Don’t trade in fake political correctness: Indian Muslims don’t deserve hypocrisy

First, don’t trade in fake political correctness. Indian Muslims don’t deserve hypocrisy because the assumption that straight talk on domestic terrorism will affect the entire community actually condemns the entire community. It also makes Indian Muslims more, not less, vulnerable to popular and political caricature. That encourages brutish communal responses that in turn are used by terrorists as justification. This is, wittingly or otherwise, forgotten by politicians of the kind who question their own government’s actions against SIMI, an organisation viewed as dangerous by many Muslim commentators.
