Germany's interior minister - and remember that youth and sexual minorities are happily voting right-wing in Continental Europe - recently proposed that the government imposes the concept of Leitkultur on the people of Germany, which would force the migrants to assimilate into local culture.
The idea is that since a lot of Muslims have historically failed at integration (and in Asia, Muslims are often self-identified as separate ethnicities), these people need to be forced to integrate or otherwise the continent will keep seeing serious problems from them (social conservatism, anti-social behavior, poor socioeconomic demographics, etc...).

The French have a tradition of secularism called Laicite, which means that people should be forced to separate their religious views from their daily life. They do not practice multiculturalism in the sense that the Anglosaxon world practices it, but rather people are forced to assimilate into local customs as much as possible; in reality, due to social pressures, the concept of multiculturalism only allows those people who grew up in 'ethnic ghettos' to retain their culture.
In reality, it's predominantly the "foriegn religions" that suffer the most, in particular Islam, because the boundary between religion and culture can be very vague - is Christmas not a Christian holiday?

It's widely accepted that multiculturalism has failed throughout Europe. It's of note that only something like 30% of British youth was willing to accept more migrants from Syria, which collapsed when other Islamic countries were concerned; the UK agreed to accept the least migrants of any western country on earth, and it hasn't even accepted the amount that it agreed to!
The far-right in Europe have support from ethnic minorities (Jews, Indians, and East Asians), sexual minorities, youth, women, and a lot of left-wing voters are also displeased with the migrants too. It's an angry backlash after the migrant crisis broke the camel's back.
Should India, which adopted the current political concept of multiculturalism and secularism from British university educated scholars, reform its system so that Muslims are considered to be a separate ethnocultural group, and that people are forced to make allowances Hindus?
