I am Nepali. I always look through Indian political news.Why is everything in India connects with religion only.In Nepal I have never seen a single religious debate in politics even from well established politician. Whereas I felt like in India to win election you eventually need to choose side of one certain religion or even some particular caste. Why is it such a huge thing ? Do Indians never vote out of this loophole. I have seen huge rally’s of people worshipping them like god cause they talk about saving Hinduism or Islam I mean do Indian politicians really took care of Hindu ideology and people in certain way like they promised or it’s just a dirty politics?
