How close are Indian Muslims to a genocide?

It goes back deeper and more convoluted so some historical context is necessary.

1. Technically the “Majority” numbers that made Pakistan was EP. However the political powerhouses were kept in the west with the unionists and the brown “sahibs” of the AIML.

2. Even pre-partition Bengal was a poorer area of India while having greater population density and hence required higher investment to bring up. Right after partition the wealth was concentrated in Jute (a dying industry) with no other industrial setup brought in.

3. Bhutto and the industrialists post partition viewed EP as a white elephant to their greater plans as a cabal for Pakistan( still run by cabals today).

4. With India in between, this wasn't a Alaska - Canada situation to work through. Indian intelligence was not involved in Sabotage from the 50’s due to the relative free movement between the Bengals. This however was not the sole source of dissent as a condescending attitude towards Bengali culture and race existed right after partition.

5. Technically, the earliest thoughts on a Hindu-Muslim partition of India had no unified state and referred to two states east and west.

all accepted, but it's strategic, monetary and political significance from today's standpoint certainly cannot be peanuts?
Given the nature of the forum apart from secondary political and economic advantages, what kind of strategic threat would have a fully functional EP posted to India?

IF that was the case then why didn't India exterminate its Muslims in the decades between Partition and Pakistani achieving the Bomb?

Already answered it on page one.

Under a unified national thought?
EP would be a strategic thorn(as it was in 65) and would have forced the already massive armed forces of India fearing a two front war to being attacked from all sides.
It would also have likely been relegated as a massive Chinese Naval base and would have been to India what the US military naval presence is to the Chinese in Taiwan.

By 1970 plans to start modernizing the east were slowly begun through the efforts of some good natured bureaucrats and military personnel but the otherwise myopic and fairly bigoted ruling class had done its damage.

Again, its the effort that counts. What is Singapore if nothing more than one island? Honest people and effort make it a major influence and military power.
