I really wonder if this article shouldn't be merged with Hinduism. Almost everything one can say about Hinduism in general applies to Hinduism in India in particular. Either that, or perhaps we should limit the scope of this article to the legal/cultural position of Hinduism within the political frontiers of India since 1947. Otherwise there's just going to be nothing but reduplication. QuartierLatin1968 19:52, 24 February 2006 (UTC)

I think it should focus on what's been going since after the formation of the republic.--Dangerous-Boy 07:23, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Rewrite

Someone has to rewrite this article. People should use the discussion page for discussions. They are doing it in the main page.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by DIGIwarez (talk • contribs).

I agree with the anonymous inserts to a high degree but it should not be done in such a fashion. It undermines the aspect of neutrality in wikipedian articles.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.152.160.180 (talk • contribs).

I think someone has to sign with their username.--D-Boy 07:37, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Expand

Expand this article with regard to the various traditions of the states of India. ^Babub→Talk 15:03, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Section: Census of 2001

According to me, this edit (specially reference to Crypto-Christians) doesn't adhere to WP:NPOV. The editor had added similar stuff to Christianity in India, but was reverted. Also the data presented in the tables do not tally with the official India census records. We can't even access data from the mentioned World Christian Encyclopedia (2001) by David B. Barrett, et al. as its not in public domain. I want to know what others think on this issue.--Victor 07:00, 29 December 2006 (UTC)

I'm removing the data on what Christian groups estimate India's Hindu populations to be by the stats. They are not credible. Many Hindus report themselves as Muslims and Christians to get benefits as well.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Amitroy5 (talk • contribs) 02:05, 8 February 2007 (UTC).
