There is no right or left or center! When it comes to RSS and Hindutva it is only the WRONG WING. They are truly communal and racist. That's what they are and must be called so.
Well, from an Indian perspective, what Muslims have being doing for the past 50 years in India, especially in their majority areas, they are facing the same. The advantage of the appparently persecuted Muslims nowadays is social media in these modern times where every event is widely examined. The Hindus never had the Internet to expose the atrocities of the Muslims. So guys, what you sow you shall reap.
Its Hindu - Wrong Wing, neither right nor left in fact it is a euphemism calling them right wing who are nothing but racist communal people, hard core killers who are currently having Indian, national and state patronage! They are getting away with the worst kind of pogroms since 2014.
Absolutely a great exposé on Modi and the BJP and their attack on Islam in India. But instead of "either or" I would do "both and" - that is I think an intersectional analysis wherein gender and Islamophobia are seen to work together to disempower Islamic women and insult Islamic men (you can't stop us from attacking "your" women) is a great way in. Just a thought in response to some of the criticism leveled at your work.
I am grateful now that my parents and grandparents chose to come to Pakistan . At the same time my heart bleeds at the fate of fellow Muslims who chose to stay behind .
Though in solidarity with the troubles of Indian Muslim women caused by targeted hate by the RW, I feel you are being pretentious in demanding that potential allies speak only on your own terms. Different people will fight with different agendas and methods. As the weaker party, it would be prudent to accept any help you can get instead of impatiently denouncing and pissing off those who could be sympathetic and help. The RW claps its hands in glee whenever Muslims and their potential allies fight often viciously on SM. Your differences are minor when compared to the enormity of your challenge with the RW. Also, politics takes strange turns. What seemed like enemies could be today's allies. Shiv Sena in Maharashtra is the best case in point. Its always best for minorities everywhere in the world to keep all doors open.
India is as much country of Muslims as the majority faith, we love our country and would not go anywhere else..dont people see how other majoritarian faiths in other countries where Indians crave to go treat the minorities? Constitutional rights are equal for all faiths...No government can take away those rights...Government is supposed to serve citizens and not dictate on personal matters like religion..they have no right..let all secular citizens unite and call off the charade of the people who resort to faith related issues..lets do it the Gandhian way....Satyagraha....if millions march toward Delhi ...will they kill all/ jail all...?
I, being an Indian Hindu, acknowledge and apologise for the rampant majoritarianism in present India. Many a times, we have brushed things under the majoritarian carpet as their issues (your issues). Muslim Indians along with several minority groups feel threatened on a daily basis in a country that promised religious security. Post Partition India was never meant solely for Hindus. It was for everyone that subscribed to the Idea of India. The one job that a minority segment has in any democracy is to make sure that numbers aren’t weaponised. And we as Indian Hindus have failed time and again. Thanks to our own biases and propaganda journalism by our traditional media. Let dissent never die. Let voices thrive.
She want to say 99.9% terrorists are Muslim in worldwide who all against other religion and also in India many terrorists are found Muslim like in other country found terrorist are Muslim. Rana am I right or wrong??? Terrorist are terrorists same culprit also. They have no religion

The same people who were silent on triple talaq, polygamy and nikah halala have suddenly found their voice...

It is women like you who are going to play a very impossible role in India’s future. Just wait and see
Very moving essay, Rana. God help us as a country

I understand your pain Rana! I hope and pray that this country returns to its senses and peace and harmony prevails!
