“What they (Muslims) didn’t do as rulers, they must now as citizens”!!
The author clearly exposes the false narrative of Indian sub continent Muslims! who face an identity crisis worse than that of Hindus!! Muslims were NOT the rulers but Hindu slaves who got converted to Islam!! Their position was no better than average Hindus!! This FACT was also confirmed by eminent Pakistani Muslims!!

Do Muslims come from Mars?? If yes, they should move there!! Else, they should divorce Islam & marry humanity!!
Lovely piece. A very enjoyable read indeed. Such people ought to try their hand in politics or guide other politicians. India needs a lot of them.
Very hard language author has used which difficult for many to stay connected with the peace and understand it properly.
