The Hindu community in France consists of some long-time residents and many recent immigrants. Although Hinduism does not constitute a large proportion of the population it appears to be growing rapidly; the current Hindu population of France is 121,312 or 0.2% of the nation's population, up from an estimated 50,000 in 1993. It is the fourth largest in Europe, after those of the United Kingdom, The Netherlands and Italy.〔Hinduism by country〕 == Notable French Hindus == * Vikash Dhorasoo, a member of the French Football World Cup squad in 2006.
