The present scenario of the Muslim MPs in the 18th Lok Sabha stands with as many as 24 elected members. This short number is much lower than the highest tally of 49 in 1980.
The total seats stayed at as many as 45 seats in 1984. So far After a gap of around 40 years, the number continues to shrink. The exact figure in the very initial year of 1952 remained merely at 25 Muslim MPs.
It is thus quite evident that the Muslim representation has never been higher. It dangled between those already given figures year after year.
However, some candidates have credit for ably winning the latest parliamentary polls by even a huge margin of above ten lakh votes. Their number goes up to one particular seat.
Another noteworthy aspect is worth putting into our straight view. Asaduddin Owaisi maintains his political tempo without break.
This year even the vocal Muslim party could not maintain its total strength of even two. It has been reduced to only one single seat. Who can deny it?
There must be some significant reasons behind this big unbearable factor. Lack of a solid support base may be a prominent cause of securing fewer votes.
So long as this persisting anomaly is not tackled the defeat can not be properly tackled. This is as much correct as other reasons remain active in keeping the tally relatively low.
It is a fact that the close-knit groups of best well-wishers, party colleagues, supporters or otherwise at some point begin to reject one another.
This is a reciprocal process, developed from encouragement. Can we not leave showing flip-flops attitude in the company of our political peers?
Do we try a mutual convergence of taste to establish unity on shared political life experiences and cultural links with all the possible means?
