Removed? What was done to Hindus and Sikhs in Mirpur in 1947? By the Pak Army. Men Massacred. The women raped and sold to brothels. And before something like this was done in 1989/90, you expected India to just standby and watch?

There are many Muslim majority towns all over India. Malerkotla and Wai come to mind. India isn't China that it can just tell people to move to a place and they will move. Internal migration in India happens with economic drivers - like industry, education, retail etc.
