Summary: | The Muslim question has been a burning issue in the socio-economic, political and psychological currents of the entire sub-continent since it became a part of the British Empire. This issue led to the partition of the country into India and Pakistan. The Muslim question is still looming large in divided secular and independent India without any solution in sight. The author discusses the social, political and demographic milieu of the Indian Muslims, the communal situation in the country, secular social movements, the Hindu-Sikh conflict, Muslim strategy for survival etc. (DÜI-Sen) |
