I don't see any contradiction in this... I believe Altaf Hussain also said this.... Eg. Babri Masjid was a mistake to me but those who were involved in demolishing it still think it is the right thing to do... is it a question of respect or is it a difference in opinion? Eg. Ghazni...

If I am not wrong hundreds of non Muslim places of worship have been destroyed or converted in Pakistan... The only difference was in India it sparked a universal (passive) condemnation by a majority of the population.. and resulted in riots.. in Pakistan there was no resistance, not sure...

I agree Dalits don't lose the tag but Uppercaste Muslims discriminate against Dalit Muslims, Dalit Sikhs are discriminated against by upper caste Sikhs. etc. and this is what some Indian members were saying that Muslims discriminate amongst themselves on the basis of caste too.. and...

if such were the case why would discrimination occur?? Dalits very much live with their non dalit counterparts... and today because of democracy things have changed... in Dalit dominated districts Dalits are more powerful than non Dalits... and most of the uppercastes who are educated and...

are you telling me Untouchability in India is widespread??????? Dalits means low caste... For eg. almost a century back a Sikh Jat did not touch a Hindu Jat .. now they intermarry... a Brahmin wouldn't touch a Yadav, now Yadav's discriminate against Brahmins... A Hindu Rajput wouldn't touch...

and pray why are they not??? Tell me the examples you have an issue with and I will post my reference... So aren't Sikhs from lower castes?? Many sikhs are from low castes and they are given reservations on the basis of their castes... Kanshi Ram was a Sikh too and he converted to...

Threat of sword aka threat of death... Thanks for clearing my doubt about Allama's background.. I well and truly believe a significant number of South Asians muslims converted to Islam for either political, monetary purposes or under threat of sword.. so their reasons for conversion were less...

Fundamentals of Society rapidly change.. what was unacceptable a century back is today acceptable and vice versa.. Indian society was quite mature and civilized even in olden times and even during the so-called dark ages was a shining example of a civilised society.. (not to say it is...

Mustapha, Discrimination overt or covert in India is a fact of life.. as it is the case all over the world... To say the situation of Dalits is mighty comfortable is an understatement but upon comparing their situation y-o-y or d-o-d or century-on-century it has improved dramatically.. Dalits...

Actually if you happen to travel along the Grand Trunk Road you would be surprised to see hundreds of Dargahs, Mazars, Mosques most of them cared for and run by non muslims... I came across a fine example.. Hindus believe in different Gods and Godesses and all having different beliefs...

If you don't respect my views why would I yours? It is not a question of whether I agree or not it is a question of respect and your right to believe in what you believe.. Voltaire's quote would be too dramatic in this case... Partition was the thing that led to Pakistan so whether it was...

If those forums are being run by GoI then saying Pakistan Zindabad is tolerable IMO. else personal biases rule the roost... ICL players, cricket spectators, Pak singers at reality contests and their fans fly the Pakistani flag all within the borders of India.. PS: Liked the advert. of Jal...
