Is it harder to be a Muslim in India or a Hindu in Pakistan, or a Hindu in Bangladesh?

India unlawfully expels hundreds of Muslims to Bangladesh

After India deported hundreds of people to Bangladesh without trial, as confirmed by officials from both sides, activists and counsels have condemned the new expulsions, saying they are illegal and based on ethnic profiling.

The Indian authorities have said the deported individuals are undocumented migrants.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi's Hindu nationalist government has long maintained a strict stance against immigration, especially from Bangladesh, a country with a majority of Muslim population. Top Indian officials have called these immigrants "termites" and "infiltrators".

It has also sparked fear among India’s estimated 200 million Muslims, especially among speakers of Bengali, a widely spoken language in both eastern India and Bangladesh.

"Muslims, particularly from the eastern part of the country, are terrified," said veteran Indian rights activist Harsh Mander.

"You have thrown millions into this existential fear."

Bangladesh, largely encircled by land by India, has seen relations with New Delhi turn icy since a mass uprising in 2024 toppled Dhaka’s government, a former friend of India.

But India also ramped up operations against migrants after a wider security crackdown in the wake of an attack in the west — the April 22 killing of 26 people, mainly Hindu tourists, in Indian Illegally Occupied Jammu and Kashmir (IIOJK).

New Delhi blamed that attack on Pakistan, claims Islamabad rejected, with arguments culminating in a four-day conflict that left more than 70 dead.

Indian authorities launched an unprecedented countrywide security drive that has seen many thousands detained — and many of them eventually pushed across the border to Bangladesh at gunpoint.

‘We will shoot you’

Rahima Begum, from India’s eastern Assam state, said police detained her for several days in late May before taking her to the Bangladesh frontier.

She said she and her family had spent their life in India.

"I have lived all my life here — my parents, my grandparents, they are all from here," she said. "I don’t know why they would do this to me."

Indian police took Begum, along with five other people, all Muslims, and forced them into swampland in the dark.

"They showed us a village in the distance and told us to crawl there," she told AFP.

"They said: ‘Do not dare to stand and walk, or we will shoot you.’"

Bangladeshi locals who found the group then handed them to border police who "thrashed" them and ordered they return to India, Begum said.

"As we approached the border, there was firing from the other side," said the 50-year-old.

"We thought: ‘This is the end. We are all going to die.’"

She survived, and, a week after she was first picked up, she was dropped back home in Assam with a warning to keep quiet.

Bengali speaking Muslims being targeted
Rights activists and lawyers criticised India’s drive as "lawless".

"You cannot deport people unless there is a country to accept them," said New Delhi-based civil rights lawyer Sanjay Hegde.

Indian law does not allow for people to be deported without due process, he added.

Bangladesh has said India has pushed more than 1,600 people across its border since May.

Indian media suggests the number could be as high as 2,500.

The Bangladesh Border Guards said it has sent back 100 of those pushed across — because they were Indian citizens.

India has been accused of forcibly deporting Muslim Rohingya refugees from Myanmar, with navy ships dropping them off the coast of the war-torn nation.

Many of those targeted in the campaign are low-wage labourers in states governed by Modi’s Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), according to rights activists.

Indian authorities did not respond to questions about the number of people detained and deported.

But Assam state’s chief minister has said that more than 300 people have been deported to Bangladesh.

Separately, Gujarat’s police chief said more than 6,500 people have been rounded up in the western state, home to both Modi and interior minister Amit Shah.

Many of those were reported to be Bengali-speaking Indians and later released.

"People of Muslim identity who happen to be Bengali speaking are being targeted as part of an ideological hate campaign," said Mander, the activist.

Nazimuddin Mondal, a 35-year-old mason, said he was picked up by police in the financial hub of Mumbai, flown on a military aircraft to the border state of Tripura and pushed into Bangladesh.

He managed to cross back, and is now back in India’s West Bengal state, where he said he was born.

"The Indian security forces beat us with batons when we insisted we were Indians," said Mondal, adding he is now scared to even go out to seek work.

"I showed them my government-issued ID, but they just would not listen."

India have become an extremist country. They should be sanctioned.

Maybe Bangladesh should start deporting Indian agents to India also. Cancel their Bangladeshi citizenships for a start.

Forget all the local religious groups for a moment, here’s a fun fact, India is home to more Zoroastrians today than Iran, their land of origin.

