Inherently? Nothing... but if I cite a far-left source to support something I'm arguing you will, justifiably, scoff at it. Heavily partisan sources are rarely reputable by themselves.

I simply have a hard time believing a 90% Hindu state in an India run by a Hindu nationalist government intends to do such a thing. Your lack of reputable sources certainly doesn't shake that belief.

There is no point of a discussion if you dismiss everything I present without countering it with your sources.

You haven’t offered one single citation of any feather..never mind wing. Except your ‘belief’ which doesn’t have much worth except to you.

Your beliefs have nothing to do with facts.

FACT: India is not a ‘90% Hindu state’.

FACT: India is not run by a ‘Hindu nationalist government’.

(Define ‘nationalist’)

That's correct; I cannot prove a negative. You're making assertions that something is happening; you should support them. Your evidence for your positive assertions has been drastically lacking.

> FACT: India is not a ‘90% Hindu state’.

The state in question, as you felt was important to note ("Modi’s BJP govt is central govt. This is happening in Tamil Nadu."), is Tamil Nadu; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_Nadu#Religion_and_ethnic... cites it as 87.6% Hindu in 2011.

> FACT: India is not run by a ‘Hindu nationalist government’.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bharatiya_Janata_Party is widely enough considered Hindu nationalist as to get "Its policies adhere to Hindutva, a Hindu nationalist ideology" in the Wikipedia article on it.
