Peoples Telangana

Let us examine the latest demographic data from the National Family Health Survey (NFHS-5) and official Census records. The data suggests that while there are religious differentials in fertility and migration, the narrative of a "takeover" is not supported by statistical projections. The "Population Explosion" Claim While it is true that the Muslim population in India has grown faster than the Hindu population since independence, the gap is rapidly closing. Converging Fertility Rates: The Total Fertility Rate (TFR) for all Indian communities is declining. In 1992, the gap between Hindu (3.3) and Muslim (4.4) fertility was 1.1 children . By 2021, this gap shrank to just 0.5 children (1.9 for Hindus vs. 2.4 for Muslims). Faster Decline: Muslim fertility is actually declining faster than Hindu fertility. Statistical models from the Pew Research Center suggest that even with current growth rates, Muslims would remain a small minority (around 18%) of India's po...

The condition of the Telangana Muslim is exemplified by these charts. It only proves that even five centuries of Muslim rule has not done much for Muslims as a whole.  That is because the Muslim upper class has traditionally been foreign and the Deccan converts were mostly from the Hindu lower castes escaping Hindu upper caste oppression. The distribution of complexions tells the story quite vividly.  The plight of the Telangana Muslim probably means that Muslim dominated feudalism was more rapacious? The lower layers still predominate.  The difference between the old Asaf Jahi and the present day system is that more Hindus have moved to the upper layers.  During Osman Ali Khan’s period out of the 1411 civil servants as many as 1100 were Muslims. That order has been reversed now. The undeniable fact is that Muslim feudalism was just as rapacious as Hindu majority rule.
