Circumcision in India: Revise text.
Non-therapeutic infant circumcision is not normally done in India.
Although male circumcision is not unlawful, it is not part of the culture or religion of most Indians. In fact, it is viewed with distaste or even horror by most Indians, especially since it is associated with Islamic practice. Sikhism prohibits cutting of the body. Hindus, Sikhs, and others have no desire to appear to be Muslim. The vast majority of males are [[foreskinned]].
Boys born into the 14.2% Muslim minority of families are usually [[circumcised]] prior to puberty.
