Communal
forces have always played
on the fear that Hindus will be reduced to a miniority in their own
country
because Muslims marry four times and don't beleive in family planning.

INITIATIVES FOR COMMUNAL HARMONY
Politicians
and religious leaders
have been quoted extremely on the recent communal impasse. But what
about
the youth, who are in many ways most affected by the issue? What do
they
think? Do they have any solution to the Ayodhya dispute? Are they even
interested? Bombay Times commissioned ORG-Marg to survey Mumbai youths
to find out what they think.
"City
Youth Gives Thumbs
Down To Communalism",
The Times of India, Mumbai,15 March 2002,
[C.L53b], /eldoc/urban_issues/uu1_M056.html
How
do we repair Hindu-Muslim relations,
which have reached the nadir, especial after the recent happenings? I
have
tried in my humble way, through my speeches and writings, to impress
upon
my co-religionists to give up their confrontationist attitude towards
Hindus
whatever the provocation and try to arrive at a consensus with them on
controversial issues...

ENOUGH
has been said about the Ayodhya
episode — its legal status and its law and order dimensions.
We have
also seen how the larger political community tends to escape its
responsibility,
refuses to negotiate with real cultural-civilisational issues, and
reduces
the Supreme Court to a scapegoat.

RIOTS AND COMMUNAL HISTORY OF MUMBAI
Bombay
has achieved the dubious
distinction of setting an all India record of communal madness under
the
leadership of the Chief Minister of Maharashtra who has lost will to
govern
and has yet strong will to continue in the set of power. Whole Bombay
is
burning when these lines are being written. The city has begun to limp
back to normalcy after the riots of 6-12 December which erupted after
the
demolition of Babari Masjid.

Shames India"- Paper on Communal Riots,Institute of
Islamic Studies,

The
1993 communal riots of Mumbai,
in which over 1,000 people were killed, have had far-reaching effects,
including changes in the spatial concentration of the city, the
attitude
of Muslims towards the government and the political parties,
and
the way the residents perceive their city.
