That is not true. In India, state do interferes with religion and people generally interfere with religion, both interfere forcefully regardless of laws. Hindu-Muslim riots, Hindu-Christian riots, Hindu-Sikh riots, ‘upper cast’-‘lower cast’ Hindu riots, and bias attitude of state police in those riots, all speaks volume about how much religious freedom is there in India. Bias attitude of State towards recruitment of non-Hindus is also other facts that expose Indian freedom of religion.

From non-interfering state in religious matter is not a state that says it does not interfere, but state that takes crime against other humans equally, just like any other crime, even when it is done in the name of religion.

I bet you could not criticise Hindu beliefs demanding answers in India without someone becoming physical and state preferring to look other way, and in same way I believe you would not be able to criticise Muslim beliefs in India demanding answers without someone becoming physical.

Quaid-e-Azam was once in Congress, but after seeing them and their attitudes, he thought that if Muslims would be living in India they would suffer in the hands of Hindu majority in various ways, even when those suffering would not be officially condoned. He also feared that Hindu majority government would impose Hindu bias laws in the name of Nationalism, as that is what congress was doing in Congress controlled provinces before independence, and later in India after independence. Unfortunately, Quaid-e-Azam did not realise that many Muslims had same evil extremist faces rather worse than what Hindus had, and to show that ugly faces Muslim needed a chance of domination that they got in Pakistan, so now they are doing the same in Pakistan. Faces of these Muslim extremist were so evil and ugly that even Muslims in Pakistan are not free from their fitna.

See your are derailing the topic here. i never said india is a perfect example of secular democracy. i just made a point that pakistan would be just like india. It makes perfact sense , india and pakistan are culturally similar and hence they would have taken same trajectory if they had same system. there is nothing genetic different in hindu or muslim dna.
Or another example could be bangladesh, it is also a secular country with muslim majority, may be pakistan could have been like that since bangladesh was a part of pakistan not too long ago.

but i will say this with no doubt in my mind, in india you have all the religious freedom of the world. religious Flexibility and all assimilative culture has made this country what it is today. You can find every religion under the sun here and many more being born in regular intervals.
Plus there are no questions to be answered in hindu beliefs. and even if you ask no body cares. people write books criticizing different gods. nobody takes religion that seriously.
And regarding jinnah , it is a different topic. what he thought , how much he was right and what he got is totally different issue.
