1.Hindu and Muslim revivalist movements.

2. Rise of communal and fundamentalist parties.

3.Divisive Politics – Communalism is often defined as a political doctrine that makes use of religious and cultural differences in achieving political gains. Political parties polarize naive voters in the name of religion. Vote bank appeasements, favouring particular section, etc. incites feeling of hatred about others. Politicians supply stories of past crimes, which transform non-haters into haters, to maximise the number of votes received.

4. Psychological Factors

The lack of inter-personal trust and mutual understanding between two communities often result in perception of threat, harassment, fear and danger in one community against the members of the other community , which in turn leads to fight, hatred and anger phobia.

Disappointment and disaffection among young and aspiring middle class youth, caused by stagnant agriculture, absence of modern industrial development and inadequate employment opportunities, which is being exploited by political opportunists.

Isolation and Economic Backwardness of Muslim Community – The failure to adopt the scientific and technological education and thus, insufficient representation in the public service, industry and trade etc has led to the feeling of relative deprivation among Muslims.
