Ambarsariaji, I'm saying that the term minority itself in India is a flawed concept as the real minorities who constitute less than 3% of population are never given their rights and are made to accept that they are sects of the large Hindu (as defined by Banaras based Brahmnical Institutions) society. This is unfair to all such communities and their identities will be at stake forever.


Going by Government's flawed logic, Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists belong to Hindu Society as they are not Muslims or Christians. With the same reasoning there shouldn't be two distinct acts governing Christian and Muslim Marriages as they both originated from Abraham. There should have just been a single act. If Christianity and Islam can be considered different from Judaism, why can't Sikhism, Jainism and Buddhism be considered distinct religions and not parts of Brahmnical Hinduism? The reason is well known. swordfight
