Re: Muslims in India…harassed and Killed
Noone is 100% safe in India. Secondly goons are part of this Cow protection group so that makes every Muslim cattle dweller a target.
Majority of illegal butcheries are owned by Muslims across India. BJP made cow protection a part of election manifesto, it stuck chord with the masses, many of the butcheries were closed down. This also gave power to goons who want to harass Muslims or extort them as Muslims have now to do this without protection of police and hence the violence.
You can come and visit if you are trying to learn of running brand campaign like Incredible India, it is a huge success, infact every Indian state runs its advertisement to get more tourist footfalls, and I am sure we are more successful than any neighbouring country.
BJP didn’t field any muslim candidate in recent UP election, UP having 18%-20% muslim population and won election with more than 2/3 majority. During past rule of Yadav-Muslims, Non-Yadav Hindus felt alienated and discriminated by the governance which even discriminated in giving aid to bereaved family.
I am not from UP but was working there during demonitization exercise of RBI
BJP wanted every voter who were against this blatant discrimination to vote for them and they succeeded in it.
They do not have consolidated leadership and whatever they have it plays religious rhetoric just like Hindu leaders. People like Azam Khan or Owaisi Brothers of Deccan don’t help either
Vande Matram controversy and then Senior Owaisi saying that he won’t say Bharat Mata ki Jai even if anyone puts knife on his neck.
Such things never helps Muslims who are then seen as alien people with alien culture speaking native language.
