Awesome! Thank you.
I'm trying this thing where I don't look at news from an angle. Especially other people's angle.
I just wanna look at facts n draw my own conclusions.

Good point Seven.
It is actually better for a Political Party to keep Manifestos Vague.
I scanned through BJP's manifesto and found one specific point
This one point is JUST BRILLIANT. Whoever has suggested this is simply outstanding.
cheaper agriculture inputs and credit; introducing latest technologies for
farming and high yielding seeds and linking MGNREGA to agriculture.

I was reading and totally believing everything bjp said in their manifesto until,

'unfortunate that a large section of minority, especially muslim community, continues to be stymied in poverty...'

so this is under Minority Equal Oppty section.

how are they going to prevent it from happening? by asking muslims to not have more kids than they can afford in other words go against kuran and restrict alla ki den :eye roll

why would they put this in ?

it makes me question the entire document and their credibility.

"Also, the call for a uniform civil code is no longer a Hindu-Muslim issue, but a question of gender equality. Although the manifesto does not state why equality and justice can come only through uniformity, the emphasis on protecting the rights of all women while pushing for a uniform civil code is a welcome departure from the BJP’s default position on this issue. On Jammu and Kashmir, the BJP reiterates its commitment to the abrogation of Article 370, but promises discussions with all stakeholders. Similarly, on Ayodhya the BJP takes care to mention that it would explore possibilities of facilitating the construction of the Ram temple within the framework of the Constitution. Ram Sethu and the Sethusamudram project are now issues of cultural heritage, not of religious faith. While the Ganga is described as a symbol of faith in India, the project for the purification of its waters is also justified by pointing to its importance for agriculture, fodder production and drinking water supply. The protection of the cow, another core Hindutva agenda item, is now seen in the context of the contribution of cattle to agriculture, and socio-economic and cultural life. There is no mention of secularism, but the manifesto commits the BJP to the preservation of the “rich culture and heritage” of India’s minority communities. The manifesto thus is an attempt to appeal not only to the core Hindutva supporters but also to the larger populace. But this attempt essentially represents the papering over of serious contradictions."

Are you saying that such posters do not have the right to post about congress and bjp?. If you are not interested why don't you find other posts of interest or take a walk in the park.
