        No, it's unfair to India's other communities.

          "Should India have a Hindu Law of Return?"

          No.

          Unlike Israel, India was not founded as a homeland for Hindus. There should be mechanisms by which any persecuted people can apply for asylum in India, whether they are persecuted Hindus or anything else.

            I also say no. They shouldn't run away from their problems. The world needs to learn to embrace Hindus, and it can't do that if they all isolate themselves. So go out in the world and be the best Hindus you can be!

                    India has as much justification for enacting such a law as Israel did but I think it's a lousy idea in both cases.

                    Instead it should be handled under general asylum laws.

                      It isn't, it's predominantly Buddhist.

                      OP is wrong, though, about India being the only culturally Hindu country - Nepal is actually officially a Hindu country (at least, until the interim government enacts their new, under-development secular constitution), and has a higher Hindu population as a % of the total.

                            Has India ever turned away Hindus seeking asylum from persecution in Pakistan or other countries?

                            In the 1970s Indians in a number of African countries faced severe persecution. Many of them immigrated to the UK and USA, but were they turned away from India?

                              No. India has a secular government, not a religious one. So you should keep it that way.

                              Nepal is mostly Buddhist, IIRC.
