Why is Bhole Baba a favourite among politicians? From the government to the opposition, everyone is avoiding taking his/her name

New Delhi: More than 120 people have died in the Hathras stampede. Many people are still fighting for their lives. The police have also registered an FIR in this case. But the thing to note is that this FIR does not mention the name of the self-proclaimed Baba, whose sermons were heard by lakhs of people. Now the question also arises whether the sermons of this self-proclaimed Baba, who calls himself God, are also liked by the leaders? Local people and senior journalists say that Bhole Baba has a good hold on 30 districts, 25 Lok Sabha and more than 130 assembly seats in western UP. Most of Bhole Baba’s devotees are from Dalit and OBC community. Perhaps this is the reason why no party is holding Bhole Baba responsible for the Hathras stampede.Leaders are not taking Baba’s name openly
3 days have passed since the Hathras incident. So far 123 people have died, including 113 women, 7 children and 3 men. There are still 31 people who are struggling between life and death. The police is in action mode. From CM Yogi to all the big leaders have visited Hathras. Today Rahul Gandhi has also reached Hathras. Despite all this, the absconding Bhole Baba has not been caught yet. Nor has any statement come out regarding Baba’s arrest.

The opposition has also maintained silence
The government is not saying anything against Bhole Baba regarding the Hathras incident, and the opposition is also maintaining silence. The opposition, which was speaking openly on issues like paper leak, constitutional amendment and reservation during the Lok Sabha elections, is avoiding taking the name of Bhole Baba in the Hathras incident. The same is the situation on social media. Senior journalists and local people also say that this is happening due to the political influence of Narayan Sakar Vishwa Hari and his/her strong hold among the Dalits of Western UP.

There are queues of leaders at Baba’s place during elections
According to media reports, local journalists say that Bhole Baba’s popularity has increased a lot in the last few decades. No one wants to speak against Baba. From bureaucrats, businessmen to politicians, everyone used to go to meet Baba. Apart from this, Bhole Baba himself comes from the Dalit community, so speaking against him/her can cause a dent in the Dalit vote bank in Western UP. Dalit votes dominate in many areas of Western UP. During elections, long queues of leaders of all parties are seen in Bhole Baba’s court. The parties which have Baba’s support, as a symbol, also hoist Baba’s flag along with the party flag.
