PM's Minority Push: Is BJP Set To Forge A New Relationship With Kerala's Bishops?

Prime Minister Narendra Modi meets representatives of eight Christian groups in Kerala's Kochi this evening in what is being seen as the BJP's big push to woo the community ahead of next year's general elections.  This is the Prime Minister's second interaction with the community leaders in less than three weeks - the last occasion was on Easter, when he visited Delhi's Sacred Heart Cathedral, interacted with the community and planted a tree. In the party's last national executive, PM Modi had made a strong case for reaching out to the marginalized sections and the minorities.
