Yugoslavia,
Bulgaria and China have also adopted similar policy towards their
18%, 12% and 5% muslim minorities respectively. The main thrust
behind this policy has been that their population should not be
allowed to increase. With that end in view, all these countries have
adopted special preventive methods.
It is being experienced in the
communist countries that is not possible to bring those muslims in
the main stream of the nation and their loyalty cannot be relied
upon. Russian muslim militarymen posted in Afghanistan have startled
Russia by their behaviour. She had to withdraw her muslim
militarymen from Afghanistan. The secessionist movement erupted in
Muslim majority state like Azerbaijan has also startled communists.
Now they are realising that muslims minorities are a danger to the
unity of Soviet Russia, Yugoslavia etc, communists countries.
Communities of Indian origin have a
feeling to tolerance for various ways of worship and persons
following those ways. That is way they cannot adjust properly with
semetic religions, especially Islam being religiously dogmatic. But,
on account of their old Vaidik Hindu traditions they treated the
semetic people with the same feeling with which they used to see
other religious of Indian origion and their followers. That is why
they were deceived and are still being deceived. But after the
partition of India in 1947, due to the ill-behaviour of muslims with
non-muslims in Cyprus, Lebanon, Pakistan, Bangla Desh, Thailand,
Philipines and re-emergence of muslim problem in divided India, many
nationalist and awakened Indians are also compelled to re-consider
their approach about the Islam and followers of Islam in India. The
problem of minorities in India can correctly be assessed and gauged
and its solution found out only in the context of the above
mentioned facts and the happening in India, Pakistan, Bangla Desh
etc.
