Mr. D’Cruz’s letter is hurtfully critical of India, which sustains him, his family and fellow Christians. America bans eating horse flesh, Taiwan bans eating cat and dog meat. India is not slave to Central Asian barbarian savage invaders, Christians who were escaping Roman persecution and later came as poor traders from England. India can boldly and emphatically enact its own laws.
Seven global, Non-Indian religions came to land of Hindus and now are surviving in land of 80% Hindus. Thousand years ago, Arabian traders came to land of Hindus, nomadic Moguls invaded and settled in land of Hindus. British East India Company came to land of Hindus. India was, is and will remain land of Hindus. All these religions survive because Hinduism is absolutely secular, tolerant, inclusive and respect to all guest religions.
Even though India is secular it has got laws to protect any religion. Therefore Mr. Modi is right to project himself as a Hindu from land of Hindus. Population blame: One Hindu man, wife one child equals 3 members. One Muslim, four wives, four children equals nine members. So population experts are correct to blame Muslims for demographic imbalance. Has champion of secularism, D’Cruz, attended non-Christian place for prayer?
