You see India is not as tolerant about religious minorities as it used to be when I was a little kid. As a teen it was very common to see lots of police outside Church at the Christmas Midnight mass this was done as a two fold reason, on the one hand it was to protect Catholics from attacks from the religious majority. It was also done to intimidate Catholics and make us feel like outsiders in our own country.
