<<This, precisely, is what I said would happen Mohan when (not if) the BJP got elected Mohan. India is going the way Pakistan went a generation ago...that is, towards the politics of religion-based, ultra nationalist, chest beating political-posturing... that will
lead to other things quite unintended by Mr. Fernandes. >>

Worswick:

As a disinterested party, I want to submit the following comment on your presentation of facts as you perceive them.
1: Indian constitution guarantees religious freedom and practice, unlike the brother-state on its border.
2: Mr.Fernandes is not a chest beating Hindu. He is of a different religious persuasion. If Mr. Fernandes a nonHindu speaks, he speaks for India and Indians and not for Hindus.
3: The father of India's Missile programme is not a Hindu but actually a Muslim. India does not consider him in terms of religion, but in terms of Indianess.
4: Your characterization of India falling into the hands of Hindu nationalists is far-fetched and an oxymoron, considering that nonHindus are in Govt and industry.

Respectfully submitted
