Will India's Muslims Ever Outnumber Hindus? | Fact vs Fiction with SY Quraishi & Barkha Dutt

In a powerful discussion, a leading researcher dismantles the myth that Muslims will overtake Hindus in India demographically.

Higher literacy and income levels are key factors in reducing family size. The expert emphasizes that Islam is not against family planning and highlights that Muslim population growth is declining rapidly—making any claim of demographic takeover statistically impossible.
