Rest in Peace Pakistan (1947-1974)
Posted by prajiv Jun 30, 2007 07:07 am
``After having valiantly fought and won against the tyranny of the Hindu majority in United India``
Can somebody explain what ``tyranny`` of the Hindu majority Jinnah was fighting against ?

Kaal,I agree that the people you mentined ``salim bro, hamidm2 sahib, zeemax, HP, rf786 `` are really intelligent people(I can guess that by looking at their posts).I will be a fool to doubt their intelligence.I was just expressing my opinion based on our expereinces in India.India suffers from same ills as Pakistan ,but somehow we managed survive because of 1)Strong institutions and 2)Few good people in postion of power.

Thats exactly what Pakistan needs-1)Strong institutions and 2)Few good people in postion of power(this is the MINIMUM requirement)


(Note:This is not a lecture/advice ..just a wish)

Anyway...good advice/wish(however simple and well known) is better than abuses.

Salim Bhai....we understand your anger...but somehow you people (Sindhis,Mohajirs and Punjabis) need to develop inter community relationship ..for sake of comming generations. As former Indian PM Vaajpayee said ``You can choose your freinds but not the neighbours``. If a country consists of more than one community and you don`t want to break the country then you should develop some machanism to live peacefully togather.

Salim bhai...I agree with the importance of parties like MQM,but I think they need to refine their methods ..also they need to have internal and external democracy in MQM...good luck to MQM.

Re: # 81
kaal...thanks for clarifying. But now a days,English or ``Hinglish`` (i.e. Hindi+English) has become a de facto native language of India.

Guys...Guys...why are you screwing me for ``Godman`` ? No its not an animal found in India.
Its a person who cheat innocent faithful people...you can call them ``Guru``,``Maharaj``,``Baba`` etc. I don`t have any reason to believe that these kind of people are found in India only.

Re: # 69
In India,we have lot of fake ``Godman`` and very few real Gurus..I think same must be true in Sindh.By authentic,I mean a saint who is considered to be a God realized person by majority of intellegent people.

The General vs. the Judge
Posted by prajiv May 29, 2007 08:48 am
I have written small couplet-

``Mohajiro ke leader mahaan
Altaf,Musharaf aur Salim Chauhan``
The General vs. the Judge
Posted by prajiv May 29, 2007 08:34 am
I have one solution for all your mohajir problems: Divide Sindn in 2 provices(with full autonomy) 1) Mohajirstan (for Urdu speaking Mohajirs) 2) Sindhstan (for orginal Sindhis)

one more autonomus province should be created in pakistan which should be called ``Kaafirstan`` where all the ``Kaafirs`` of Pakistan can stay. What do you think?
