Demography politics misses the big picture

In this picture taken on March 14, 2024, people make their way through a busy market area near the Jama Masjid (mosque) at Rampur in India's Uttar Pradesh state. More than half the voters in India's city of Rampur are Muslim, but its member of parliament is a staunch supporter of Prime Minister Narendra Modi's muscular Hindu-first agenda. While India's 220 million Muslims make up 14 percent of the 1.4 billion population, Muslim representatives in parliament have almost halved to under five percent since the 1970s.
