Have mentioned pan nationalism, now that is a bit utopian, idealist and far fetched too, as of now.
Kashmir issue can be resolved but for the bloated ego's of India ruling elite, the indoctrination and some kind of imperialistic, supremacist, Akhand Bharat idealogue...
If there is a partition of people and with it the ideals...let it happen fairly, Kashmir issue suits India ruling elite and the establishment.
Yes the song translation doesn't gives the actual feeling as normally happens....
Oh, please....There are many of us who have nothing to do with imperialism, with 'supremacism', whatever that bird might be, and absolutely nothing to do with the toxic Akhand Bharat ideology.
Please consider engaging with us to learn what we think before coming to such glib conclusions.
The thread you attached and started earlier looks intriguing and engrossing at the same time...have to use my full mental faculties to get the gist of it. Will read in detail sooner than later.
I am a fan of Nadeem Farooq Piracha work particularly the other genre of him, tongue-in-cheek sarcasm...pun and wit, yes he is into other aspects like socialism, Islamic history too, a Moudoodi and JI researcher as well, quite a learned folk.
He writes regularly for DAWN media.
Might I, as another Nadeem Paracha* fan take the liberty of pointing out that if he were to make the mistake of coming and posting here, he would be shredded by our mindless but highly energetic green bhakts within seconds?
* Perhaps, due to being unfamiliar with Pakistani names, I know him as Paracha.
The problem is you are only looking at problems from 70 years not solving, Muslim have almost no representation in parliament (less the previous term of parliament), only 2.5% of bureaucracy/Govt Jobs despite being 14% of population, but still hindutva is biggest victim in your country, anyways don't worry about your neighbours, they will do much better without your state sponsored terrorism and interference in their internal political matters.
Do you even know the date of the Sarkaria Commission and of its report? That might correct some of your sweeping conclusions. Do you know that a particular state in the Union gets an overwhelming majority of bureaucratic openings? It is completely out of line with the percentage of the population that it has.
What you mean by 'Hindutva' being the biggest victim in my country is difficult to fathom; I was under the foolish impression that we were the victims of Hindutva. Thank you for correcting my back to front understanding.
Finally, you might like to look up the term ironic when you have a couple of hours of spare time. Considering that the deployment of 'non-state actors' has been part of your state policy from 1947 onwards, it sounds strange when you complain about state-sponsored terrorism and interference in a neighbour's internal political matters, after having practically invented these. If you wish, I can give you exact and specific detail, from publications by Pakistani soldiers of repute, of these, an offer I make since either you are unaware of or you desire to ignore these nasty realities.
