Lets define "India" from an historic perspective...

My correction. I should have said "SINDH" that includes parts of Afganistan and Pakistan.

Islam was introduced to the south-east in 629AD.

During the period of early Rajput supremacy in north India, during the seventh, the first Muslim invasions were carried out simultaneously with the expansion towards Central Asia. In 664, forces led by Mohalib began launching raids from Persia, striking Multan in the southern Punjab in what is today Pakistan.

In 711, an expedition led by Muhammad bin Qasim defeated Raja Dahir at what is now Hyderabad in Sindh and established Umayyad rule by 712. Qasim subdued the whole of what is modern Pakistan, from Karachi to Kashmir, reaching the borders of Kashmir within three years. After his recall, however, the region devolved into the semi-independent Arab ruled states of Mansura and Multan.

Imran sez.. "Islam was introduced to the south-east in 629AD."

I am absolutely with you on "Islam was introduced to the south-east", not sure about time lines.

The key question here is HOW it was introduced ?

and WHAT WERE THE AFFECTS of this "Introduction" ?

It was not introduced. It was dumped INTO our throat!! people were forced to convert, if not were killed. Every village had a skull mountain in the entrance made by the barbaric acts of the inavaders.
