India News : Narendra Modi rejected a skull cap at his Sadbhavana meet in 2011 and recently called himself a Hindu nationalist to keep his Hindutva mascot image as well as the RSS mentors on his side. But now, as the BJP's campaign chief for 2014 elections, is he seriously eyeing Muslim votes?

At the BJP executive committee meeting in Delhi last weekend, Mr Modi wondered if 20-25 per cent Muslims vote for him in Gujarat, why can't they do that in the rest of the country?

On the face of it, Mr Modi seems to be working on a strategy to mend fences with the minority voters. But sources in the party say Mr Modi was only focussing on backward Muslims who vote more on caste than community lines, especially in states like Bihar, where the BJP ended its alliance with Nitish Kumar, popular among backward Muslims in the state.
