There is a huge number of law-abiding moderate muslims in this country who are often whitewashed with the same brush as terrorists. For India to truly prosper, this section need to be understood and not alienated with radical, prejudiced, blindly anti-Islamic sentiment. For vast sections of these muslims, faith in Allah is the only solace to get away from their mostly pathetic existence in ghettos across the country. Please don't dismiss them as fringe elements. This is just an appeal from a community which wants to get to the mainstream with their heads high, sharing the country's problems with their Hindu brethren and trying to collectively solve them.
