Its good that the BCF included the non muslims to the iftar party... I request whenever U invite them atleast convey the message of the CREATOR of all that exits...
Some honest hindus support hindutuva agendas cos of their ignorance of our deen, and when we muslims enlighten them, they will realise and come to know the reality of hindutuva agenda who divide the society with our ignorance...

Good luck, hope More Islamic knowledge is shared to non muslims in the future events.
