The Kshatriya community continued its protests against the BJP candidate from Rajkot, Parshottam Rupala, for his controversial remarks against its members.

On Friday, protests were held at around a dozen places in Saurashtra and north Gujarat, with members of different Kshatriya castes demanding that his candidature be withdrawn.

You're confusing interdependence with loyalty. The end game of the sangh is to consolidate power and money in the hands of a tiny minority - the upper caste Hindus. The big corporates just help them in that endeavor. The corporates do that because extreme right wing governments deflect attention of the populace towards communal enmity and away from their corruption, exploitation and wealth consolidation. This isn't a pattern unique to India - you can see it playing out all over the world.
