If Islam - Christianity has problem then so has Hindusim

Yes Hinduism does have problem. It has a problem in positioning itself. Hinduism is construct which was given represent people of this land who were of Non Abrahamic faith. Jainism , Sikhism , Buddhism were fuether classifications done in addition to Hinduism. 
So it thus became a religion in the same class as Islam and Christianity and Judaism. 

But why adhere to this construct which came from the West ( Yes Arabia is to the west of our country) . Sanatan Dharma which has become more prominent in todays time is something which Hindus today try to refer to when talking about Hinduism and its Non religious nature. If all the talks of religion and devotion can be assimilated together. then best way to look at thia will be in form of the pyramid with Sanata Dharm on top of it.

If there is any issue in Hindu society e.g. caste discrimantion there are n number of liberals or individuals who will go to all extent (even ignoring the facts or not applying juresprudence) to support the victim. Do we have an equivalent in the Islamic society. Zilch ? Even triple talaq was movement mostly championed by Right Wing Hindus. Is there any moderate face in Islam who is willing to campaign against Madrassa ayatem. Zilch. We can also take case of Nupur Sharma. If we accept that she apologies for whatever she said (or whatever tone she said), then why she needs to move with 24 hrs security. The moderates in Islam may say that she need not move with security and its her or states choice to provide her the secruity. If indeed there are such voices then what is the gaurantee that she will be able to raom freely when mere people who shared her post were killed mercilessly .
