With increasing Muslim % in the EU, the jihadi types are getting bolder as can be seen by their blatant support for Hitler, and attacks on random Jews in Europe. I am sure in time, the same will be true in India in places like Kerala, Assam, and WB. The short term solution is to resettle those areas with willing Hindus who are poor from states which have a reasonably high % of Hindus (eg: Orissa) or risk a full blown secession movement in time.
And there are many exceptions to the poverty leads population explosion theory, i remember reading a paper which said that remarkably 18th cent France experienced a drastic tfr decline down to 4 (which is high by todays standards but remarkably low for back then), yet places like afghanistan, and palestine today which have far higher standards of living have tfr's in the range of 5, and 6.
In Kerala, the Muslims are better off than Hindus economically and have almost the same literacy, yet while the Hindus and Xtians are below replacement, the Muslims are still above replacement.
