The following are some excerpts of the 'peace literature' concerning India and 'Hindus' produced in Canada. Imagine if anything of this kind concerning Canada were to be produced in India!
But then hate-mongering, bigoted 'Hindus' have hardly any capacity to produce 'peace literature' the way the enlightened 'West' has!
----
BRITISH occupied India from the hands of Muslims.
Although Indian public including Hindus resisted British power in the beginning, a special interest group of high class Hindu with the support of British Raj emerged. They made Muslims’ social and religious life miserable. The attack on Islam, its culture, practices and its respected personalities from Western orientalists and new Hindu revivalists became rampant.
On one hand, British writers wrote several books and novels to disgrace Islam and Prophet Muhammad, on the other hand, they supported Hindu revival movements, organizations, and personalities to do the same task.
One of such organizations was Arya Samaj. Swami Dayanand Sarswati (b. 1824, d. 1883, real name Mul Shankar), a native of Gujrat, founded the organization in Bombay. He authored and published a book Satyarth Prakash in which he disgraced Prophet Muhammad with his derogatory and humiliating remarks.
He supported aggressive and violent approach to impose Hinduism in India. His slogan was “Hindustan (India) for Hindus (only)”.
He started a movement to ban cows from slaughter as Hindus believe cow is like their mother goddess. His hate speeches and slogans against Islam and Muslims ignited communal tension and riots all over India.
After Sarswati’s death, his hate movement was carried out by the leaders like Lala Hansraj (b.1864, d.1938), Pandit Gurudatt Vidhyarthi (1864-1890), Lala Lajpat Rai (1865-1928), and Swami Shardhanand (1856-1926). This movement led to communal riots between Hindus and Muslims in India where people of all faiths had been living peacefully for centuries.

This movement led to communal riots between Hindus and Muslims in India where people of all faiths had been living peacefully for centuries.
In fact, Arya Samaji movement is the founder of religious aggression and terrorism in India. After Utter Pardesh (UP), Swami’s supporters got major root in Punjab. His followers’ numbers had reached more than one hundred thousand.

The teachings of these hate monger religious leaders created an environment where Muslims couldn’t leave peacefully. These teachings were reflected in the literatures produced by Hindu authors. For example, in a famous novel Anand Nath, the author Bankim Chandra Chatterjee (1838–1894) encourages children of Kaali Maata (brave goddess mother) to clean “unclean” Muslims.
******
Another important hate personality was Bal Ganga Dhar Tilak (b. 1856, d 1920), born in Brahmin family. He was basically a political leader but all his politics was for religious aggressiveness against Islam and Muslims.
He claimed himself as a torch bearer of Bhagwat Geeta (a Hindu religious book) and Shivajee (a Hindu Maratha leader, b.1630, d.1680). According to him, the teachings of Shiwa and Bhagwat Geeta are to end your enemy as you can use any tactics and ploy.
According to him, Shivajee did an excellent job by killing a Muslim General Afzal Khan (d. 1659) by deceiving him in a meeting for peace.
*****
Ghazi Abdur Rasheed Shaheed had been continuously thinking of how to settle a score with Swami Shardhanand. On December 23, 1926, Abdur Rasheed went straight to his residence and, using his pistol, he silenced Shardhanand for forever.

Muslims can tolerate anything, any kind of oppression on them on their family, on their children, deprivation of all the amenities of life, and this world. And they are tolerating everywhere.
Their nations have been bombed, destroyed, occupied, and tens of millions were forced to leave their homes worldwide. But they never overreacted. But whenever someone insults Prophet Muhammad (peace be upon him, the most beloved person of Muslims), they always reacted, they get revenge, and they will be ready for getting even.
They can’t control their sentiments. The word “tolerance” doesn’t apply here. Enough will be enough. It has been proven in history again and again. Whenever someone dishonored and insulted Prophet Muhammad, Muslims always first tried to convince them not to do that.
But if they didn’t abstain and ignored the collective demand of Muslims, some young blood came forward and scored. In the non-Muslim world, the courts convicted and hanged them, but in the eyes of Muslims, they were always veterans and martyrs.
