The political algorithm is bringing change to India' religious equation. There emerges news report that around 43 Muslims have converted to Hinduism in Uttar Pradesh. Here is the link. Some may want to call it reconversion though. They may say that these people's ancestors were once Hindus. 100 years back or 500 or beyond, one cannot be sure, their ancestors were Hindus. May be true. But what we know is that they were Muslims and now they are Hindus. Someone quipped: Which Hindu caste did they convert into?
At the same time, there are Hindus who are threatening to become Muslims. Here is the link. These people argue that they have been discriminated against by those in power. And so as a mark of protest they are considering joining the Islamic camp.
