As polling approaches for the Maharashtra Assembly elections, polarization of votes has quickly begun. Some places are issuing fatwas to polarize Muslim votes; others are conducting election campaigns and handing out leaflets door-to-door. Then the polarization of votes becomes even more acute. Everyone has seen the efforts of Muslim organizations and clerics to polarize the vote, as well as the accusations of voting jihad by the Grand Alliance parties. Now let us talk about the Sangh Parivar who is trying to unite the Hindu votes.
In fact, from the beginning, the Sangh Parivar has been holding small meetings throughout Maharashtra through its affiliated organizations. Now, to boost the momentum, it has started organizing various affiliated organizations to go door-to-door to warn Hindu voters. In this sequence, RSS started running a new campaign “Sajag Raho”. Of these, the Sangh established 33 subsidiaries and the Vichar family about 100 organizations.
