No ifs or buts - Aug5 was the date Pak permanently said good bye to IOK.

On the other hand I would have thought Pak would be jumping with joy at India’s CA act. Not for the demonstrations, but CAA shoots down the contentious issue of the myth of BJP’s Akhand Bharath goal.

I see you can spin the wheel as good as Gandhi could.

The name India is based on a Pakistani river need i remind you Gandhi.

As far as response to August 5 is concerned. You may be on a schedule. We have time on our side.

Patience remains to be a virtue.
 
It has been 5 month since Aug5. Stop spewing nonsense and tell your army to burn their tampons and do something.

I thought that tampons are used by "Bharat Mata", since centuries.:lol:

No, really. Indira Gandhi sunk Jinnah’s 2 nation theory in the Bay of Bengal in 1971.

In 2019 BJP sunk Close to their heart Akhand Bharat theory in Arabian Sea through CAA. Ironic but true.
