Detailed explanation-1: -Still, Indian Muslims are projected to remain a minority in their country, making up about 18% of the total population at midcentury, while Hindus figure to remain a majority (about 77%). India is a religiously pluralistic and multiethnic democracy – the largest in the world.
Detailed explanation-2: -India contains 94% of the global Hindu population. The Indian subcontinent is the birthplace of four of the world’s major religions: namely Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Sikhism-collectively known as Indian religions that believe Moksha is the most supreme state of the Ātman (soul).
Detailed explanation-3: -While there is no shortage of historical scholars, sages, and teachers in Hinduism, there is no historical founder of the religion as a whole, no figure comparable to Jesus, the Buddha, Abraham, or Muhammad. As a consequence, there is no firm date of origin for Hinduism, either.
