Indian politics is witnessing shameless appeasement of Muslims by various politics parties. A trend started by congress to stay in power and today being used by likes of Nitish Kumar, Lalu Yadav and Mamta Benerjee.
How appeasement works:
=> Give them money
=> Overlook minor crimes
=> Give them reservation
=> Give them soaps (exclusively)
=> Wear their topi and go to mosque for votes

By doing all the above the political parties has tried to ensure that Hindus feel secluded and unattended completely. Their concerns are now being looked at as 'communal'. Anything to do with Hindus is being labeled as communal by minority appeasing political parties.If for construction of road - a small mosque is broken then it would be communal while if temple would be broken it might not even make news.
Then comes TV debating intellectuals - who are always worried about communal riots. They themselves seems to have overlooked the dangers of appeasement rather it might even be considered secular to appease.
The so called appeasement is now shadowed in name of secularism.
The impact of this would slowly come with majority backlash and it would time up for this appeasement and communal politics.
Some parties are purely working on governance like BJD in Orissa or AIADMK-Jaya in Tamil Nadu, though there is slight bend to minorities to justify their secular credentials. They are likely to sustain their existence but the parties focusing only on 'secularism shadow - appeasement to survive' might soon would struggle with their existence.
