Namaste all,

BJP  is  a better alternative to Congress from the economic perspective.
They do very little for the actual upliftment of HIndu causes such as
Removing temples from govt control or enforcing RTE for
minority educational institutions. . BJP is not the solution here. There
should arise  another party which is actually pro-hindu and people should
vote for it enmass.

I really hope this party takes off  :https://www.ekam4sanatan.org/

Regards,
Murali
