Brahmin vs. BJP: Who is Fueling the Narrative of Discontent from UP to MP?

• A 'Brahmin vs. BJP' narrative is emerging across Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh, despite Brahmins historically being a strong support base for the BJP.
• Incidents like the 'Ghooskhor Pandit' film, the Alankar Agnihotri case, and discontent over UGC rules are cited as reasons for Brahmin resentment.
• Closed-door meetings of Brahmin MLAs in UP and Brahmin organizations are discussing perceived targeting of the community and lack of power-sharing.
• In Madhya Pradesh, discontent stems from the BJP's social engineering (OBC CM) and perceived neglect of Brahmin-dominated regions like Vindhya in cabinet positions.
• The opposition, particularly SP and Congress, is actively trying to capitalize on this perceived Brahmin discontent, despite BJP's reliance on the 'TINA factor'.
