Union Finance Minister Nirmala Nirmala Sitharaman on Monday made some shocking comments on the situation of Muslims in India. She said that they are in a good position. Nirmala asked how the Muslim population would increase if there were attacks on the community. She gave a strong response to the perception of the Western nations that attacks are happening on the Minorities in India. Their population will not grow if their lives are in trouble, she said.
Taking a question on ‘Violence on Muslims’ – ‘Negative Western Perception’ of India’, Nirmala Sitharaman gave a strong counter.”India has the second-largest Muslim population in the world, and that population is only growing in numbers. If their lives are made difficult with the support of the state, I would ask, will this happen in India in the sense, will the Muslim population be growing more than what it was in 1947? Their situation is problematic in Pakistan which was formed as an Islamic nation,” she said.
The minority population is coming down rapidly. There is no such situation in India. The law and order issue is a concern all over the nation. It is false that attacks are happening to Muslims in India. It is not right to make allegations without knowing the truth, she fumed.
“The Minorities count is coming down. A few Muslim sects have been decimated. Whereas in India you would find every strand of Muslims doing their business, their children getting educated,” Nirmala Sitharaman said, giving a strong response to the allegations of Western nations on the situation in India. She also urged them to get to the ground level to know what is happening in India.
The Union Finance Minister gave assurance on the revival of the Indian economy post the Covid pandemic. People survived despite Covid bringing uncertainty. They faced challenges. They came back to the businesses and this is the example of Indian people’s resilience, she said.
Union Minister Nirmala Sitharaman said that Muslims in India are free and have food, shelter, and clothing, unlike the people in Pakistan. She invited those who have written stories against India to see what is happening. She also dared them to prove the allegations.
