Why are manifestos brought on the basis of religion in UK elections? What is the reason behind the first Hindu manifesto?


Voting for the general election will be held in Britain on July 4. The political instability that was there in Britain in the last few years has reduced after Rishi Sunak became the Prime Minister. Now that the country is going to the election, all the stakeholders and political parties are releasing manifestos. Meanwhile, a Hindu manifesto brought for the first time is being discussed a lot. Let's know what is in it.

The general elections in India are over. A new government has also been formed. Now for the next few months, the eyes of the whole world will be on Britain. Parliamentary elections are being held here. The people of India are especially interested in this because of Indian-origin Rishi Sunak, who has been running the British government for at least the last one and a half years. After the unsuccessful attempts of Boris Johnson and Liz Truss, Sunak got the command of the Conservative Party and he has largely pulled Britain out of the clutches of political instability.

At present, there was no need for them to hold elections and get a mandate. But Sunak announced mid-term elections on 4th July ahead of time. Now the manifesto for this election is also being released. Sunak has promised in his manifesto not only tax cuts but also to reduce migration. To compete with Sunak, the Labour Party is also making many important promises. But in the elections there, there is a lot of discussion about the manifesto brought in the name of a particular religion.

Hindu Manifesto: Why and how?

A British organization associated with Hindus has tried to mobilize Hindu voters through some issues. A large population of Hindus lives in Britain and seeing the elections coming near, an organization named 'Hindus for Democracy' has released its manifesto. In this, emphasis has been given on the expectations and sentiments of Hindus living in Britain. According to 'Hindus for Democracy', the population of Hindus in Britain is more than 10 lakhs and they are playing an important role in all the areas of Britain.

Manifestos have been presented in UK elections on the basis of religion. In this series, Muslim and Sikh communities have been bringing their manifestos earlier. But this is the first initiative from the Indians. If you look at the website of the organization that has brought the manifesto, it appears that it is a common platform of 15 Hindu organizations including Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha, Chinmaya Mission, Vishwa Hindu Parishad of UK.

This organization alleges that on one hand the government is giving a lot of money for the places of worship of other religions, but on the other hand Hindu institutions are being discriminated against. In such a situation, they have put forward their aspirations through seven big things or points in front of those leaders who want the votes of the people of this particular community. Through Hindu Manifesto 2024, the Hindu for Democracy Institute demands that the candidates contesting elections this time should keep these 7 things in their priorities.

7 big points of Hindu manifesto

The Hindu Manifesto mainly advocates moving forward towards seven important points. First – Anti-Hindu hate speech and incidents should be declared hate crimes and the persons or organizations involved in such incidents should be expelled from the country. Second – Demand to protect the religious places related to the faith of Hindus. Third – Providing good education.

Fourth – Demand for equal representation and opportunities for Hindus. Fifth – Talk of bringing clarity on immigration. Sixth – Better arrangements for health and social care for Hindus. Seventh – This manifesto promises to respect and protect the religious values ​​related to Hindus. Apart from these seven points, there are some other important points.

This organization named Hindu for Democracy has tried to make it clear through its manifesto that despite the presence of people from the Hindu community in large numbers, the lack of their representation in media, politics and other fields is worrisome. And this time the political parties or candidates should talk about their concerns.
