Abstract :
The history of Hindu-Muslim conflicts in India is not new; it has its roots in middle ages when
Muslims took charge of sub-continent. At the end of British regime, Hindu-Muslim hostility
reached its peak which resulted in violent partition of sub-continent in 1947. Because of ever
mounting hostility and hatred of Hindus, Muslims minority in India has been the victim of
systematic and pre-planned violence. The present study aims to explore physical and
psychological violence faced by Muslims in contemporary India
