The Army of Vishnu is a minor political party in Navi Bharat, ruling in coalition with the Conservative Party of Navi Bharat. They hold 5 of the 500 seats in the Senate of the People. They are headed by deputy opposition leader Hariprasad Modi, a Marathi native.

Socially, the Army of Vishnu views Traditional Hindus as the rightful leaders of Navi Bharat, and seeks to decrease the power of Muslim and especially Buddhist rule in Navi Bharat. They were formed to oppose the creation of the Southland Tibetan Autonomous Region, and have been known to commit acts of violence in this area. The party also stands against Vedanta Hindus, as they view Hinduism as a selective and heirarchical religion. They support defense, law, and order, and seek to remove social equality from the nation's budget.

Economically, the Army of Vishnu lies to the center-left, opposing large business conglomerates, and returning to a pastoral land, where farms are owned primarily by the Hindu peasant class. Despite this economic dichotomy with the Conservatives, they frequently rule in coalition.
