13. SOUNDBITE (English) Ali Khan Mahmudabad, political scientist and historian at Ashoka University:
“Whether it’s social, cultural, political, legal, Muslims are sort of, in a sense, facing this shift, it is not, I think, complete yet, but this gradual shift from what was already marginalisation to exclusion. And I think therefore, it is worrying from the point of view of the state, regardless of who comes into power. I don’t think any democracy that disenfranchises, politically or socially, a particular community, remains stable.”

“This election, there’s not even an attempt at, doublespeak or trying to sort of, give a nuanced, approach to the Muslim voter. I mean, the Muslim voter is very much being invoked now as a threat to India, and to consolidate the BJP’s vote."
