The relationship between Hindus and Muslims in India over the last two decades (2005–2024) has undergone significant shifts, influenced by political, social, and economic factors.

2005–2014: Relative Stability with Isolated Communal Clashes

1. Political Landscape – The period was dominated by the Congress-led UPA government, which focused on inclusive development and minority welfare schemes.


2. Major Events – The aftermath of the 2002 Gujarat riots still influenced discourse, but large-scale violence was relatively less frequent compared to the 1990s.


3. Terrorism & Security – Incidents like the 2008 Mumbai attacks and bombings in various cities strained relations but were seen as external threats rather than direct Hindu-Muslim conflicts.


4. Legal & Social Developments – Cases like the Babri Masjid demolition continued in courts, but the issue remained largely political rather than leading to fresh communal violence.


5. Communal Clashes – Riots occurred (e.g., the 2013 Muzaffarnagar riots), but the scale of polarization was lower compared to the next decade.



2014–2024: Increased Polarization & Political Mobilization

1. Political Shift – With the BJP’s rise to power in 2014, a strong Hindutva narrative became more mainstream, influencing policies and social discourse.


2. Major Events – The revocation of Article 370 (2019), the Ayodhya verdict (2019), and the CAA (2019) became major flashpoints, leading to debates, protests, and communal clashes (e.g., Delhi riots 2020).


3. Rise of Mob Violence – Lynching incidents over beef consumption and cow vigilantism increased, deepening divides.


4. Social Media & Misinformation – Digital platforms played a crucial role in both spreading hate narratives and fostering interfaith solidarity.


5. Legal & Social Policies – Laws like the anti-conversion (so-called "love jihad") laws and the hijab controversy in Karnataka led to increased Hindu-Muslim polarization.



Comparison & Key Differences

2005–2014 saw communal tensions but was relatively stable
, with violence mostly limited to specific incidents like Muzaffarnagar (2013).

2014–2024 witnessed greater communal polarization, partly due to political narratives, social media, and legal changes.

Mob violence and lynchings increased post-2014, whereas earlier tensions were more related to specific riots or terror attacks.

Court rulings on religious disputes (Ayodhya, triple talaq, Article 370) became more significant in the latter decade.

Social integration existed in both periods, but post-2014 saw more segregation in some areas due to rising distrust.


In summary, while Hindu-Muslim relations have historically had challenges, the last decade (2014–2024) saw a more pronounced divide and mobilization compared to the previous one, largely driven by politics, legal changes, and social media narratives. :inti
 
Chaiwala Modi has been damaging India since 2014. Slow poison. :inti

Under his shortsighted leadership, India declined domestically and lost many regional allies.

He should've stuck to making chai. Politics is clearly not his cup of tea (no pun intended).

It didn't pick up the Indian soldiers joining the IDF and committing the most atrocities in Gazza for the joy of killing Muslims?
 
How did they even come up with the term "love jihad"... what clowns :))

Jihad at its essence sure is beautiful (lovely) :)
Love Jihad is when the Muslim guy meets a Hindu Girl, introduces himself as a Hindu. Befriends her, makes her fall in love. Even establishes physical contact. When she is neck deep in the relationship he reveals his real name. At that time, she either breaks the relationship or just accepts Islam to marry him. The ones that comes out in open will become Newsworthy. Arnab will be screaming for a few days on his TV channel. Eventually no one cares after a month or so. Rinse and repeat.

PS- Do you think offensive Jihad to conquer Kafir lands is lovely?
