India’s Hindu hardliners attack Muslim ex-foreign minister’s home

Al Jazeera  

Salman Khurshid published a book last month in which he compared Hindu nationalism under Modi to ‘extremist groups’ such as ISIL. Salman Khurshid, a Muslim from the main opposition Congress party, published a book last month in which he compared the kind of Hindu nationalism that has flourished under Modi to “extremist groups” such as ISIL. Police said a mob of about 20 people from a hardline local Hindu group massed outside Khurshid’s house near the northern city of Nainital on Monday. Activists say that religious minorities in Hindu-majority India have faced increased levels of discrimination and violence since Modi’s Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party came to power in 2014.
