The India-South Africa series-defining fact is the catastrophic decline of Indian red ball cricket where a visiting team can mock us with the 'grovel' word.
Lucknow though abides much like it is dwoicted in the article, it’d be wrong to say it does not know of riots, or has mostly forgotten – the ones back ib the day now irrelevant to the new generations : it has had a very turbulent peace in the times when riots didn’t effect and irrespective – there’s always an entrenched anxiety as surfaces on aspects, civilians and authorities alike. In the recent past, though even such animosities have eschewed wanton violence as used to be the norm.
On select days every year, it’s normal to decry heavy trucks entering the city with added battalions of constabukary, riot vehicles doing the round and of recent, drone cameras scruitinizing masses from above.
Hindu and Muslims have had relations unlike such in other cities, but Lucknow unlike Delgi or Ahmedabad has a very distinctive Shia pedigree which, is quite unique in India.
In the recent evacuation hassles, there were around 300 students stranded in Iran – all from Lucknow. Their parents mailed Modi’s office pleading for help and all 300 were back in 3 days, unharmed. All shia from one city.
Muharram is when the authorities take over in full force – the routes where the processions would be at, if not, alternate ways to fo ahead or corral the devotees to be whisked away in heavy security, and the religious Sunni clergy are out to intercede ar any hint of mischief.
Still mosr processions pass through alleys in old city with dense populations and all Sunni residents. So, stoning happens, and worda are exchanged but as i said, not the kind of mayhem as was the norm happens any longer.
Before the partition it was way worse and the Viceroy of India had ro personally intervene in quite a few occasions when it felt that the Shias might not survive Lucknow.
After partition, there were no British but the Hindu population was much more potent than it was ever before : Nawabs of Oudh had taken them along and they had too, never felt danger being Hindus.
As it happened, anything untoward transpired and Hindus would reach the police before the Shias could, which in time led to another inexplicable change – which was the increasing apathy amongst Sunnis to attaxk their Shia neighbors just because someplace Iran and KSA were at loggerheads.
I think we can experiment Singapore model where I am told, Housing Societies allot houses to different communities to ensure all religious groups stay in ONE society and area.
In Jammu & kashmir were non muslims are less than 30% ,but being in majority we not rape their daughters ,kill innocent kids ,set fire their houses.they are equal have rights to live peacefully like all.
You guys were doing it from 1946 to 1999 when all.hindus and pandits left the valley…imagine hindu migration in hindu dominated countey. BJP has set the record straight. Why muslims are problem in thailand, Myanmar, China , USA and whole of world…do a fact finding check. Why have.majority of european countries banned head scarf and construction of mosques….why dont gulf countries absorb syrian and afghan refugees…muslim helping muslim instead of muslim begging infront of christian europe. Shame. This paper is anti hindu….
There are good things about this article, but it begins with sheer unreason in speaking of “the recent communal riots in Delhi when a few Muslim neighbourhoods were targeted by mobs”. Do the authors not understand something which has been said by so many, that targetted violence cannot be described as a riot?
This is nothing but Hindu bashing. Muslims cannot assimilate or integrate in any society. They invariably have contempt for the law of the land and accept Sharia. In these circumstances, please do not blame the majority community which is by and large tolerant of the Muslims.
Delhi has also been a very peaceful city for the Muslims as Jaipur and other many peaceful countries. But in the past decade the population of minority Muslims increased as a part of their very common known strategy for occupying the areas. Then challenge the peaceful majority and police, block the roads by mass namaz , attack on Hindus, abuse them , throw stones on police , teasing Hindu girls, and even murdering their parent, Muslim biker gangs attacking the peaceful majority and police, these common programs were continue after they reached to 23% of population. This same happened in Ahmedabad. And make the thing more worse they regularly attacked Hindu temples and religious procession such as rathyatra and Ganesh utsav. And targeting the Hindu or christian girls is also a well-known practice of such radical Islamic jehadis. This same modusoprendy was used in one of the most peaceful country Myanmar. Anywhere in the world when Muslims are 2 to 15 %they remain peaceful or they pretend to be like that. Suddenly when they became more than 20% they start to settle in selected area for their dominance where they even challenge the police and government. Start attacking and targeting the majority Hindu peaceful people. Well these are the very common glimpse of the common jehadi programs. Which is the route cause of riots. And every time the majority suffers the police and government suffers who never want any more tensions like riots .it was started after the CAA decision. It has nothing to do with any regular citizen of any religion but only to give the shelter to the millions of Hindu refugees who reached here in the only one country of Hindus. Already about 50 millions of Hindus were killed by enormous horrible mascre and rapes in the neighboring countries Pakistan Bangladesh and Afghanistan which were the part of Hindustan or India. Remaining most were converted to Islam to save their families and women. This happened every where in the world to make 56 Islamic countries. And these terrorist jehadi Muslims always blame other religion whose people are the real victims. They always blame Israel for Palestinian crisis but do they ever welcomed Jews on their own motherland? They want to spread in America and Europe and entire world but always protesting the very small minority of jews in their own tiny mother land.these are the main reasons of the clashes with Muslim minorities anywhere in the world no matter Delhi or Gujarat or Myanmar, Bosnia,Palestinian. Always the majority people and the government and police is attacked and always the anti government anti bjp anti Hindu propogandist come to save the hideous crimes of minority and put blame on majority. Actually these above articles are the part of the common fake propaganda run by such sleeper cells and the world and peaceful majority and police should be aware of this.
COuld be true that some areas in the country see little communal tension , but there could be many reasons for this. But the stark fact is that even such “peaceful” areas are today crumbling under the onslaught of aggressive HIndutva and constant on line barrages from ISIS and its cohorts. What held good ten years ago, may change in front of our eyes now, unless Governments play a firm hand.
Facts are missing. Need clarity on some points.

Factually incorrect on almost all points. Wrong on recommendations too. An immature article.
