Really dude, what's up?
The "movements" that you are talking about are nothing but slide shows. The Maoists are more like dacoits; you have no clue how unpopular they are. The NE is more pissed off with Bangladeshis than the GoI. The South and the North (where most of the country) lives is...
This from the previous writeup:
1) Fringe groups (refering to the extremists)
2) Chhattisgarh has an expansionist evangelist movement in full swing
3) Christian converts often claim to be Hindus for fear that they'll lose their rights to the government jobs and university spots that...
You are shying away. Why agree to something if you can't defend?
I know that... but does that not contradict your "all low caste Hindus are poor and oppressed" rhetoric?
You really should read more about the caste-system. Its not as simple as you think.
It is a prejudice that you...
You agree with him, don't you? So why shy away from "defending?"
Again, so there is no "Muslim high class?" Are there no "low-caste Hindus" who are very rich?
Again, you are entertaining a prejudice...
In other words, your figures ought to be discarded.
So stop taking his opinion as holy scriptures.

Honestly AM, I do not think you are at any higher moral ground; your posts are as jingoistic as ours.
As far as compromises go, the Article 370 is the biggest compromise we could have ever offered. There was never any question that the region deserves Article 370 (it does); however, I doubt...
Subtle racism: I do not hate you but I'd like it if you were at an arm's length. Same is the case with Hindus and Muslims in India.
The people who refused the houses on religious grounds did not "hate" Muslims but would like it if they are kept at an arm's length. What they do not realise is...
What she has said is that this phenomenon exists, and that this phenomenon is not concsious. I hope you get the difference; that is why I mentioned "subtle racism."
There is no concsious effort herein.
PS: My society contains many Muslim families.
It is not like all Muslims live in ghettos or in poor societies/localities.
Most slums in my city are mixed; same goes for appartments and localities.
Some areas are pre-dominantly Hindu and some are pre-dominantly Muslim; both are equally good/bad.
But what Shabana Azmi has said is...
