Ahmad Nawaz, Hindus, Muslims and Christians in India - We all have common ancestors. People of all religions in India are local. Only a handful of muslim familities trace their ancestry to Persia or Afghanistan. But after 600 years of muslim dynasties in different part of undivided India, unfortunately, an "imperial" attitude did come about amongst muslims. Hindus feel muslims "looked down" upon them. Do not confuse some strong words used by some people with the reality in India. Muslims and Christians live better lives than even in Pakistan and B'desh. For instance, if you are a Shiah,Ahmadiya or Ismaili in Pakistan, life is not as free for you as in India. Muslims are very much part of India. It won't change. It is a guarantee. But as JGN has said, too much muslim "exclusiveness" and looking to the "Ummah" all the time, at the expense of the welfare of India, then some criticisms will follow, I am afraid.
