You chose to migrate to West/US due to "lack of opportunities in India" or to realize American dreams - This decision of yours was NOT dictated by India's national interests but your personal interests & we common Indians did NOT play any role.

Muslim diaspora speak for Muslim community, highlight "islamophobia" & support Kashmir/Palestinian cause,
Sikh community speak for Sikh community & supports Khalistani cause,
Instead of highlighting the atrocities Hindus suffered during Islamic/British rule - You say Islamic rulers brought Biryani & built Taj Mahal & British brought Democracy to India.
But you NEVER criticize anti-idol verses of Quran.
