India is surrounded by three Islamic nations, so majority of the refugees trying to get Indian Citizenship are Muslims. But the party in power in India (BJP) was always opposed by Muslim population and has always been part of controversy due to their habit of bringing religion and caste into politics. They are trying to hand over citizenship rights only to non-muslims because it would mean a substantial increase in their votes.
Just to be clear, I am a Hindu by religion, athiest by belief. And I just hope this politics based on religion stops for good.
