Re: # 326

Thanks for your views, which reflect ground reality of those traumatic days........

The next logical question is ``what is the meaning of Pakistan`` especially with regards to Muslims of Pakistan as well as for the larger Muslim population in India..........

Ideology.......Ummah......or just destiny.....

BTW.....My aunt & her family were also ``thrown out`` of west punjab........reached Delhi and then Lucknow with great difficuly and in the process lost her father and brother to the marauding mobs...........

Re: # 320
``
It is a well-known fact that while 85 per cent of Indian Muslims (nearly 100 per cent from today`s India) voted for Pakistan, only 15 per cent ultimately immigrated to their ``sacred land``.

That Sir is the ultimate irony...............as Mohar rightly put it the theatre of the absurd.........

So did the muslims who stayed back do so because they had a foresight of things to come in their ``sacred land`` and therefore are the ones who migrated from Central Provinces, hyderabad etc simple-minded folks taken in by the spin on Pakistan...........

Questions.......no answers.......

Dear Mantolives,

Even before you could explain why only a miniscule minority of Muslims migrated to Pakistan....this happens;


[ ISLAMABAD: Pakistan may face another partition if democracy is not restored in Balochistan, a senior Opposition leader has said. He urged the country`s ``rulers not to take the country to another tragedy like in 1971.``

``We appeal to our rulers not to take the country to another tragedy like in 1971, and let democratic forces play their role in the healing process in Balochistan,`` said Ahsan Iqbal, the head of the information wing of Pakistan Muslim League-Nawaz.

He said if democracy is not restored, the country may face another East Pakistan-like tragedy in Balochistan``]


Another partition of Pakistan??

Re: # 160

``I think what bears repeating is that my father, a bonafide Ahmadi, believes that it is better to be a Non-muslim in Pakistan than being a Muslim in India...

Is that applicable for Hindus, christians , Sikhs & Parsees in Pakistan also, dear friend........

Tell me, this Hindu Dude, the judge bhagwan whatever when will he get to be your President........

Re: # 156

I disagree with that opinion.......the worst casualty of the TNT concept were the Muslims who stayed back in India......They were put on ``notice`` by the majority community and despite that those who felt education and secular education was of paramount importance have gone on to prove their worth in & for India...eg, Prez Abdul kalam, Azim premji........these Muslims fought their way through an extremely competitive environment and the majority of Indians are proud of them.........

Imagine their plight if they or their granfathers had also bought into the TNT and migrated to Pakistan.............

Or was Pakistan meant only for Punjab & Sindh???

Re: # 147

``The demand for Pakistan was not based on hostility towards India... the idea was to have a Muslim majority state in a confederation or atleast close cooperation with the rest of India... it was the Congress intolerance that made the whole idea bitter for a lot of people.

Dear friend,

Thats right ``a confederation``.......when? yesterday, today or tomorrow..........Considering the blood bath that happened when normal human beings turned savages in Punjab.....no way.......

Re: # 149

Thats Right.......the Muslim peasantry of India had a thorough knowledge of this resolution.....it was completely explained to them....yes they were even provided with special tutorial classes on the subject ...and therfore left their homes, relatives and what not to reach pakistan........

Makes Sense...........

Re: # 137

Mantolives, Dear chap......It was a typo......my apology for hurting your feelings......

Yes, Your excellent posts on TNT has convinced me that a majority of Muslims were eager to flee from hindu domination and reach the Land of the Pure................But were prevented by the horrible hindus who wanted them for their vicarious pleasures.......

Dear Mantolives...............Even accepting your figure of 5.5 of 30 million, is it 100% ........So why did this miniscule minority only migrate to pakistan, the promised land for all muslims of the subcontinent.........

were the ones who opted to stay back more smarter and could see through the ``spin`` offered by Jinnah & CO.........

lot of Questions ......no answers......
