Decision to rename Lahore landmark after Bhagat Singh on hold

[illusion8]

General Zia did more damage to Pakistan by radicalization of the country than all of Indian Intelligence agencies and Military put together.. India should award him Vashisht Sewa medal in the next round

Gen Zia got swayed by the petrodollars pouring in and the ideology that comes with the funding followed too, he wanted to be the leader of the Muslim world - a dream he took to his grave, I think Arabs should facilitate him much more than India.

Banned books | DAWN.COM
Jinnah of Pakistan, was also banned (while India banned the same author’s 1962 book Nine Hours to Rama, apparently because it exposes security lapses that led to Gandhi’s assassination.).

There is a lot of difference to ban a author for security lapse and being banned for talking about a character...
lot of gandhi books having negativity about him are in market.. Y dont pakistan allow the same? Cos the author showed character of jinnah?
Pls lets stick to topic... I have a good regard for Mr.jinnah... Dont want to spoil it, for the sake of discussion..
Topic is on Bhagat singh..

why did pakistan ban it though ?

Because of TRUTH

He was a terrorist who bombed the British or tried to!

Since you are a bit rickety in your history.

He exploded a smoke bomb in the British legislative assembly..which was passing a resolution, giving police free hand against peaceful demonstrators(Defence of Indian act) and then did not run but remained there shouting slogans of "Inquilab Zindabad!" ("Long Live the Revolution!") and showered leaflets..till he was arrested.

He was terrorist for British,but for Indians(which then included the future Pakistanis also) he was a revolutionary freedom fighter, because he stood against British imperial govt, which massacred hundreds and thousands in Jalianwala Bagh massacre.
Would you call Tipu Sultan a terrorist too ..since he fought and killed many Britishers..his cannons blasted many British soldiers??

No, Tipu fought invaders while Bhagat fought rulers

If you're thinking that it's insulting, it's not. I wonder why they banned it!

Why would I want to read books that insult our leaders? Read back in this thread.. I have immense respect for Jinnah
