Rising Christianity in Indian Hindu Community Italy - India is a country of multi cultured traditions. Besides linguistic composition , it has many religious affiliation with three thousand years old Hindu culture. As a current estimates these are as : Hindu < 70%, Muslims 14% with Suuni’s as 10.4%, Chistians as 8% with 1.55% as Catholics and 4.5% as traditional conversant beliefs, Sikhs as 2.9% and others important sect of extended beliefs. It has a 71% rural populations with 49% women population. Most of people in this country lacks proper food and medical facilities,even though the administration divides the Hindu’s into four categories, GC.OBCs,SC and ST for devlopments. The situation is still a question of bread and butter. Mostly ruling parties had been failed to address the issues properly and these has been miss utilized for generating favored votes. Governments have failed to give sustain basics to the rural and poor dweller of cities. In India Christianity is considered as a foreign religion and it is considered as to undermine India's Hindu-Muslim cultures. There are certain concepts in Christianity I am proud of : charity for others, the equality of system in many western countries, Christ’s message of love and compassion… . Earlier Christianity in then region spread as a result of the British religious policy in the area. At present almost all of the hill population is Christian. The Bible is available in all dialects. The priests are mostly from South India. The churches are spread throughout the hills in villages. Most of these churches have schools attached to them. Tribal peoples constitute 8.2% of the nation's total population. Most of the north-Eatern states are full of tribals. Ethnic and tribal groups believed to be the aboriginal population of India. They comprise a substantial indigenous minority of the population of India. These are particularly present in the Indian states of Orissa, Madhya Pradesh, Chattisgarh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, Maharashtra, Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Jharkhand, West Bengal, Mizoram and other northeastern states, and the Andaman and Nicobar Islands. Officially recognized by the Indian government as "Scheduled Tribes" in the Fifth Schedule of the Constitution of India, they are often grouped together with scheduled castes in the category "Scheduled Castes and Tribes", which is eligible for certain affirmative action measures. The concept of 'original inhabitant' is directly related to the initial peopling of India, which, due to the debate on topics such as the Indo-Aryan migration hypothesis, has been a contentious area of research and discourse. Some anthropologists hypothesize that the region was settled by multiple human migrations over tens of millennia, which makes it even harder to select certain groups as being truly aboriginal. Although considered uncivilized and primitive, these tribal were usually not held to be intrinsically impure. Once these tribal were independent people , having their own rulers. This relative autonomy and collective ownership of tribal land by tribals was severely disrupted by the advent of the Mughals and subsequently the British, both of which consolidated feudalism in India, first under the jagirdari system and then under the zamindari system. The tribal Christians celebrate Christmas with full enthusiasm. The tribals are very fond of Indian and Western music. They have accepted English as a medium of dealing but they write in their own dialect. Most of the converted Christian do not adopt the Christian names. They feel that the use of their dialect is a cultural requirement. On other hand lack of organized approach, lack of funding and enthuse, broad mindness, continuous Hindu based political issues have suppressed the major Hindus. The Christianity adaptation in educated or established Hindu families is believed to attach with political, financial and social gains. With time the oppose to “Hindu to Christianity” conversion is decreasing compared to ‘Muslim to Christianity’ conversion. The Christian missionary activities are very strong and it has been reflected in present life of Indians. It is nice to see how much Christianity is taking over India .Today there are five Christian chief ministers in five Indian states, Nagaland, Mizoram, Meghalaya, Kerala and Andhra Pradesh. It is going to be increased in upcoming future.
