[edit] Hindu nationalism

I find the objection to 'Hindu nationalism' a bit odd. Baka seems to misinterprep the usage of the term. It does not imply that Hindus worldwide constitute one nation, its a term used for political groups that promote the idea of India (or Nepal) as Hindu Rashtra. The term is used as a substitute to Hindutva, and I thought to could serve as a more compromising wording.

I don't really see how it could be seriously questioned that HMK belongs to the Hindu nationalist fold (plenty of newsarticles are around that clarfiy the communal character of the party). To use the term 'Hindu political party' is incorrect as Hinduism is a religion, and not a political movement. --Soman 20:51, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
