Delhi, J’khand … now Bihar: BJP plays ‘infiltrators’ card to corner oppn – will it work?

Bihar is witnessing a fierce political battle over “illegal migration,” with Prime Minister Modi accusing the Mahagathbandhan of shielding foreign infiltrators. This offensive, a recurring BJP poll strategy, targets the opposition ahead of elections, particularly in the Muslim-majority Seemanchal region. While BJP officially cites development, the infiltration narrative aims to reshape electoral dynamics, echoing past campaigns in Delhi and Jharkhand.
