No part of the current campaign has emphasized Hindutva in any manner. . With due respect, the campaign in UP has a VERY strong underlying Hindutva theme -- just what was "revenge through ballot" -- choice of Kashi/prayers at Sankat Mochan/Vishwanath temple -- Amit Shah praying to Ram Lal...

Re: Statewide and National runup to 2014 General elections
Well BJP is certainly doing better than even ABV years -- by about 10% (based on surveys)
So BJP should be expected to best the previous best tally by at least 10%.
Simple non-statistician approach to things.
