This isn't any form of fairness. It is lack of choice. Muslims demanded Pakistan... they got it by advocating their interests and paying the price in blood. If we wouldn't have strived for Pakistan we would be in an even worse position. At least we muslims of Indian occupied parts have one nation we can rely on for support and if times are bad sanctuary. Thats what my parents and grandparents from my fathers side felt which is why they moved. And moving back to the topic-this girl too, the girl which is discussed in the article.
Again I say. We muslims of Indian occupied parts are not Indian. We may have chosen to stay behind either because we had no choice or the means to move but we will always be loyal to Pakistan-even if some muslims left do become Indians and are tamed. I have cousins of both types.
They have choices:
1. They can live as Indians and contribute to the society, most of them are doing so.
2. They can move over to Pakistan or Bangladesh that were created for Muslims, some did.
3. They can try to repeat another partition and face the consequences, a few are facing that.
It's a very fair deal.
You are absolutely wrong. It is easy to see the current dictatorial regimes and believe secularism is anti Islam as these regimes portray. The truth is otherwise. Islam could not have grown without secular policies initially because the non muslim population once outnumbered the early muslims.
Practical examples always carry more weight than theories...and what I said is actually happening or happened, not how it should be.
Btw, isn't converting people to Islam is one of the main religious duties in Islam? And apparently end result supersedes the means. Your blasphemy law, is it a fair deal to the minorities of Pakistan, or Bangladesh?
I believe so. If you do not that is your choice.
It's not about what you or I believe, just read some history from credible sources, or google a bit, and you will find the awful measures that were taken by the state to convert Zoroastrians to Islam.
The biggest problem with the Muslims in general (barring some liberal exceptions) is that they don't really believe in the humane principal of
"Live and let live". They need to....
You won't find this problem among Hindus in general (again barring some rogue exceptions), because we believe there can be many paths leading to the ultimate goal of salvation, your intent and your actions are more important than your rituals. That's why you will find plenty of Hindus in Muslim dargas and mazhars.
No comment as the said topic is off topic.
Why? When you talk about the status of religious minorities in India, then the topic of the status of religious minorities in Pakistan and Bangladesh comes naturally, we are connected by a shared history.
Most Kashmiris use peaceful means to achieve independence or merger with Pakistan. But muslims are suffering in Kashmir. When you kill someones parents they will try to take revenge. You can be sure of it. Even I have no intention of leaving RAW for what they have done in my country.
First step for the parents should be to check the activities of their radicalized children, knowing the consequences of it.
I agree, unless the state of Pakistan calls on them to fight when India attacks Pakistan-they can be a war asset. Fighting without the support of a state or without sanction is not allowed.
I am not too hopeful about whether they would answer to that call...a very large majority of them didn't during our past 'engagements' with Pakistan. However, if anyone does, then that person knows the consequences of treason in advance.
