Another way of looking at the same issue is to consider the number of muslims in Pakistan who have faced the brunt of blasphemy accusations, and the number of (falsely accused) people who are condemned to lifetime in prison in order to protect themselves from societal fury.
That said, in the long run the fast-track and slow-track (cleansing) plot-lines are likely to merge and both lands will achieve Hindu-free status. This may actually help reduce strife in South Asia (peace of the graveyard) so this is not completely a bad thing. However the effects of polarization will be the most severe on the unprotected minorities (which includes free-thinking people). That will certainly be a tragedy and must be avoided at all costs.

mob of nearly 3,000 attacked Hindu households and a temple in eastern
Bangladesh after two youths from the community allegedly insulted the
Prophet Muhammad on Facebook.
Police on Monday arrested 17
people, including the principal of Bagmara Madrasa, for the attack on
the temple and over two dozen households at Homna in Comilla district,
about 100km south east of Dhaka, last week.
Locals and police said teachers and students of eight
madrasas in Homna upazila led the assault on Hindus at Baghsitarampur
village.
Twenty-eight families have been affected in the attacks.
A mob of nearly 3,000 carried out the attacks and looted belongings of the Hindus, most of whom were poor farmers and fishermen.
Villagers
said a call was made from the loudspeakers at Jamia Arabia Islami
Emdadul Ulum Madrasa at Rampur village near Baghsitarampur to launch the
attack on Hindus.
Before the assault, leaflets were distributed
for the last several days in the madrasas claiming that two Hindu youths
had slandered the prophet in a Facebook post April 27.
Police
arrested the principal of Bagmara Madrasa at Muradnaga in connection
with the attacks. However, the main accused, Nazrul Islam, who took the
lead in distributing the leaflets is still at large.
