But why did the BJP chose on October 17 for the Oath of the Haryana government? Let’s take a closer look.
What is on October 17?
This year, Valmiki Jayanti is celebrated on October 17. Maharishi Valmiki, sage and poet, was the author of the Hindu epic Ramayanawhose birthday of birth is marked each year by certain Dalits communities.
He is also observed as “Diwas Partage” by the religious community of Valmiki.
The Haryana government said a public holiday on October 17 for Valmiki Jayanti.
In January, the BJP appointed Ayodhya International Airport after Maharishi Valmiki says that it “disseminates a message of truth, morality and spirituality in society”.
Speaking about the importance of Maharishi Valmiki in BJP politics, Manohar Lal Khattar, when he was CM from Haryana, “said:”Antyodaya And social harmony is the motto of our government. The vision of Maharishi Valmiki of Ram Rajya is confirmed by the governments led by the BJP while we are working towards development. The lessons of Maharishi Valmiki play an important role in making the country a world power. Valmiki Ji had written texts such as Ramayana And Yogavashisthawhich are jewels in the field of literature, society and religion. »»
Return from the BJP to Haryana
The unexpected victory of the BJP in Haryana is historic. This is the first time that a party has come to power for a third consecutive term in the state. Defying the exit polls, the Safran party won 48 of the 90 seats of the assembly during the recent elections.
The three independent deputies also extended their support for the BJP.
This occurs only a few months after the saffron party won only five of the 10 Lok Sabha seats in Haryana, indicating a turnaround in the polls of the Assembly.
The surprise victory is a boost to the morale of the Saffron Party before the November surveys in Maharashtra and Jharkhand.
The victory of the BJP at Haryana is credited with its ability to consolidate the votes of the dalits and other backward classes (OBC) in its favor, while the Congress strongly depended on the Jats, which represent approximately 27% of the electorate.
The planned caste (SCS) represent almost 20% of the population of Haryana, while OBC represent almost 30% of people. Saini, who was declared against the CM of the BJP before the assembly elections, also belongs to the OBC community.
The BJP won eight of the 17 preserved SC seats in the polls of the Haryana Assembly.
About Indian ExpressHaryana’s government’s well-being initiatives such as the supply of gas cylinders for Rs 500 and Lado Lakshmi Yojana helped him win voters from the Dalit and OBC categories. “The BJP is a part that has always given respect due to the oppressed, the poor, the backgrounds and the dalits. Unlike other political parties that have shown these categories in hand, the BJP has taken several initiatives for them since it came to power in 2014, “said a senior BJP in the newspaper.
The internal surveys of the Safran party reveal that its decision to unite the OBCs and the dalits against the Jat community helped him in Haryana. “We want to use the same strategy in the Maharashtra where the dominant community of Maratha seems to support the opposition alliance,” said a bjp chief The telegraph.
Dalit awareness
The announcement by the BJP of the date of the Haryana CM swear ceremony coincided with the day of the chief of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the chief of Mohan Bhagwat, the address Vijayadashami on Saturday when he called for a new awareness of dalits.
He allegedly alleged an effort as “the deep state” to divide the country on caste lines. “Why should Valmiki Jayanti be celebrated only in the Colonies of Valmiki?” Valmiki wrote the Ramayana For all Hindu society, and these festivals should therefore be celebrated together by all Hindu society. We (the RSS) will go into the company with this message, “said Bhagwat, according to The telegraph.
The BJP believes that the opposition accusations that the party would end the reservations if it returned to power with 400 seats to get rid of its chances in the polls of Lok Sabha, which takes off its majority in the lower chamber.
According to The telegraphThe BJP and the RSS try to court the dalits to put them under the wider Hindutva umbrella to counter the opposition’s request for a national caste census.
Speaking on the occasion of Valmiki Jayanti, Amit Shah previously stressed that all regimes of the Modi government aim to improve the socio-economic conditions of the dalits and the poor.
The saffron party is on the path of the renewal of Dalit voters. The Haryana CM is sworn in on Valmiki Jayanti seems to be such a decision.
