In a 35-minute interview to Karan Thapar for The Wire, Swapan Dasgupta, who is also a well-known columnist, admitted there is no doubt that a substantial faultline exists between hindus and muslims adding that this enmity cannot be permitted to continue. He emphasized there is now a need for muslims to reciprocate the Prime Minister’s gesture, pointing out that similar earlier gestures by Mohan Bhagwat, the Sarsanghchalak of the RSS, have not been reciprocated.



Swapan Dasgupta is so far the first and only senior BJP leader and intellectual to willingly address this issue of reaching out to muslims and the connected question why should they respond given the way they have been treated, spoken of and often ‘othered’ or even treated as enemies. I encourage you to see this interview.



In the interview, Swapan Dasgupta is first asked if this is a response to the widespread criticism India has faced, diplomatically and in the social media, in Arab countries after Nupur Sharma’s recent blasphemous comments about the Prophet? Is it a way of reassuring critics in the Middle East but also in Europe and America that India treats its muslim citizens well and without discrimination?
