No matter no one Respects us, we should be the one upholding Dharma and here we are cant even make a noise.
Oh everyone will respect us once we start throwing our weight around.
Assertive statements every now and then is the best way to do it.
Like the skinny asshole kid only bullies the tall fat kid until the fatty had enough of this bs and gives him a good backhand chamat.
Then again where am i some educated IAS officer with 30 years experienece?
Azeris and Turks have a very modern culture. As per surveys 89% of Turkish women and 95% of Azeri women in age group 20-35 don't even cover their heads (let alone wear burka, niqab) even though both countries are 99% muslim.
Azeris are modern today because of decades of USSR rule, where Islam was thoroughly defanged by the Soviet state, They also did this in Soviet Central Asia, where Muslim women used to wear pic related Burqas
Turks are mostly modern today because again decades of Kemalist policies instituted by Kemal Mustafa/Ataturk himself, and after he died, these policies were enforced by Military coups.
As a result most modern Turks don't follow moral teachings of Islam except in the arid and mountainous areas of Central Turkey, which is also the main power base of Erdogan's AKP party.
