9. BJP must have a clear strategy to expose the blatant Muslim vote-bank
politics of the opposition. A smart strategy for the saffron party would
be to convert this election into a development v/s return to jungle
raj election at the macro level while creating a Hindu v/s Muslim
fight at the micro level by subtly campaigning for reverse polarization
as nearly 96% Muslims are likely to vote for the Nitish Kumar led
alliance. If 1.2 Cr Muslim votes can polarize on one side, then BJP has
the opportunity to tap 5 Cr plus Hindu votes on the other side of the
secular spectrum. For instance, one important aspect of this strategy
should come from the larger Sangh Parivaar by interacting with the
villagers about BJP’s commitment for total beef-ban which has
important Hindu connotations in the heartland
