If the multicultural societies have to survive, such laws are important. I mean it if Hindus cause trouble in that society then they should sanction such laws against them as well. Otherwise the overall character of that society will be at stake. If any religion is so great, they should stick to living with their co-religionists in their own country.
This narrative goes against the "Two nations theory".
This theory states that religion which is great will get its own separate country and will publicly thank the ghost of Jinnah at a drop of a hat for the next 75 years.
