VHP sees Modi government implementing Hindutva

VHP leader see Modi (See VHP confident on Ram Temple) implementing Hindutva agenda. Modi is compared to the Hindu raja Prithviraj Chauhan that ruled Delhi in the 12th century and asked to return to the Hindutva. Prithviraj was defeated by Shahad-ud-din Ghauri and that led to Muslim rule in Indian subcontinent.

The three main demand of VHP are
  1. Building of Ram mandir (where once Babri mosque stood)
  2. Common civil code
  3. Ban on cow slaughter.
I do not see these things happening but there will be some movement in the direction of Hindutva. Ram mandir and common civil code are particularly difficult to achieve. However, indirect restrictions on cow slaughter maybe imposed.
