I couldn’t tell you the whole history of it, but India is definitely having Hindu vs Muslim issues right now bc of a very pro-Hindu government. So Muslims everywhere but esp in that region are very anti India since it is a Hindu majority nation. So not surprised re your Muslim DHs reaction of this. FWIW it isn’t my sense that all Indian Hindus are soooo against Muslims in daily life - just like all Americans aren’t sooo pro MAGA/Trump but when that’s the government in power people start to assume an entire nation feels a certain way.[/quote]

This. I'm Hindu and I don't know, I feel bothered by all the pomp and show with the Ram Mandir inauguration. Couldn't they have built the temple anywhere else in Ayodhya. It seems like the ruling party wants India to be a Hindu only nation and it has never been that way. SMH.

Not surprised by her DH's reaction given current state of affairs in India. Modi is the Indian version of Trump. MIGA instead of MAGA.[/quote]

OP here. The ironic thing is DH and I live in a majority-Indian community in the US, and we decided to live there because there are so many SE Asians. Indians are good neighbors. DH looks like them, so weirdly, he "fits in". At our kid's birthday party, it was 90 percent Indian American children. The men in the community already have a social circle and speak another language at the bus stop. Dh probably feels like he won't fit in well with them. I am not sure. My husband is very introverted. We have moved around a ton and have only been living in this new community for about a year. It's a small townhouse community. Both of our neighbors attached to us are Indian. There are (2) Bengali families in the neighborhood but DH hasn't connected with them yet. He's kind of shy. I have actually introduced him to Bengali families in other cities we have lived in because I met Bengali women through children activities.
