As an Indian muslim,not even once i was discriminated on the basis of my religion.Infact,in some occassions i was benefited that i was a muslim.
During my schooling time i was eligible for several minority scholarships,in which a percentage of my school fees was obtained in the form of scholarships because i belonged to "Other backward Class" which included muslims,christians, some castes of hindus etc.
when i wrote my entrance exam,whose score decided my college entry,my rank was significantly improved when minority quota was considered (30000 becomes 12000).
In my opinion being born into a particular religion doesn't matters (though its true that it matters in some places of india) its your hardwork,the hardwork of your parents and a bit of your luck that really matters.
For ex:,My dad was central govt. employee bt later took some risks to give it up and turn into full time bussiness and it worked,me and my sibblings enjoy muc better standards of life.May be my kids will enjoy even better .
The fact that i was born muslim had hardly anything to do anything with it.
let me give you another even better example:
M. A. Yousuf Ali
M. A. Yousuf Ali - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mr.Yusuffali M.A was born in a Muslim family in Thrissur District in Kerala.Due to his own hardwork he pioneered the famour
EMKE GROUP which runs the famours
lulu hypermarkets
This guy was born a muslim into an typical indian family but due to his hardwork alone he succeeded. His kids will now enjoy a much better platform which they may clim even greater.His religion doesn't really matters.
