		Both propositions are wrong because both are premised on the flawed assumption that the State is witnessing a secular versus communal battle.
		It is anyone's call whether such a pyhrric victory would advance the secular agenda or would merely bring comfort to the corporate "entrepreneurs" who cleverly spread their friendship equally between the BJP and the Samajwadi Party.
		The battle in Uttar Pradesh is no referendum on the Vajpayee Government; and, in any case, to begin with, the BJP did not have a mandate to rule in the State.
