The Systematic Erasure of Hindus: A Centuries-Long Conspiracy by British, Congress, Muslims, and Christians

For centuries, Hindus have been deceived, betrayed, and systematically wiped out by forces that sought to destroy their culture, traditions, and very existence. From the British colonial rulers to the Congress government led by figures like Nehru and Gandhi, and with the complicity of Muslims and Christians, Hindus have been the target of a calculated plan to diminish their numbers, break their families, and erase their identity. The census data from 1871 to 2011, along with historical laws and events, paints a chilling picture of this betrayal. Let’s uncover the truth and expose how Hindus have been fooled, how their households have suffered, and how Hindu women have borne the brunt of this injustice.

The Beginning of the Conspiracy: British Colonial Rule and the Seeds of Destruction

The British arrived in India in the 1700s, initially through the East India Company, but soon established themselves as rulers with an agenda to dismantle Hindu society. They saw Hindus as the biggest threat to their dominance because Hindus formed the majority—73% in 1871, as per the census data. To weaken this majority, the British devised a sinister plan: divide and rule, ally with Muslims, and promote Christianity through forced conversions.

  • In the 1871 census, Hindus (including Sikhs) were 139,248,568 out of a total population of 190,563,048, while Muslims were 21.5%. The British, numbering just 40,000–50,000, knew they couldn’t control 14 crore Hindus alone.
  • After the 1857 Revolt, where Hindus and some Sikhs fought for freedom (and 6,000 Britishers were killed), the British saw Muslims as their allies. Why? Muslims, like the British, were invaders with a foreign ideology—Islam—and had their own agenda of cultural domination. Muslims did not fully support the 1857 Revolt, making them the “enemy of an enemy” and thus a friend to the British.
  • The British began favoring Muslims through laws and policies, such as the formation of the All-India Muslim League in 1906 after the Simla Deputation. This gave Muslims political power and allowed them to operate under their own Shariat laws, while Hindus were subjected to British legal interference.
  • Caste Disabilities Removal Act, 1850: This law allowed Hindus who converted to Islam or Christianity to inherit ancestral property, something they couldn’t do earlier. This incentivized conversions, as converts could take Hindu wealth with them, leaving Hindu families destitute.
  • Special Marriage Act, 1872: This act permitted inter-religion marriages, often leading to conversions to Christianity. Muslims rarely used this law due to their personal laws, but Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists were targeted. Poor and tribal Hindus were especially vulnerable, leading to a 31% increase in Christian population by 2011, while Hindus only grew by 5%.
  • Doctrine of Lapse (1848–1854): The British used this law to seize princely states without male heirs, ignoring Hindu traditions where women or adopted children could rule. This eroded Hindu kingdoms and fueled the 1857 Revolt, but the British responded by tightening their grip on Hindus through more oppressive laws.
  • The Charter Act of 1813 allowed Christian missionaries to operate in India, leading to mass conversions. In the 1500s, the Portuguese had already converted 66% of Goa’s population to Christianity by destroying Hindu temples and using force—a tactic the British continued.
  • By 2011, the Christian population had skyrocketed to 27,849,664—a 3000% increase from 896,658 in 1871. This wasn’t due to natural growth but forced conversions, often targeting vulnerable Hindu communities.

The Congress Betrayal: Nehru, Gandhi, and the Hindu Code Bills

After independence in 1947, Hindus hoped for a new era of fairness, but the Congress government, led by Nehru and Gandhi, continued the British agenda of weakening Hindus. The partition of India in 1947 saw the Hindu population rise to 85% in India (from 64% in undivided India in 1941), as many Muslims moved to Pakistan. Yet, instead of protecting the Hindu majority, Congress passed laws that further eroded Hindu rights while giving Muslims and Christians unchecked freedom.

