. Since Modi has become the 14th Prime Minister of India there have been increased cases violence against minority. This shows the rise of Saffron extremism in India.
India has the law for the protection of cow in the state where the violation of the law made Muslims and Christians face great issue as Indians that strictly follow their religion and have a practice that they will kill those people to death if they see any individual trading or slaughtering cow because cow is sacred to them. The case gets crueler when a Muslims were caught red-handed by Hindu people. Between the year 2015 -2018 there have been many attacks against Christians and Muslims and Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP0 justifies it. Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) political leader (Modi) talks about the Hindu culture due to which majority of Hindu support him, as religion is a very sensitive issue and people get attracted to it easily, people have emotional feeling towards their religion and hope for the eternal peace by following it. In the year 2018 Mohan Bhagwat (RSS) stated that he can make six million radicals instantly mobilized faster than Indian army. Today the ruling part Bhartiya Janata Party (BJP) refuses to accept saffron extremism and has termed such suggestion anti- Indian. In 2019 congress spokesman stated neither its Rahul Gandhi nor any other functional party its “saffron terror” Bhartiya Janata Party has been successful in stating Congress as Anti-Hindu.
