You have always done a wonderful job for the country starting from the day you moved to India with your journalism. It takes courage to speak out in our democratic country about atrocities against numerical majority Hindus, because you are labeled communal. Your report is nothing but truth, but I wonder how many Hindus are listening this. Do you think Hindus care about this or some even understand this? I may sound pessimistic, but would say no. Because if they do, we would not be in this position. Sounds like the time to start a revolution to save mother India.

The spirit of India is is cultural/religious diversity. Even Hindus in the north/south/east/west are all different. Then why we should care about religion?
Manmohan was made PM not because he is sikh but he was qualified. Or say there is no other person in this country better than him for that post. Father of Economic Reforms and former RBI governor.He happened to be a sikh. Is it a drawback?
Abdul Kalam has served the nation with his entire life. He is a dedicated indian. Not even married. Father of our space programs. A muslim. But what problem.
Sonia I think is better person than any other polititian in India, whatever you say. She even rejected the PM post. I dont think any other Congress or BJP leader will deny if they are given the PM chair even for a day!
So why this outburst? Our country has seen many PM and president right? 99% of them hindus..... then what problem now being a non-hindu holding the post for a short time? BJP supporters left with no issues is using this as last argument.... thats all. Even the party (BJP) dont consider this as an issue now.

No doubt about that. most Indians agree on this, because with different castes, cultures, religions, and divergent idealisms amongst Indians we are the true example of unity in diversity to the world. But the pseudo-secular political parties are exploiting this for the quenching of their power hunger. those pseudo-seculars are creating the impression of uttering the word HINDU as a communalist. That is what the author pointed out.
