Indian Muslims (and Christians) are brethren, being many generations ago, converts for various reasons such as religious propaganda,inducements/threats to life, etc.apart from the desire for trying a different spiritual alternative.They are sons of the soil of Indian culture and thought.It is not surprising if achievers in various fields are found in all religious groups. Individuals' self-discipline and authentic guidance and/or support,apart from hard work, do wonders and result in excellence.The majority/minority and casteist criteria are mostly the work of politicians as they rival among themselves for power, and seek votes with a divisive strategy.
