With arrogance of power and Machiavellin politics, the RSS-BJP combine is trying to appropriate, nay to misappropriate, India’s glorious past. The latest in this regard is the call for Bharat Ratna for Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. The Maharashtra BJP incorporated the demand as part of its manifesto along with asking for a similar honour for Mahatma Phule. This was followed by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and party president Amit Shah openly justifying the demand. Amit Shah went much further and said that our history must be rewritten.

The assembly election results carry two kinds of messages: one for the incumbent BJP governments in the states that people’s patience is wearing thin; more importantly, there is a national message, which has implications for both the ruling parties as well as the opposition at the Centre.

What is the most significant message of the Haryana and Maharashtra Assembly election to the BJP? The message is this: the ongoing economic slowdown is finally starting to show up as a non-trivial electoral determination. BJP’s Haryana performance can be explained by a re-consolidation of Jat votes against the party. Indeed, BJP’s 2019 assembly poll votes share has gone up in Haryana compared to 2014 (36.2 per cent versus 33.2 per cent). That the party could not get a simple majority is surely because Jats decided to try and vote out the non-Jat incumbent chief minister Manohar Lal Khattar.

A clear mandate eluded the Bharatiya Janata Party in assembly elections in Maharashtra and Haryana. The state polls in both states were held within five months of the astounding victory of the party that brought the Prime Minister Narendra Modi to power for second term. He had overcome not only his opponents outside but also from within the power structure he has been an integral part of. The party failed to improve its seat strength in both the states over its performance five years earlier in the previous election. The home minister Amit Shah was confident that his party would be able to sail through with a comfortable numbers. However the outcome must have come as great disappointment as the strength of the party was reduced in both state assemblies over its wins in the last election.