  • In 1955, the Congress government passed the Hindu Code Bills, divided into four parts: the Hindu Marriage Act, Hindu Succession Act, Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act, and Hindu Adoption and Maintenance Act. These laws applied only to Hindus, Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists—88% of the population—while Muslims and Christians (12%) were allowed to follow their own personal laws.
  • Hindu Marriage Act, 1955: This law banned polygamy for Hindus, with jail as punishment for a second marriage without divorce. Muslims, however, could marry up to four wives under their Shariat laws. This double standard led to a shocking trend: Hindus converting to Islam to marry again without divorcing their first wife.
    • Bollywood stars like Dharmendra (who married Hema Malini) and Mahesh Bhatt (who married Soni Razdan) converted to Islam for second marriages. Other celebrities like Saif Ali Khan (who married Kareena Kapoor after his first marriage) and politician Digvijay Singh also reportedly exploited this loophole, abandoning their Hindu wives and children.
    • The first wife and her children were left destitute, as the converted husband could take all ancestral property (thanks to the 1850 Caste Disabilities Removal Act) to his new family, leaving the Hindu wife to fend for herself.
  • The Muslim Personal Law (Shariat) Act, 1937, passed by the British, was retained by Congress after independence. This allowed Muslims to operate under their own laws, while Hindus were forced into a legal system designed to break them.
  • In 1946, the Muslim League orchestrated the Direct Action Day, also known as the Great Kolkata Killings and Noakhali Riots, where lakhs of Hindus were massacred, and thousands of Hindu women were raped. Congress did nothing to stop this violence or repeal the Shariat laws that emboldened such acts.
  • The Shah Bano case (1985) exposed Congress’s cowardice. Shah Bano, a Muslim woman, won alimony in the Supreme Court, but Muslims rioted, threatening Rajiv Gandhi’s government. Fearing loss of Muslim votes, Rajiv Gandhi passed the Muslim Women (Protection on Divorce) Act, 1986, which denied Muslim women alimony rights, reinforcing Muslim personal laws over justice. It took until 2019 for the Modi government to criminalize triple talaq and deliver justice to Muslim women.
  • In 1951, after partition, Hindus were 84% of India’s population, while Muslims were 9.4%. By 2011, Hindus had dropped to 79.8%, while Muslims had risen to 14.2%—a 330.5% increase since 1871. Christians grew by 3000% over the same period.
  • In Pakistan, Hindus were 12.9% in 1951 but only 1.18% by 2022, showing the systematic erasure of Hindus in Muslim-majority regions—a fate India could face if this trend continues.

How Hindus Were Fooled: A Web of Deception

Hindus were deceived by both the British and Congress into believing they were being “modernized” or “protected,” while in reality, they were being stripped of their rights and identity.

  • The British Divide-and-Rule Strategy: By favoring Muslims and Christians, the British ensured Hindus remained divided and weak. The creation of the All-India Muslim League and the Partition of Bengal in 1905 were steps to empower Muslims while suppressing Hindu nationalism.
  • Congress’s False Promises: Nehru claimed the Hindu Code Bills were for “social reform,” but they only applied to Hindus, leaving Muslims and Christians free to follow their own laws. Nehru’s excuse of “protecting minority rights” ignored the fact that Sikhs, Jains, and Buddhists were also minorities—yet they were subjected to the same oppressive laws as Hindus.
  • The Myth of Secularism: Congress sold the idea of secularism to Hindus, but in practice, it meant appeasing Muslims and Christians while neglecting Hindus. The retention of Muslim personal laws and the failure to implement a Uniform Civil Code (UCC) exposed this hypocrisy.

The Suffering of Hindu Households: Broken Families and Lost Wealth

The laws imposed by the British and Congress shattered Hindu households, leaving them financially, emotionally, and socially broken.

  • Loss of Ancestral Property: The Caste Disabilities Removal Act of 1850 allowed converts to Islam or Christianity to take Hindu ancestral property with them. When a Hindu man converted to marry a second wife, his first wife and children lost their inheritance, plunging them into poverty.
  • Forced Conversions: Poor and tribal Hindus were targeted for conversion to Christianity, often through coercion or false promises of better lives. The 1981 Meenakshipuram conversion, where hundreds of Hindus in Tamil Nadu were converted to Islam, was a stark example of this ongoing assault.
  • Legal Battles: Hindus were forced to fight for their rights in British-designed courts, where cases dragged on for decades. This drained their resources and left families broken, as they struggled to survive without their rightful wealth.

