Clear Light of day- Muslim vs Hindu

Within the book Clear Light of Day within the society of Muslims and Hindu's, to Raja Muslims were seen as more superior than Hindu's in terms of educational level/opportunity and their ways of living, his concept is based upon him observing the Hyder Ali's who are clearly muslims in comparison to his hindu household. Throughout the book it is seen that muslims embrace their culture and religion to a higher extent than hindus yet in india they were not safe and it was even more unsafe to be a helper/ lover of muslims. Within the book the hindu's always seem to have a hidden agenda concerning the affliction of the muslims and they would often put them into action.
In the murder of Mahatma Ghandi it would have been even more significant if a muslim murdered him since he was a religious icon for the hindu's.
