massive muslim protests. if the kafirs go on provoking muslims, how long these protests can go on.
there was a time that every dec 6th (day of babri demolition) used to be a day of violent protests, now hardly any one notices a stir.

In reply to S Qureishi. Yeah I don't agree about first gen identification stuff among gujus. They are heavily assimilated even among hindi speakers from the get go. Even great grandparent generation gujus speak Hindi.

I was just giving my credentials about understanding Bengal and Bengalis. I explicitly said me, Tamils and Gujjus lived in a sea of Bengalis and Telugus.

Bengalis are present in hoards all over India from Gujrat to TN. Madraasis/Gujratis being richer in general don’t go out as often within India but in Bengal’s colleges there are plenty of them. Marwaris (discount Gujjus or vice-versa) are present in hoards in Bengal.

Gujjus, Marathis and Bengalis are ordinary North Indians, no different from Biharis or Marwaris. All of them can speak Hindi.

Won’t expand anymore.

In reply to S Qureishi. @Bhim There is nothing amusing in the tweet u posted. As i have said, less-Hindu ethnicities, have limited understanding of Hinduism. Which is somewhat understandable considering they either 'adopted' Hinduism , or they are today majority non Hindus (Sindhis, Bengalis, Punjabis etc)

You are UPite, not Gujju. I was referring to the tweet about Bengalis and Gujjus not being sem2sem.

UPites, Biharis, Punjabis, these north Indian groups don’t have strong asabiya or nor a strong identity since they are not one ethnic group nor one historical language. They also happen to be in the middle geographically. This is why they think other groups with greater ingroup cohesion are like themselves (sem2sem). Gujjus, Bengalis, Tamils they have greater cohesion and more distinct identities which they will try to emphasize at every turn.

So I don’t see it that way, and hardly ever saw the aforementioned groups mixing that much outside India (firs gen immigrants)

Canada sounds weird. I have seen Bengalis, Punjabis, and Gujaratis all mix in USA. Some Sikhs may separate a bit more than Hindus. But they still mingle.

But yes there is some Aryan Dravidian divide in older generation. In younger, they all mix. Actually Christians do remain insulted a bit too.

Go to any college with big Indian populations. The Indian associations are very mixed. I have friends of pretty much every major every single major immigrant demographic. There is a pan “browness,” much to the chagrin and disappointment of some ethnic chauvanists.
