  Quoted: The BBC's Soutik Biswas examines the plight of Indian Muslims as the country marks 60 years of independence.

  this quite true and i like that the article doesn't hold back criticism of the Indian government's poor attempts to provide equality to its largest minority group. I find it intriguing that Indian Muslims in South India are actually better off in a socio-economic sense, considering South India traditionally is home to more orthodox Hindus. So what's going wrong in North India? Of course if you look at the overall socio-economic backgrounds of some of the states mentioned, Bihar, Gujrat, etc...they have traditionally been on the poorer end.
