Rational: It is my humble opinion that muslims in India are much safer than muslims in Pakistan. I want to hastily add that Babri Masjid incident was an aberration, perpetrated by fanatics. Indian muslims enjoy more freedom than muslims in Pakistan. Among Pakistanis, there is so much of sectarian violence and the sunnis, Shiites and Mujahirs don't get along. Unfortunately Pakistanis do not follow the glorious and sacred teachings of Koran. In Pakistan, being a muslim does not guarantee freedom of speech, association etc, whereas In India, such things are guaranteed. If that is so, What about other religious groups in Pakistan? Indian muslims by and large never gave up their spirit of Indianess. So also other religious and ethnic groups. If 95% of Indians approve the Indian nuclear stand, naturally that 95% should include muslims too for the simple reason that the Hindus constitute only 85%. It is not too late. Pakistan and India can live like good neighbors, as is the case with Canada and USA. Just a flight of ideas: India of the future is so strong, prosperous, benign and neighborly, Pakistan and Bangla Desh might want to become part of India, just like PR wants to be part of US. Hey, who wants that added burden, responsibility and their problems? JPR
