I was more angry than amused by The Wall Street Journal mentioning Azim Premji as the world’s richest Muslim entrepreneur (‘How a Muslim Billionaire Thrives in Hindu India’ by Yaroslav Trofimov, 11th September, 2007).
What is the need to point out that he is Muslim? Ok, Muslims are a minority in India but does that make India a “Hindu” country? Don’t they realize that by making such references they are in a way fostering “us-versus-them” mindset in impressionable minds?
