I am someone stuck somewhere between being a pathan or a muhajir. One I would never be known as and the other I don't want to be known as. But I also admit that these ethnic parties have destroyed Pakistan and their supporters are arrogant and conceited. For example no matter how much proof you give to the MQM supporters they will not stop supporting their horrid party. You can mention Ajmal Pahari, Saulat Mirza, even people they have killed like Wali Babar. There is no way they will stop trusting in this horrid party.
Ethnic politics is a reality in Pakistan and each party has an ethnic base. PPP rules sindh, PMLN rules Punjab, BNP rules Balochistain, ANP Pakhtunkhwa and MQM Karachi. Its a sad state of affairs.
The first step about this is perhaps to be the first to refuse ethnic politics ourselves. Then we can tell others. Think about Pakistan, thats what I always say.
