Love Jihad Word Manufactured By BJP To Divide Nation I No Evidence: But New Law on 'Love Jihad'?

The last time the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) took this up as a political plank wholeheartedly, it resulted in the killing of 62 people, and displacement of more than 50,000 Muslims in the days following the 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots in Uttar Pradesh. In the months preceding the riots that left all of western UP polarised along religious lines, the BJP unit of the state experimented with the ‘love jihad’ campaign and successfully shattered the region’s social harmony. Jats and Muslims, who had come together as one agricultural community under the leadership of former Prime Minister Charan Singh since the 1970s, became sworn enemies. The resultant social fragmentation is still bearing fruit for the saffron party. That was a time when Amit Shah, a little-known face outside Gujarat, was appointed as the UP election in charge by his party. Energised by his stewardship, BJP workers went from village to village in western UP to campaign against what they called ‘love jihad’ – an idea that the Sangh parivar had already been employing to polarise Hindus and Muslims in coastal Karnataka, a region which has historically been Hindutva’s laboratory. BJP workers and others affiliated with the Sangh parivar triggered distrust among Jats against Muslims. They visited villages and held meetings with elders in the Jat community, with the intention to exploit orthodoxy among older people and their traditional opposition to romantic liaisons of any type. Armed with a newly-built well-oiled rumour machinery on social media, these workers claimed that certain madrassas were funded by terrorist organisations and Islamic countries to convert Hindu women. To achieve this goal, they continued, these madrassas identified “good-looking Muslim young men” and trained them to stalk Hindu women. According to Hindutva activists, the madrassas taught young Muslim men to dress in “a modern way”, and then funded them to open mobile phone shops and buy motorbikes, which they could use to woo Hindu women.