Zoroastrians who are the original inhabitants of Persia, fled to India centuries ago when they were being persecuted during Islamic conquests. In India, they were never forced to convert. Instead, they found dignity, freedom, and the opportunity to thrive. Today, they are among the most respected and successful communities in India, known for their immense contributions to industry, philanthropy, and culture. The Tata group traces its origins to a Parsi family. Godrej - another giant business family in India - Parsi. Homi Jahangir Baba - Parsi nuclear physicist who is the father of India’s nuclear program. Freddie Mercury from the world famous British band The Queen belonged to an Indian parsi family. Rakesh Jhunjhunwala - The Big Bull of the stock markets in India - a true Indian dream. These are just few prominent examples out of hundreds of stories of Parsis finding a safe haven and a ladder to success in India, of course through their hard work.

Likewise, when China forcefully occupied Tibet, it was India that opened its doors to the Dalai Lama and the Tibetan Buddhist community. The serene town of McLeodganj near Dharamshala now serves as their spiritual and cultural headquarters. India didn’t just shelter them—it gave them the space to preserve their identity.

India’s whole history is full with examples of offering refuge to the persecuted. Even Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu once remarked that the Jews faced persecution everywhere in the worldexcept in India, where they never encountered hostility from the native population.

This is a living testament to India’s civilizational ethos that value coexistence over domination.

On a true global platform no Pakistani or Bangladeshi will ever dare discuss this topic. Any Pakistani attempting to defend their country’s record on minorities would be dismantled by facts, history, and real-life evidence. But in guarded online spaces like these, you’ll still see attempts to whitewash the reality by arguing that Pakistan and Bangladesh have been kinder to their minorities. It’s a tragic irony and frankly a poor joke that only exposes the deep-rooted discrimination embedded in those societies.

If Pakistan is indeed a haven for Hindus, let’s see some examples. Name the grand temples still functioning there. Show us the public Hindu festivals celebrated without fear or restriction. List the number of Hindus who’ve represented Pakistan in international sports. Tell us how many Hindus have held positions of real power—in the military, judiciary, or bureaucracy.

Silence speaks louder than spin.

What’s worse is not the lack of facts—it’s the lack of shame. The denial, the gaslighting, the manufactured narratives… all to avoid facing a hard truth. It’s not just delusion. It’s a deep moral failing when a society can’t even admit what it has done—or continues to do—to its most vulnerable.

If you must defend your nation, start with honesty. Everything else is just noise.

Harder to be a Muslim in India definitely.

Whatever incidents happen in Bangladesh or Pakistan are not state-sponsored. Those happen at people level and happen much less compared to what happens in India.

In India, Muslim oppression is state-sponsored (removal of article 370, anti-waqf bill, bulldozing Muslim homes, mosque demolitions etc.).

Ah I see..hence the illegal Muslim immigrants are coming to Bangladesh from India in millions

Absolutely...India is state sponsored targeting of Muslims...yet Muslims of Bangladesh don't want to leave India

Both countries are disasters when it comes to minority rights, and let’s be honest, they’re not exactly paradise for their majorities either.

Stop playing the game of “who’s the bigger bigot.” In India, a cow lyncher doesn’t just act, he votes for the people who cheer him on. In Pakistan, a mere accusation of blasphemy is enough to spark a mob with pitchforks.

Both nations are dry tinder, just waiting for a spark, and we all know how fast the body bags pile up once it lights.

So spare us the "who's more humane" debate, you're just comparing different flavors of the same sickness.

But let’s not ignore the elephant in the room, hatred toward Muslims in India runs deep. And Gaza's genocide laid it bare, too many Indians didn’t just stay silent, they cheered it on.

Paksitani victim mentality...

Be a ostrich...forget everything before they get their phainta... Then blame India Israel USA.


Hamas for no reason goes and kills 1000s of Israel...fires missiles and then hides among civilians - Israel retaliates...they are committing genocide.

The extremism we are seeing in India in modern times is similar to the extremism that was present in 1930's Germany (Nazi Germany).

Nazi Germany eventually had to be purged completely. Allied forces did exactly that.

Same solution needs to be applied to RSS India. India need to be invaded, annexed, balkanized, and purged. In other words, RSS India need to be completely de-sanghified for the region's stability.

How many concentration camps ? What is the death toll so far according to you ?

Note: to be clear I am not even asking for any sources to prove that allegation. just based on your perception.

Nope this is just a smoke screen for your desire to see as many Palestinians killed merely because most of them are Muslim.

To make matters worse you go out of way to stick your head into the r*** of Israel even though Israelis are deeply racist towards Indians.

Sure abusing me doesn't change the terrorist Muslim mentality of killing people for no reasons and then crying genocide
