No comments on Bengal or Punjab or Delhi or wherever not being Hindu enough or something.
Being from TN, I find it a source of <!--emo&:blink:--><img src='style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/blink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='blink.gif' /><!--endemo--> too that others think TN is 'DMK region'. Nah. It's <b>Hindu</b> land.
I think Hindus in various states often get overlooked (loss of visibility) due to all the in-your-face and vocal communists, crypto christo DMK-types, outright christo rule, islamania and psecularism that regularly steal the spotlight.
