Exactly!! Rajeev Srinivasan is such a marvel.
That is exactly what concious Hindus must openly and vocally resort to doing not only in Kerala, and not only during Elections, but all over India and throughout the horizon.
Stop being a "sold" supporter of a said Party. Stop being jubilant "Friends of X". Because by doing that, you have already seen that the said party and leaders take your causes for granted. Dont do that. Make them earn your vote, by being an issue based supporter. Do my work, take my vote.
Learn from the success of Jammu Hindus. Amarnath Movement leadership flatly rejected offers of party platform for their movement. They were open to members of any party that would come to their cause. During elections, they declared that they would elect candidates from any non-anti-national parties who announce support for their cause. This made the local Congress, even NC, to rush to their support. And they did do swing voting by letting each of the 3 parties have almost equal seats from Jammu! Now Cong, NC, BJP: all have to compete for their support.
Do this swing voting, stop being a Sold Out, be open to all parties whichever takes up your cause, and then see how Laloos and Mulayams, Mayawatis and Mamatas will rush to become Soft Hindutva. Gone are the days when we hoped to have a solid Hindu party. Shed that dream for now.
