    Karnataka elections 2023: BJP manifesto promises Uniform Civil Code, NRC

    What's the story

    The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) released its election manifesto, "Praja Dhwani," on Monday for Karnataka, which goes to polls on May 10.

    It was released by BJP President JP Nadda, CM Basavaraj Bommai, and senior leader BS Yediyurappa.

    The manifesto's highlights include the implementation of the Uniform Civil Code (UCC) and the National Register of Citizens (NRC) to deport illegal immigrants from the state.

    Context

    Why does this story matter?

    Election campaigning is in full swing in Karnataka for the upcoming Legislative Assembly polls and the Lok Sabha elections next year.

    The BJP came to power in Karnataka in July 2019 by toppling the elected Congress and Janata Dal (Secular) coalition government.

    Notably, no party has won two consecutive terms in Karnataka yet; the May 10 election is likely to be a tough contest.
