Were they under Muslim spell? (Organiser, 31-8-2008); 
Smt Tanvir Fatima says that no positive gains have ever been coming through Congress’ Muslim appeasement to the Muslim community. 

What a falsehood this is! Was not the partition and creation of the Islamic State of Pakistan a gift of Congress party? 

Are not the Rs 350 crore (and increasing) subsidy to Muslims’ Haj pilgrimage; minority commission (no such commission anywhere in the world including Pakistan and Bangladesh), minority finance corporations, minority colleges, Urdu ghars, shadikhanas, Muslim first programmess, sites for Haj houses, waiver of loans to the tune of Rs 500 crore for Muslims in Andhra Pradesh alone, Rs 140 crore worth scholarships to Muslim boys and girls in Andhra Pradesh, payment of Rs 200,000 per year for 20,000 Muslim students studying engineering and Rs 50,000 per year for several thousand Muslims studying medicine, allowing mazars and mosques in the middle of roads, Urdu university etc., positive gains for Muslims? 

Whereas no such things are admissible to Hindus/Sikhs in Pakistan and Bangladesh. 

Above all, is not the increase of Muslim population and hence voting strength from under 10 per cent in 1951 to 14 per cent now a great and unbearable gain? 

The only positive gain that the Muslim fundamentalists are looking forward to and only one that matters to them appears to be the restoration of Aurangzeb-like Muslim rule in India.
