It seems there are lots of misgivings (created ofcourse) about Indian Muslims that they are a supressed lot and in India they are discriminated, tortured etc etc.. Through this thread I will like to post real figures in various walks of life. I will be as maticulous and honest as humanly possible. I would request members to please remain as objective as possible;
Let me begin from Indian parliament and Supreme court of India. Here are the figures;
1. Total number of members of Lok Sabha (Indian Parliament)= 508
number of Muslim members = 28
this amounts to about 5.6%
(source:
Lok Sabha)
2. Total number of judges in Supreme Court = 23
number of muslims =2 (8.7%)
Chief Justice is from the so called lower caste
Thre is one sikh and Christian Justice also.

Supreme Court of India - CJI & Sitting Judges)
Here is one link which in my view gives quite reliable information about Indian Muslims;
Syed Najiullah : The Status of Muslims in India | Indian Muslims
I need some time to dig the data from as many government departments as possible to post here the most authentic information. Let members judge for themselves how Muslims are placed in India and how their lot can be improved further.
