What is this MAJORITY - MINORITY game all about? Who taught us to play this cruel game?
It is this evil thing called "religious identity" -- not Religion itself -- that is the founding stone of COMMUNALISM.
The British colonial Administration started counting the people of this land by their religous identities. Our society, politics or economy before the advent of the British did not function around religious identities of the populace. God knows that there are many other ways of classifying people. Language and culture are better and bigger identifiers, each religion being a contributor to our overall culture.
