Union Home Minister Amit Shah said in Delhi that the Muslim population in India has increased because of “infiltration from Pakistan and Bangladesh.” Speaking at an event, he added that voting rights in the country “should only be available to citizens.” Shah claimed, “The Muslim population has increased by 24.6%, whereas the Hindu population has decreased by 4.5%. It hasn't happened because of fertility rate, it has happened because of infiltration.” He further said that Hindus who decreased in Pakistan and Bangladesh came to India as refugees, while “many Muslims infiltrated into the country.” (PC: HT)
