There’s always a subtext to the BJP campaign.  Teesta gives the example of last July when Amit Shah referred to the alleged migration of 100 families of a community from the Western UP town of Kairana and said that it is a matter of deep concern. Adding to that, she talks about Amit Shah’s speeches where there is always a subtext of communalism.
