Not true at all, and you didn't mention the Indian Caste system, which is barbaric and extremely discrimatory.
Perhaps religious tolerance is more the norm in Bombay, but travel into southern India and religious tolerance vanishes. either Muslims attack Hindu's or Hindu's are attacking Muslims, or Christians, and it happens with regularity.
Dear nathan..
I am from Southern India and i feel i know better. And the city where i am living is the most muslim populated area.. though there are some muslim youth who are trapped for pakistani jihadis there is absolute religious harmony among the religions.. coming to the caste system, there are pros and cons..
don’t tell me that there are no differences among the western christians.. if i am not wrong they too are divided like protestants, Catholics etc., etc.,
