The author, no doubt a fan of the so-called secular parties who garner vote banks of minority religions and various castes by providing quotas, preferences, special justice systems and previlages - all in the name of secularism.
The BJP is not perfect for it also preaches differential treatments based on caste systems, but at least when it comes to religions, it is the only national party (that I can think of at least) which says irrespective of which religion one belongs to, one should get the same rights and have the same duties.
