I wonder why that would be.

Waziristan ulema has rejected Mohsin Dawar's claim, but that still probably won't satiate bigots and hypocrites like you.

I'm not sure about the funeral rites within mainstream Hindu religion, but is it possible to temporarily bury the bodies? Also the people here that are using this tragedy to score brownie points are sick and demented.

The artform is officially known as Greco-Buddhist art and albeit it's heavy Greco-Roman influence, it is considered distinct. Likewise, the The Art of Mathura too is considered a distinct art-style even despite it's heavy Greco-Roman influence. The claim that these sculptures were made by...

It wouldn't be possible as Indian polities such as the Mauryans or Guptas lack the realistic style of sculpting that was introduced to the Gandharans by the Greeks. I believe there were facial shape reconstructions based off of the skeletons found in Rakhigharhi, I could try those. Not even...

Never said it was magic. You are correct. Except my versions have no post-processing. Gandhara far predates Greco-Bactrians who were a separate people that invaded the Indus region (including Gandhara) and were eventually assimilated by the local inhabitants. We have genetic samples of the...

Glad to hear. I am currently working on a project that utilizes cutting-edge AI to generate photorealistic faces from Gandharan sculptures. Stay tuned.

I didn't say that the people of Punjab were Gandharans (according to the Mahabharata), rather they were grouped alongside Gandharans. Punjab is and has always been The Fiver Rivers and it's Doabs. Even Mahabharata that you are quoting clearly defines the geography of Punjab (then called...

Mythical sources can often have some historical value, what's ironic however is that the same Hindu books he is quoting depicts the Indus region in a very negative light.

Pakistan as a modern polity did not exist until 1947, the same goes for India. Pakistani social structure is based on the tribal Biradari/Qabaila system which is identical to the social structure of the Indo-Aryans prior to the development of the caste system. The Biradari/Qabaila social...

Caste system was a later development in North India. Gandhara was originally the Peshawar Valley and adjacent valleys, it later on expanded into North Punjab and parts of Afghanistan while it's ethno-cultural sphere covered the entirety of Pakistan and East Afghanistan. The Aryan Invasion...

Really nice camouflage

This doesn't make sense... He wants a single Pashtun province yet was against the merger of FATA and KPK...? What...?

Both the concepts of India and the subcontinent were artificial constructs that were developed and imposed by the British. "Returning back to cultural roots" would mean the disintegration of India, not it's expansion.

Its not an idol nor is it related to Hinduism

I can't tell if your trolling or actually serious, hard to tell on defence.pk nowadays.

Stopped reading after this as it began to resemble more of a bollywood script.

It's the opposite.

The videos are nice, albeit many inaccuracies. I was surprised about the depth of research in the first video, he mentioned many polities which are typically overlooked. Though the title is inaccurate.

Your comment here exemplifies idiocy, I guess Urdu is a Hindu language. As to what Farsi has to do with Pakistan; Farsi was the lingua franca of modern-day Pakistan for over 600 years, while Urdu has been the lingua franca of modern-day Pakistan beginning in the 1920's-1930's when the British...
