Islam has never sought peace - if at all, a tense ceasefire borne of political compulsions.
Islamic doctrine of relentless jihad till Dar-ul-harb becomes Dar-ul-Islam, and all worship is for Allah alone, ensures that it can never be in peace with any other religion.
Individual Muslims could indeed desire peaceful relations with their non-Muslim neighbours, but that is only to the extent that they let go of Islamic ideology.
Repeating trite fictions like "Hindu-Muslim unity" will get us nowhere. Understanding Islamic doctrine is the key.
