Shielding Muslims through protectionism causing their social exclusion

The self-proclaimed seculars know that the Muslim women are living in the dungeons of abuse and suppression, but they don't want to challenge anyone because they think, 'Oh, well this is their religious and cultural way.'

One of our greatest challenges here in India is that these so called liberals and progressives, who are willing to chastise Hindus for any and every of their customs and beliefs, don't always stand with the progressive Muslims because in the interest of freedom of religion and civil liberties and political correctness, they don't want to offend personal and collective choices of majority of Muslims.

These altruists are mostly left-wing Hindus, who in the name of protecting them from the right-wing Hindus, are building protective walls around Muslims, without realising that such secluded living leads to social exclusion of Muslims from the larger Indian society. Muslim ghetto-isation is the undeniable outcome, both in India and in the West.
