Points you have raised are the points probably all hindus may have in mind and heart. But what is the point if they do not work to make themselves safe in their own country? Yes, no body talks about Kashmiri hindus ethnic cleansing and post godhra is on roll in all possible chances, so what Hindus are doing? they dont even support properly to their own party BJP. They dont have brains in political unity and they never learned from history as well.

Court. It is, during one of the hearings on this petition, the Court
had given its latest verdict. The judiciary is of the view that Haj
subsidy violates "the secular character of our Constitution" according
to which there shall be no discrimination on the basis of religion
while no communities other than Muslims receive such a subsidy for
their pilgrimage.

I think u are pakka BxPian.U delibrately ferget waht subsidy govt gives for Mansarovar & Amarnath.
Because of people like u in history many people got outcasted & bacame either Muslim,Christian or Buddha.
It will be interesting to see just one Hindutva leader saying no to medicines/vaccines/Medical equipment just because those were invented or manufatured by non hindus.
Not using Cellphones/Planes/TV or for that matter Language English or Hindi as its not from Hindus.
If this is not possible then tell me one example where any of the these laeder /or his daughter marrying in lesser caste (As they think them Shudras)
These double standards are just for the heck of politics & nothing else
