(1) Rise in Islam was not necessariliy because of repression by Hindus. It was largely carried out at the point of sword by foreign aggressors (2) We cannot compare riots in Pakistan and Bangladesh because minorities in those coutries have been sytematically converted or eliminated. Sensus figures in both countries reflect these facts. (3) If one has to compare Pakistan, ook at the riots between Shias ad Sunnis. Look at the condition of otrher minorities like Ahmediayas and not Hindus. Let me state emphatically that Hindua have neven never been aggressors. Only now, they are become retaliators and unfortunately habitual aggressors finding it difficult to digest.
