Will India accept a Muslim Prime-Minister?

[Mugwop]

Well India has a higher chance of accepting a Muslim PM than Pakistan accepting a non Muslim PM. So I voted Yes, it is quite possible. The Indians I've met irl are more tolerant and open minded than the vast majority of Indian posters on this forum though, maybe it is something about this forum but it seems to attract the reactionary right wingers of all countries.

They show their true colors on this forum bro

Currently it seems unlikely.

 

[Stephen Cohen]

Some people like the Hindu right wingers will have doubts about a Muslim PM's approach. But our institutions are such that a PM can't do a thing without taking the responsibility as he/she is accountable to the Parliament of India which in turn is accountable to the people of India. Such is the beauty of our democracy.

Are you aware of the damage done by A K Antony to Indian Armed forces
single handedly

And what about Man Mohan Singh's Appeasement of pakistan

If a whole PIA plane which was filled with muslims was stopped for a hindu than there's a chance of Pakistani hindus becoming a PM in Pakistan if they want, But a muslim pm in india

If a Nation of Hindu Majority elects and respects a Muslim President then there's a chance of Hindustani Muslim becoming a PM in India if they want, But a Hindu pm in Pakistan

What is there to show true color? We openly say we don't love Pakistan.

No, in Pakistan you should be asking if a Hindu will ever become army chief.

There is NOT even ONE Hindu soldier in Pakistan Army

We have had Muslims Cricket Captains, Muslim SuperStars, Billionaire Muslim Industrialists, Muslim idealogues, Muslim Generals but sadly muslims remain either unrepresented or confined to their pocket burrows when it comes to Politics. Currently we see a token presence in National Politics.

Why do you think this is the case?

India prides itself on it's secular democratic leader - So is it unreasonable to assume that 20% of population cannot produce a head of state of sufficient calibre while they excel at other spheres? Or is India and by extension it's majority politicians have an innate mistrust of Muslims when it comes to running the nation.

Do you think will a major party like BJP or Congress will ever nominate or elect a Muslim PM candidates? Do you think it is an idea whose time has come? I am not saying select some incompetent but atleast process should be started, non communal leaders should be cultivated so that one day take occupy the highest political office of our country. We have had enough of Azams and Owaisis who not only exploit but misrepresent their community.

Such a leader would be beyond symbolic and perhaps will manage to do what Obama failed to - Heal the rifts b/w our communities.

In this context

- Do you have some up and coming leader who in mind?
- Will people vote for him to be PM rejecting their communal biases and solely on his merits?

I have voted for the yes option for the simple reason.

I can foresee Muslims in India won't be in minority after few more decades.

The day Pakistan can have Hindu CM ..India can have Muslim PM...

I am sure neither of them did what they did because of their religion. Antony was always more concerned about keeping his image intact in the cesspool of congress politics so basically froze everything after the corruption came to light in defence procurements.

Man Mohan Singh - We dont give enough credit to him - The Man fought! He might have been an accidental PM and an ineffective one in UPA-2 but he single handedly got Nuclear Deal pushed through which by the way BJP opposed for all their recent bohomony with US.

I would gladly vote for a liberal Muslim as PM. But totally not for someone like Ouassi

Man Mohan SIngh gets FULL credit for Nuclear Deal

It is the APPEASEMENT of Pakistan in his Second Term
that this country will ALWAYS REMEMBER

The Sharm al Shaikh fiasco in 2009 where he just condoned Mumbai terror attacks
It was a SELL OUT

Inviting a PLANE load of Pakistanis for World Cup in 2011

He tied the hands of Indian Army on LOC which emboldened Pakistan Army
to conduct cross border raids

He could not even say strong words against Pakistani transgressions

And then Serving Biryani to Pakistani PM just two months after an Indian
soldier was beheaded

All this because he wanted to visit his birth place

Dont worry ; We will get a NEW constitution

 

[Grevion]

Any qualified person can become the PM of India. Doesn't matter if he/she is a Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christian, Buddhist, Zionist or a Atheist. Period.

You mean Owaisi.
