#2 India is in an untenable position, surrounded by enemies - Bangladesh, Pakistan, and China, with Burma possibly being a surrogate for China. India needs to develop its own resources, get its people involved in general prosperity, and build a first-class military. It's going to have to fight a three- or four-front war the next time Pakistan decides to be adventurous. When they do, India needs to expel ALL its muslims into Pakistan, which would totally destroy that "nation"'s economy and culture. Sealing the border with Bangladesh would cause the collapse of that muslim mini-state, as Bangladesh has a hard time feeding its own people, and has no resources or major industry to maintain an economy.

#3 OP, the Indian muslim that I know (obviously anecdotal evidence) can't stand the Pak's. Not all who are nominally muslim in India support India's enemies.

#4 I know a Pakistani Muslim who moved to India because he couldn't drink booze. He then moved here and is happy as a distiller. He said, "God is merciful so I need to give him something to be merciful for". Funny guy.
