I have been lot of post from Pakistani's about Muslims in India. I have found a lot of times things reported are not accurate, but far from reality. I therefore thought of starting this thread.
Note:- This thread is about common day life not about riots etc, we all know riots occurred in India and we all know both sides started the riots and killed (Minus selective readers). So that is not the discussion of this thread. The discussion is common day life.
1) Muslims girls are forced to Marry Hindus.
Fact is no one in India can force Muslims to sing Vande Matram and forcing to marry seems farfetched, also people who say this should get some proof as well.
2) Muslims are forced to change their tradition attire etc.
Fact, if you are more interested to find how much freedom they have to go to Bandra station in Mumbai. Where Muslims block the road and do Nawaz on road. Now if they are free to do that and many other examples. How can they be forced for petty things?
The fact is what I have seen grown up is very different from how people outside specially Pakistani's see it. I have a general feeling that since Pakistan was created based on some people telling Muslims that Hindus will ill treat them. They always feel that Muslims in India are being ill treated. What is further bad is these people never try to open their eyes and see the facts.
I have lived with Muslims in India, being minority they always live together, generally in one Area. Where ever they live they generally dominate to the extent that outsiders actually fear (This is the fact, in those localities you are seen either as a Muslim or Non Muslim).
I have seen many societies where Muslims are in Majority that they have converted a house/flat into either a Masjid or Madarsa. The fact is both are illegal by law, you cannot have a religious place in residential building (You can create one in the ground). I personally lived in one society (Brahma Estate Kondhwa, Pune) Where Muslims were more in number and they tried creating Madarsa etc again illegal.
My point is when they have so much guts that they try to force their way of living on others how come they be oppressed?
Another fact is while Muslims are always united to an extent that they are seen as vote banks, Hindus are not as united as people feel. They are more divided on lines of state, language etc (North Indian south Indian, Maharastrian, Tamil, Telgu etc.).
Some people simply ignore when Muslim do something against Hindus but will highlight anything even simplistic against Hindus. E.g. Muslims also have places where they do not allow Hindus to buy property, have you ever seen that in News? Even India media always play support minorities yet people feel they are oppressed. The fact of the matter is if you are Muslim in India you can easily make any wrong thing against you as a oppression and play victim. This goes to show much society protect them.
In the end, In India a Muslim cannot be forced to do even small things against their wishes and some people believe that they have been forced to change their religious values.
I would like to ask you to prove this or accept the fact. What is on the ground is important than what you believe. Also use an international forum to learn about others rather than just believing what you believe. There are so many Indian Muslims here, ask them about their living rather than forcing your views on others.
