He has made fun of Sikhs in the past.

Well, then the majority of them are ok with racist/biased recruitment policies. Punjabis form the largest component in the army here due to their numbers, they arent disproportionally represented or anything. Even among them, it is the Potoharis who form the biggest component.

Here is a pre-1947 map of British Colonial India, showing Muslim majority and Hindu majority regions: With provinces represented: Further, the focus being on Punjab, here is a map of Muslim-Hindu-Sikh percentages, in the Punjabi speaking areas of the British province of Punjab, minus...

And btw @Talwar e Pakistan , you should've made it like Punjabi, Potohari, Pashtun, Saraiki etc. rather than starting off with Pashtuns and then focusing on Punjabi baradaries. And Zia was an a**hole, should've used someone else for the Arains.

The question is, what is Hinduism in the first place? "Hinduism, as a faith, is vague, amorphous, many-sided, all things to all men. It is hardly possible to define it, or indeed to say definitely whether it is a religion or not, in the usual sense of the word.” [Jawaharlal Nehru, The Discovery...

How do you take having origin in Sanskrit to being equivalent to being a 'Hindu' (whatever that term means) name? Sanskrit itself has origins outside of Gangetic and Dravdic India. And claims of being 'Hindu' or being copied from Bollywood are rich coming from you, since almost all mainstream...

Lol wtf

I read Aitzaz Ahsan's book

Are you talking about the Adi Shankara part? Its all over the internet. Just Google him.

What do you mean? o_O

Thanks for that article, which I had already read. There are two different mentions of Herakles-like or basically Herakles figures by the Greeks. The one which you make mention of is Megasthenes' Herakles and is from a Seleucid ambassador's contact with the Mauryans. The second is of first...

A version of the Greek deity Herakles was found in Northern Gangetic India by an ambassador of the Selucids to the Mauryans, though connection to Krishna or any other deity is vague and not solid. About Porus however, the most you can get is a vague description of Porus' army having a...

Ok, let me get this. You have a problem with some Pakistanis who appear to take pride in Ghauri, Ghazni, Salahuddin Ayubi (probably) and even MBQ since they are not related in the genetic sense to them and Pakistanis arent the descendants of them but you oppenly take pride in Porus, a supposed...

Yup, but man it is rather pointless to argue with these Indian trolls since they are utterly clueless to everything other than the Hindootva propoganda that they spew here 24/7 and you have to explain to them everything from the start and even then you'll probably be called names or whatever...

Yes you are correct, but you cant call them Iranians since Iran didnt exist back then. But yes, Gedrosian Baloch is a Eurasian/North-Eastern Anatolian component and is the single major component of every Pakistani population. Anyway, this thread was kind of dumb to begin with and has now...

Yes but we are talking about Turkish people, people from Turkey and not what the original Turks were. Turkish is an Oğuz Turkic language, most similar to Turkmen and Azerbaijani languages. And why do Turkish people have to either be Europeans or be Middle Easterners? They are related to other...

Turks are related to neighbouring Armenians, Georgians and Greeks mostly. They do have slightly more Eurasian or Mongoloid in them though.

It was a political conflict and should be viewed with proper context with regards to it's time and era. Things aren't as black and white or good vs evil as people make them out to be. Raja Dahir was a Brahmanic 'Hindu' King who was ruling a population mostly comprised of Jatts and Meds who were...