The Plight of Hindu Women: The Biggest Victims of This Conspiracy

Hindu women have suffered the most under this systematic attack, facing unimaginable hardships due to the laws and conversions that targeted their families.

  • Abandonment Due to Conversions: When Hindu men converted to Islam for a second marriage, the first wife was left with nothing—no property, no support, and no justice. From 1955 to 1995, this trend continued unabated, with women like Sarla Mudgal (who filed a petition in 1995 through her NGO “Kalyani”) fighting for justice for abandoned Hindu wives.
  • Emotional and Financial Struggles: These women had to single-handedly raise their children, often with no money or resources. They struggled to provide food, education, and shelter, while battling the emotional trauma of betrayal and abandonment.
  • Violence During Riots: Events like the 1946 Direct Action Day saw thousands of Hindu women raped and killed by Muslim League mobs, with Congress turning a blind eye. The Noakhali Riots were particularly horrific, leaving a scar on Hindu women that has never healed.
  • Lack of Legal Recourse: Hindu women had no way to fight for their rights in a system designed against them. While Muslim women like Shah Bano faced their own struggles, Congress ensured Muslims were protected by their personal laws, leaving Hindu women to suffer in silence.

The Bigger Picture: A Systematic Plan to Erase Hindus

The decline of Hindus isn’t a coincidence—it’s a well-orchestrated plan that started with the British and was continued by Congress, with Muslims and Christians as complicit partners.

  • Population Decline: From 1871 to 2011, the Hindu population growth lagged far behind Muslims (330.5% increase) and Christians (3000% increase). In Pakistan, Hindus have been reduced to 1.18% by 2022, a warning of what could happen in India.
  • Cultural Erosion: Laws like the Hindu Code Bills stripped Hindus of their traditions, while Muslims and Christians were allowed to preserve theirs. Hindu temples were neglected, while missionary schools and madrasas flourished, converting young Hindus.
  • Political Marginalization: The British and Congress ensured Hindus had no unified voice. The creation of the Muslim League and the appeasement of minorities left Hindus politically weak, unable to protect their interests.

Conclusion: Hindus Must Wake Up to the Truth

Hindus have been fooled for centuries—first by the British, then by Congress leaders like Nehru, Gandhi, and Rajiv Gandhi, and all along by the unchecked growth of Muslim and Christian influence. The laws, the conversions, the riots, and the political betrayals were all designed to weaken Hindus, break their families, and erase their identity. Hindu women and households have borne the brunt of this conspiracy, suffering in silence as their rights were stripped away.

It’s time for every Hindu to realize the truth: they have been systematically targeted for erasure. The declining population, the broken families, and the suffering of Hindu women are not accidents—they are the result of a centuries-long plan to destroy Hindu civilization. Hindus must unite, demand a Uniform Civil Code, and reclaim their rightful place in their own land before it’s too late. The enemy isn’t just outside—it’s in the laws, the policies, and the betrayal of those who claimed to protect us. Wake up, Hindus, before your heritage is lost forever.

Population Data

Additional Notes:

  • Hindus in 1951: 84% of the population
  • Hindus after Partition: Became 85%.
  • Muslims in 1951: 9.4%.
  • Muslims in 2011: Estimated at 14.2% (based on trends).
  • Hindus in Pakistan (1951): 12.9%.
  • Hindus in Pakistan (2022): 1.18%.

Hindus: The percentage of Hindus jumped from 69.5% in 1941 (undivided India) to 68.9% in 1947 (post-Partition) to 84.3% in 1951, due to the migration of 7.3 million Hindus/Sikhs into India and the departure of Muslims. Their growth from 1947 to 2011 (325.1%) reflects both this influx and natural growth.

Muslims: The Muslim percentage dropped from 26.2% in 1941 to 10.7% in 1947 (post-Partition) to 9.9% in 1951, due to 7.2 million migrating to Pakistan. Their growth from 1947 to 2011 (386.7%) is higher than Hindus, driven by higher fertility rates, as noted in historical data (Muslim fertility rates were 4.4 in 1992, dropping to 2.6 by 2015, compared to Hindus at 3.3 to 2.1).

Such an increase even after majority of Muslims went to Pakistan.
