Rather than criticizing NY Times, you should rather look inwards and try to understand why there is a visible anxiety about India on the global media. It is no denying that religious extremism(mostly Hindu ultranationalism) is rising very fast in India and destroying the inter-communal harmony. Many Hindu extremists leaders who are also holding big public offices are saying outrageous things against Indian muslim minority as well as neighboring muslim countries even the ones like Maldives or Bangladesh. Madness over 'Cow protection' has reached at alarming level. Public lynching on mere suspicion, horrible rape epidemics, controversial and inflammatory statements from top leaders are coming too frequently. Do you think, international media will remain silent when the so called ''Secular and Biggest democracy in the world'' sliding this rapidly into a jingoistic, intolerant country heading towards Hindu fascism?Search for ‘Hinduism’ on the @nytimes website and the results are a revelation. EVERY single article is filled with naked Hindu hatred. There is no understanding, no nuance. It is relentless. This consistent assault on Hinduism.
And these are our "Friends".
Imagine what our enemies look like.

Most of these crime are not religious in nature. Bangladesh is not a crime free country.Hindus are 10 percent of population in Bangladesh.So it is expected that they will suffer 10 percent of the total crime. If a robber gang done a robbery in Hindu house does not mean Hindus were targeted for being hindus.The truth is, that robber gang may have done 10 robbery in muslim houses earlier without raising any religious angle.Criminals do not discriminate choosing their victims. Crime for land, properties, women are common in Bangladesh like any other countries.Just because some of those crime involves hindu minority, does not mean there is any systemic campaign against Hindus in Bangladesh.Ah a Bangladeshi preaching to Indians about "Hindus" ........... real NICE.
