Normally we Pakistanis only know the genocide of Muslims being committed by India in Kashmir or if someone reads newspaper would know about massacre of Muslims in 2002 in Gujrat but the fact is that there has been hardly a year when Muslims are not subjected to genocide in past 70 years .. when it comes to hate towards Muslims - Congress and BJP are just two sides of the same coin..

Here is a brief summary.

1. Calcutta Muslim Genocide - 1964

http://news.bbc.co.uk/onthisday/hi/dates/stories/january/13/newsid_4098000/4098363.stm
Over 100 Muslims killed by Hindu mobs and 70,000 rendered homeless. BBC wrote , "So far more than 70,000 Muslims have fled their homes in the city, and 55,000 are sleeping in the open under army protection".
As per NY Times, the riots were initiated by Hindus.

2. Bhiwandi Muslim Genocide - 1970

Thousands on Muslims' houses were burnt. 200 Muslims killed between 7 and 8 May 1970. When RSS terrorists unleashed wrath on innocent Muslims.

Following the incident the Indian government formed a Commission headed by Justice Dinshah Pirosha Madon. The final report from the commission ran to seven volumes and was highly critical of the police for their failure to prevent the riots, the report was also highly critical of Shiv Sena for their part in the violence.

According to the Madon report of those arrested during the violence 324 were Hindu and 2183 were Muslim. The Madon report was highly critical of the police, stating that their action showed a clear "anti-Muslim bias". According to K. Jaishankar, of those arrested for clearly identifiable crimes during the violence in 1970, 21 were Hindu and 901 were Muslim, a figure disproportionate to the numbers of casualties (which Jaishankar gives as 17 Hindus and 59 Muslims).

The commission was categorical: “The organisation which has both directly and indirectly provoked the disturbances which took place in Bhiwandi, Khoni and Nagaon on May 7, 1970 and thereafter is the Rashtriya Utsav Mandal, the majority of the members of which belonged to the Jan Sangh or were pro-Jan Sangh, and the rest, apart from a few exceptions, to the Shiv Sena.”

3. Muradabad Muslims' Genocide - 1980

Over 2500 Muslims massacred with police as accomplice.
On August 13, 1980, a broad daylight massacre had occurred at the biggest Eidgah in Moradabad district of Uttar Pradesh when Muslims were offering Eid prayers. A domesticated Ppig was unleashed into the gathering. Muslims protested but police opened fire on them.
Around 40,000 Muslims had gathered at the Eidgah to offer annual prayers when a contingent of the state police and Provincial Armed Constabulary (PAC) opened fire and around 300 Muslims were killed.
Justice MP Saxena Commission report on the Moradabad massacare has not be tabled yet.

4. Nellie Muslims' Genocide - 1983

Over 5000 Muslims were slaughtered with sharpened instruments in 1983 by Hindu terrorists. On the ‘Black Friday’ of February 18, 1983, when the 8-hour-long Nellie Massacre took place in central Assam's Nagaon district (now Morigaon). The carnage is estimated to have left over 5,000 people dead, including the elderly and children. The official reports, however, put the death toll at only 1,819. Victims were barricaded for 6 months before undergoing slaughter and facing the worst face of Hindu terror.
"The Tiwari Commission report (not officially published yet) has blamed the AASU and the Bharatiya Janata Party among others for the violence unleashed on the alleged Bangladeshi people."
This massacre is known as the worst one after WWII. Most of those who were slaughtered with knives were kids and women.

6. Bhagalpur Muslims' Genocide - 1989

The Bhagalpur riots of 1989 refers to the violence between the Hindus and the Muslims in the Bhagalpur of Bihar, India. The riots started on 24 October 1989, and the violent incidents continued to happen for 2 months. The violence affected the Bhagalpur city and 250 villages around it. Over 1,000 people (around 900 of which were Muslims), were killed, and another 50,000 were displaced as a result of the violence. It was the worst Hindu-Muslim violence in independent India at the time.

According to official figures 1,070 people were killed & 524 injured. 15 out of 21 blocks of Bhagalpur were affected by the riots. 11,500 houses in 195 villages were destroyed, displacing 48,000 people. 68 mosques and 20 mazars were destroyed.

The Chandheri (also spelled Chanderi) village was attacked from three sides by the people from the adjoining villages on the evening of 27 October. The Yadavs of the neighbouring settlement had disapproved of the construction of a mosque in the village. The attackers set the mosque on the fire, along with some houses, killing 5 people.

At the Logain village, 116 Muslims were killed by a 4000-strong mob led by the police officer Ramchander Singh. The perpetrators buried the bodies in fields, and then planted cauliflower over the mass grave to hide the evidence. 14 people, including the former police officer, were convicted and sentenced to rigorous life imprisonment for the killings, in 2007.

