Has Modi Introduced "Truer Secularism" and Appealed to "Aspiring India" or is He Spreading Fear?

Modi has introduced "a newer, truer secularism" and is appealing to "a modern India, an aspiring India": Surjit Bhalla to Karan Thapar for The Wire.
...........................................
In an extremely arguementative if not outrightly quarrelsome interview, the well-known and highly regarded economist, columnist and author, Surjit Bhalla, has said that he personally believes Narendra Modi has introduced “a newer, truer secularism”. Dr. Bhalla at first refused to answer follow-up questions but then agreed to do so. However be disregarded the fact BJP MPs and MLAs call Muslims Babar ki aulad and tell them to go to Pakistan or that the Chief Minister of UP taunts them with abba jaan or that Muslims are wrongly accused of love jihad, land jihad and cattle lynching, or when dharma sansads threaten genocide the government keeps quiet and has nothing to say. He would not answer the question how can this be true secularism.
In the interview to mark his new book ‘How We Vote: The Factors that Influence Voters’, Dr. Bhalla strongly defended his claim that “Modi’s consistent appeal is to a modern India, an aspiring India”. He refused to accept that Narendra Modi’s speeches of the last three weeks, which demonize and attack the Muslim community and create the fear that Muslims are going to grab reservations meant for OBCs, SCs and STs, contradict his claim that Modi is appealing to a modern India and an aspiring India.
The interview also discusses Mr. Bhalla’s claim, made in his book, that “economics determines elections”. It is pointed out to him that Mr. Modi, who won three consecutive victories in Gujarat and could be poised to win three more in Delhi, belies that analysis because for the last three weeks he has not campaigned on his government’s ten year economic record but, instead, by attacking the Muslim community and thus seeking to polarize Hindus and Muslims in the belief this will unite Hindus behind him and deliver the majority he wants. Dr. Bhalla vigorously denies that Mr. Modi’s campaign has belied his analysis.
On all three issues mentioned above, the interview was quarrelsome and aggressive. I will, therefore, not tell you more about the interview but leave you to see it for yourself. To be honest, its one huge and, often, unrelieved ding-dong. A fairly brutal punch up. You must decide for yourself what you make of the interview. I will not tell you more.

    I can summarize what Bhalla wanted to say: 1. Price rise & unemployment are always among the concerns of Indian populace since eternity. 2. Actual data (or feeling) on price rise & unemployment determines the "degree of importance" attached to them. 3. Modi has worked on both (inflation is lesser than UPA era while unemployment is not, but still less than 2019) 4. Modi does mention development issues during campaign speech, along with polarization remarks. Those parts get less mention. 5. Modi doesn't need to advertise development much as those are supposed to be seen/felt and not heard. 6. Polarization enthusiasizes the voters to go to polling station & reminds core voters about commitment (for BJP it's ultra-RW Hindu).

    @@dipjyotimitra186 I beg to differ from your point of view. Two voting phases later, the ruling party seems to hardly mention the economy ,development,unemployment or inflation.Instead, there’s been a hard pivot to communal content. From inflammatory speeches at rallies, to animated videos warning that the Congress, if elected, would distribute Hindu wealth and property to Muslims. Why isn’t the ruling party talking about its economic wins but instead steering a large part of its narrative and communication around religion, the Ram temple and a familiar yet toxic anti-Muslim narrative? Apparently there is nothing to talk about.

    I can summarize what Bhalla wanted to say: 1. Price rise & unemployment are always among the concerns of Indian populace since eternity. 2. Actual data (or feeling) on price rise & unemployment determines the "degree of importance" attached to them. 3. Modi has worked on both (inflation is lesser than UPA era while unemployment is not, but still less than 2019) 4. Modi does mention development issues during campaign speech, along with polarization remarks. Those parts get less mention in social media or TV. 5. Modi doesn't need to advertise development much as those are supposed to be seen/felt and not heard. 6. Polarization enthusiasizes the voters to go to polling station & reminds core voters about commitment (for BJP it's ultra-RW Hindu). 7. I didn't understand Bhalla's secularism point.

    Modi is 'Truly ' secular in a very Western ideological sense. Facism is a secular and ideological interpretation of 'Raison D'etat'. The terrible beauty and tragedy of these Western approaches to power and politics is their universality of application to any cultural/religious circumstances. In any such circumstance reduction of the public interest/discourse to singular culture/religious interests or singular focus upon practical interests such 'The Economy' can be combined to serve the purpose of excluding participants from public debate upon the legitimate exercise of power based upon their religious or ethnic origins. This man's purely economic definition of secularism is simply mistaken.

    And to imagine and to assert - as Bhalla appears to be doing - that the minority community targeted by Modi will be more concerned with what the Government does rather than what it says is one of those distorted truisms. What Bhalla appears to think is that even if the Prime Minister of the country abuses the minority community they will still vote for him because they are happy with their economic progress.
