Book excerpt: Much of public life in India is characterized by the forces of its religious demography. Each of the essays included here reflect the truism that religion unites as well as divides peoples. Religious demography not only decided the partition of India and Pakistan, but also continues to play a major role in India's democratic politics. A great anxiety about the Hindus being outnumbered has been kept alive in India. The differential growth rates of religious communities have therefore become a sensitive issue. It is an established fact that there is an illicit dramatization of misrepresented statistics of the Census. Newspapers, magazines, television and even caste journals have propounded myths, with catchy titles. Demographers have, however, demonstrated that no major religious community in India has been declining in absolute numbers, except Parsis. This volume attempts to dispel some of the myths propagated by those who seek political power under the religious cover.

Download or read book The Population Myth written by S.Y. Quraishi and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2021-02-15 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Population Myth reveals how the right-wing spin to population data has given rise to myths about the 'Muslim rate of growth', often used to stoke majoritarian fears of a demographic skew. The author, S.Y. Quraishi, uses facts to demolish these, and demonstrates how a planned population is in the interest of all communities. The book delves into the Quran and the Hadith to show how Islam might have been one of the first religions in the world to actually advocate smaller families, which is why several Islamic nations today have population policies in place. This busts the other myth - that Muslims shun family planning on religious grounds. Based on impeccable research, this is an important book from a credible voice about the politicization of demographics in India today.