7. Bombay Muslims' Genocide - 1992

The violence that scorched the Waghchores and their neighbours was just one episode in the intense riots that consumed India’s commercial capital after the demolition of the Babri Masjid in faraway Ayodhya on December 6, 1992. The destruction of the shrine sparked riots across India, but the violence was most intense in Mumbai – which was still known as Bombay at the time. Approximately 900 Mumbai residents were left dead in two bursts of rioting in December 1992 and January 1993.

The violence was widely reported as having been orchestrated by the Shiv Sena. An estimated 575 Muslims were martyred by Hindu terrorists.

8 - Pangal Muslims' Genocide - 1993

on 3 May 1993, the massacre of Pangal occured , when an indigenous Muslims community in Manipur, India, was attacked by the Meitie, who are the majority ethnic group of Manipur and are largely Hindu.

There are conflicting accounts of what started the violence, one account says Hindu separatists tried to buy arms from a Muslim arms smuggler and were rebuffed. Another account says that the Hindu rebels were trying to extort from a Muslim village who resisted and killed one of the rebel. The violence started on 3 May 1993 and continued will into the 5th May. Bus containing Muslims passengers were set on fire and clashes took places between Pangal and Meitei. People were killed in the roads; homes and shops were burned down. An estimated 90 to 130 people were killed.

Genocide of Muslims in Gujrat in 2002 and recently in Delhi in 2020 are anyway a simile of Hindu terror unleashed on Indian Muslims.

========================================================
Wish Muslims had migrated to Pakistan in 1947. They refused one migration and are in constant migration within India since then. Wish they had stood for Kashmiris when they were undergoing Indian state sponsored terrorism... one could only wish for this!!!
 
How deluded you're? It has been pointed thousand of times that the migration of population equal to whole of Pakistan (post-1971 measuring) was logistically impossible and the space was not available in the Pakistan itself, most of the Muhajirs occupied the space left out by Hindu/Sikh emigres, the net population exchange was nearly zero.

And Kashmiri insurgency started in 1989, Indian Muslims had seen many riots before that.
 
Excellent briefing. It's tragic that we forget our own regional history. We need to carefully document every pogrom and genocide so that the thin veil of secularism adorned by the Indian state is rudely torn away by the irrefutable track record of sustained Hindutva militancy.
 
None nearly as big as what Pakistan did with Bangladeshi Hindus in 1971.

Why are you obsessed with India's internal affairs ? I can understand your concerns about Kashmir but you should not be concerned about anything else that happens in India.

Btw, if you care for Indian Muslims so much you should open the doors for then like India has done for persecuted Hindus, Sikhs and Christians from Pakistan. Let's see how many Indian muslims take up that option.

Cooked up stories. 3 million people killed. Wow. Logic is dead.
 
Once Pakistan can take good care of migrants settled in Urban Sindh....Pakistan can lay claim on Indian Muslims as well and can build a good case there.

Till then...no chance. Indian Muslims know that their some of the relatives in Karachi are not treated well so they don't trust on Pakistan.

Ordinary Pakistanis may sympathize with Indian Muslims but Pakistani establishment and governments will give a DAMN about Indian Muslims.

Yes Pakistan does no wrong. Everything you do is cooked up. Your Muslims brothers in Bangladesh claim 3 million dead. Even if that number is exaggerated, the real is at least in hundreds of thousands.

Also, don't forget the genocide of Kashmiri Pandits in 1989 that Pakistani and Pakistan backed militants did and the genocide of 166 people in Mumbai by Ajmal Kasab and other Pakistanis.

Ask Indian Muslims themselves if they'd rather come to Pakistan or stay and resist the eroding of their heritage and legacy.

If we evacuate Indian Muslims tomorrow hypothetically speaking, mughal history in India will be erased. Indian Muslims are custodians of the same recent history that contributed to our own nation. We know that Modi, Yogi and Shah would gladly erase mughal and Islamic heritage from the history books - they even cry about this in foreign countries like they give a damn - hence Pakistan will encourage Indian Muslims to proudly defend their legacy. It's their home that they built. Why should they leave? Anyway, you're asking the wrong person. Ask Indian Muslims.

Bahaane maarne band karo.

Open doors for them and see how many come.

Hint: They won't.

Pragmatically speaking, most persons will chose the economically better side + some inertia is natural too.

True but when persecution gets really crazy, they migrate, like the Hindus and Sikhs from Pakistan who keep coming into India.

The violence was/is still a periodic occurrence, so while it may have pushed ghettoization but migration was a distant thought, that being said some do migrated, especially in early periods, maybe some stats can help.
 
What's your estimate?


The most generous estimate is still below a million, somewhere in hundred thousands. I'd say 2 to 3 lacs at the most if we're being real.

Oh god spare me the Star Plus theatrics. FAR MORE Muslims have been killed inside India in numerous pogroms since 1947. Anupam Kher and his Kashmir Pundits can come suck my d for all I care because mere kaan pakk gaye hain yeh sun sun 'wUt abOuT dA kaShMiRi pUnDiT genOxide'. Like Justin Timberlake said cry me a river.
