Amit Shah’s Lingayat mutt hopping a disaster or success?

BENGALURU: The BJP believes that BJP nationwide president Amit Shah’s two-day talk over with to shore up Lingayat neighborhood votes went off smartly, barring one embarrassment. The seer of the outstanding Muruga mutt in Chitradurga had beseeched Shah to press for minority religion status for the Lingayats. The BJP has hostile the move.
The BJP and Shah had been stuck off-guard with the memorandum which the mutt seer Murugarajendra Swami passed to them. According to party resources, aside from for that “incident” and a few “gaffes”, Shah’s mutt hopping is being thought to be a luck since he achieved his schedule of being noticed “entering and exiting” Lingayat mutts on the height of the talk.

The influential Madara Chennaiya swami, whom Shah met during his shuttle instructed TOI: “People will construct their perceptions by seeing who these large leaders meet. We do not wish to give a message, they are going to perceive.”

Shah’s visits were not too detailed aside from for his interaction with the seers of small mutts such as the Bekinakal mutt in Shivamogga, the bastion of party state president B S Yeddyurappa. At the Siddaganga mutt, one of the vital more influential Lingayat mutts, Shah stored it simple and didn't raise the issue of the Veerashaiva-Lingayat controversy.

The BJP leadership thought to be it an “apolitical” assembly. At Sirigere, Shah strategically timed his talk over with to have lunch with the politically influential Taralabalu mutt seer, Shivamurthy Shivacharya Mahaswamiji. The seer, who is said to be veering in opposition to the BJP, was once reportedly happy in regards to the talk over with.


While Shah was once scheduled to fulfill the 20-odd small and large mutt seers affiliated to the Muruga mutt, he left in a hurry after the memorandum was once submitted. Party resources said Shah was once taken to the Muruga mutt, regardless of understanding the anti-BJP stance of the seer, as it will now not be smartly gained in public if he didn't talk over with the mutt even after landing in Chitradurga and visiting different mutts.


Murugarajendra swami, when asked whether he'll ask the Lingayat neighborhood to vote for one unmarried party, instructed TOI: “A collective resolution will probably be taken by us seers in this matter.”


BJP MP Pralhad Joshi who was once with Shah during his visits, said, “The Amit Shah talk over with has created a huge have an effect on. All the mutts which he visited have their own influence within the society with their social work. Ninety 9 per cent of the mutts have agreed with the fact that if the mutts and the Hindu neighborhood has to broaden then BJP should come to power.”
