THE Muslim vote is the most potent force in Uttar Pradesh around which the ambitions of every ‘secular party’ revolve. As per the 2011 census, the community forms around 19% of the population, capable enough to swing the political fortunes of all parties.
But that was until 2014 after which reverse polarisation neutralised the significance of the Muslim vote bank. In the 2014 Lok Sabha elections, the hardcore Hindutva got a huge traction among UP voters. Coupled with it was some deft caste manoeuvring of the saffron brigade and it ensured a landslide win for the BJP. The support for BJP was so formidable that it left the Muslim vote almost irrelevant. It was a repeat show in both the 2017 Assembly and the 2019 Lok Sabha polls.
As a consequence, the number of Muslim representation has been dwindling since 2014. That year none of the Muslim candidate could reach the Lok Sabha from UP, in 2019, only six of them could win their seats. In the state Assembly, the number of Muslim MLAs was 63 in 2012, it slipped to 25 in 2017.
