Some 13% of India's population is Muslim, yet Muslims account for just 3% of government employees, and an even smaller percentage are employed by private Hindu businesses

The author conveniently forgot to mention the percentage of Hindus employed by private Muslim businesses. There is no mention about the (secular???) government's Haj subsidy either.

What is disturbing is that some people believe that muslims are despised and discriminated by a large section of the Hindu majority and are leading a horrible life in India. This article paints a wrong picture about the situation in India. It tries to put all the blame on Hindus.
