Krantikari Manuwadi Morcha

Krantikari Manuwadi Morcha (Revolutionary Manuist Front), a Hindutva political organisation in India. It is one of the registered unrecognized political parties in India. The president of KMM is Ram Kumar Bhardwaj, grandson of freedom fighter Rudra Dutt Bhardwaj.

In the Uttar Pradesh state assembly elections in 2002 KMM nominated Dara Singh, the accused of the murder of Australian Christian missionary Graham Staines, from the Muzaffarnagar and Ghaziabad constituencies. KMM also openly defended Singh's actions. The nomination sparked protests from the Christian community, and the All India Christian Council demanded that KMM ought to be banned. The nomination was later withdrawn.

R.K. Bhardwaj did however stand as a candidate in the 2002 U.P. polls, contesting the Dadri seat. He got 531 votes (0.28%).

In the 2004 Lok Sabha elections, R.K. Bhardwaj contested the Lucknow seat (the seat of then Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee) as the only KMM candidate in the country. Interestingly, Bhardwaj had made an appeal to secular parties to support him for the election, and claim support of Muslim political groups. Bhardwaj got 597 votes (0.1%).
