Kashi Vishwanath-Gyanvapi: Despite hands-off pledge, court battles will help Sangh Parivar in 2024

The Allahabad high court's verdict on the Kashi Vishwanath-Gyanvapi land title suit has potential political ramifications leading up to the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Legal battles in the Gyanvapi mosque and Krishna Janmabhoomi cases of Varanasi and Mathura are expected to influence political developments. Ayodhya, Kashi, and Mathura were contentious issues during the 1980s, forming the foundation of the saffron brigade's campaign. The RSS's interest in these legal disputes reflects its comprehension of their impact on politics and potential aid to BJP electoral fortunes.
