hi guys I just joined here I am from India and it is very hard to be Atheist in today's India. Here Hindus are trying to dominate the country with their religious beliefs and theist thoughts. Hindus are very aggressive about their religion and gods and the worse thing is that they started mob lynching they have already banned beef here, cause cow is holy for them well the good thing is that we also have support from Buddhist and Jain atheists . The conditions for atheists in India is not good the laws are on our side but the authorities are not implementing them properly and that's why I am not using my real identity.
