You are 100% correct. Women in rural Rajesthan, Haryana and western UP cover their faces. But its not mandatory and no one forces this.. Moreover its fading away very fast. I honestly don't know how and when it was interoduced . In fact I have seen older woman even in west covering their faces...
Keep dreaming. It does not cost anything to dream even Africa s part of Pakistan. Just to let you know from Indian side that we will never let it happen.

As I had already mentioned, we have different perspectives on almost everything. Doesn't matter how honestly I put my views, they would appear to be distorted. I have not questioned those who wanted Pakistan. I just wrote how I and most others feel. I know , we are poles apart on everything and...
He will be the worst PM one can think of for India. He won't mind putting India into flames if it helps him. But who knows, people change colours when in power.

If at all we wish to address the Indo-Pak issues, we have to accept some truths with all honesty. Making smiling faces won't help. With all honest I wish to point out;
1. Majority of Indians did not like the creation of Pakistan. My single reason of not liking is that this amounted to our...
Please don't pass judgements so fast. No one has a set agenda here. I have heard large many people in Pakistan who openly support Taliban. By responding in extreme manner I was trying to gaudge the opinion of members here. Do you think I am a savage who supports such rules. Don't be upset my...
My very dear friend,
Religion has always been used as a tool to govern by some and as a tool to achive divinity by others. There has been nothing which can be called balck and white. There are many shades of grey in between. Meanings of same word change from place to place. There are no...
Reason is very simple. US and Pakistani relations are very different than Indo-Pak relations. Its somewhat like wife husband as far as USA and Pakistan are concerned. Wife does not mind being beaten by her " Mian", but not anyone else. Trust me, even husband won't let his wife be beaten by...
I agree. But then everyone has his own interpretation of Islam. There is sufi version, Talibani version, Ahmadiya version, Shia version, Sunni version and so on.. How will one convince a Talibani that his version of Islam is not the right one ?

Why do you call prostitution bad ? If rich people can have harams, where will the poor go? Moreover, aren't the men responsible for pushing women into this trade. I agree in an ideal world its bad. However, where is that ideal world?

Why sick ? This is the way punishment is rendered in Orthodox Islam. Ask Taliban, they will convince you. At times I strongl;y feel that Taliban should rule the whole world and only then people will will know what a civil society should be.

You know, Muslims will always have loads of enemies till they have this word kaffir in their vocablary. Muslims hardly leave any options for others after calling them by this name. Whole Heaven breaks loose when someone in west calls a Pakistani " ****". Don't you think people react very...
No one wants war, but still wars do happen. I am very doubtful if the next Indo-Pak war will remain limited. At best it may turn out to be a WWIII if China jumps into the fray. I am very doubtful of Pakistan giving up her claim on Kashmir and India ever accepting the same. After tasting success...
Why should it hurt ? is Pakistan not doing the same for so long in Kashmir and other parts of India. I know neither Paksitan will stop, nor India. In fact things are going to escalate after Mumbai attacks. Its just amatter of time when major war breaks and going Nuclear. Best would be to enjoy...
This is your perception to which ofcourse you are fully entitled. Hoever, your wish is not likely to be completed for another 1000 years. Don't you think Pakistan also has clash with every neighbour? anyway.. I am very sure that this region is doomed for massive destruction sooner or later. Let...
Agreed. In normal senses we all think alike. However, when India thinks that enough is enough and plans to go on war, there is this danger of Nuclear war. For how long do you think India will be bullied with Mumbai like terrorists attacks? Do you think Indian public will let Indian politicians...
Wish reasonable people would have been running the nations. Tragedy is otherwise. Its the unreasonable few who are the root cause of all problems world over.
