We need to face the brute reality. Indian Muslims have been victimised ever since kar sevaks picked up pickaxes and trishuls.
Former solicitor-general Gopal Subramaniam on what the society can collectively do to prevent radicalisation of youth
The BJP is imposing its ideology, and the whole state apparatus is being used to suppress the minorities.
