In India 20,000-30,000 people die everyday....... of natural causes. Each year more people die in rain, thunder storms or heat waves then through “persecution”. More people die in street/gang violence in US then then people dying as a result of persecution in India.
Besides this article is about a Pastor being hospitalized. You have more fighting in American High schools then that. Recently a Sikh kid in NY was intimidated and got his hair shaven by a bunch of Muslim kids.
India is a straight line from Chicago to Miami and everything east. With a population nearly 4 times the USA. On a worldwide scale of religious persecution, India would not make the top 50 in the world.
