It is true that the demographic trends in India is against the Indics. But beyond a point demographics dont work. The impact of demographics can easily be overcome by other factors. Good example a few million Jews against 100s of millions of Arabs. In our own subcontinent, first a handful of Muslims dominated the country, followed by even fewer goras. In the reverse direction, our Pakistani brethren and cistern here can tell us what the Sikh minority did in Punjab during the Sikhshahi era. And last but not the least since this has been started by a Bengali speaking Mussalman, may I remind him of what 93K Punjabi and Pushtoon Mussalmans did to his 60 million plus brethren in 1970-71, it needed sardarjis to get them off the hook. So, Bengali speaking Mussalmans should be the last qaum on this subcontinent to derive any comfort from demographics.
The key really then is Unity and even more importantly Strategic Intent.
And strategic intent was what India's (alleged) founding fathers lacked in 1947. Had they any true strategic vision, they wud have realised that India's destiny was to be the Indic civilisational nation state par excellence as it was Pakistan's to be the Islamic civilisational nation state in Southern Asia and PRC's of being the Sinic civilisational nation state par excellence.
They made two strategic blunders in 1947. One was capturing Kashmir which was a part of Pakistan demographically and geographically. India shud have struck largely to the Chenab line, keeping Jammu and Ladakh with India and letting Kashmir Vale, the Pir Panjal region and GB with Pakistan. The military and political capital which was wasted in J&K could have been used better for absorbing Nepal, Bhutan and Sikkim to India. The second was not in enforcing a Punjab style demographic reengineering in Bengal, NorthEast and Purnia district of Bihar- it was an amazing act of carelessness living a large mass of potential Republiksfiende in sensitive border lying area. Had our leaders done this, it wud have given the Republic of India demographically and geographically a far better defensible frontier than it has currently; and as a byproduct perhaps left the three great civilisational nation states- India, United Pak and PRC with little to dispute against each other.
