Site Purpose & Editorial Standards

Summary: This site provides evidence-based analysis of organizational and strategic patterns publicly attributed to the BJP and RSS, strictly grounded in verifiable sources. It does not advocate for or against any party; it facilitates democratic literacy. All factual sentences carry a citation token [src:source-id].

Scope:

• Organizational structures, strategic pillars, and documented tactics.
• Electoral performance metrics from Election Commission datasets [src:source-eci-2019].
• Legal constraints and compliance environment [src:source-law-ec-regulations-2022].

Editorial Standards:

1. Separation of fact and analysis. Analysis sentences begin with "Analysis:".
2. Minimum source diversity for strategy/tactic pages: ≥5 sources with ≥2 types.
3. Corrections protocol: any adjustment logged in Change Log.
4. Neutral language; no unverified allegations.

Inclusion Criteria: A claim is included only if:

• Present in at least one reliability tier A or B source; OR
• Present in a tier C investigative piece AND corroborated by at least one additional independent source.

Exclusions:

• Personal data, leaks, speculative operational details.
• Implementation instructions for manipulative behavior.

Citations System: Inline markers [src:source-id] are transformed into labeled spans with tier metadata.

Independent Verification Path:

1. Retrieve cited Election Commission data PDF/CSV and confirm the referenced seat/vote share.
2. Cross-check manifesto statements with official party publications.
3. Compare narrative characterization against at least two media outlets.

Limits of This Analysis: Data is limited to public domain materials; no access to internal decision-making.

Alternative Interpretations: Scholarly debate exists about relative weight of centralized vs decentralized strategic control (see narrative-framing and cadre-development pages).
