In Pakistan a General can not be questioned during his tenure. In my personal opinion after the retirement of Gen Sharief three points will decide if he retains the respect he got as serving general.
1. Critical analysis of op Zarb-e-Azb
2. Action he took against India's Surgical Strike
3. In...
Poverty is a curse of South Asia. Irony is that the region is resource rich yet poverty ridden. Any news about reduction in poverty is a welcome news.
Reduction in rate of poverty in BD can be attributed to internal political stability, right government policies & political will and positive...
Yes late 80s and 90s were worst time for India in terms of politcal instability specially after 1989; economic instability- we had worst economic crisis in the 90s, height of terrorism in Punjab and Kashmir - after Soviet collapse all the afghan jihadis were diverted to Kashmir and non-muslims...
I know this but there has to be some start. We should not be seen as doing this for punishing Pakistan but for our genuine concerns. We can take the cue from rejection of IWT in the J&K assembly and China building the dams on Indus and Sutlej plus lack of shared goodwill.
Scrapping of IWT does not mean the river Indus, Jhelum and Chenab will stop flowing into Pakistan automatically or India will build a wall and stop the flow. Like this article many in India and Pakistan are thinking that way and have started accusing India of being the devil who is planning to...
Amrullah Saleh once tweeted that Afghan refugees are staying on Afghan land across the Durand Line that was drawn by the British.
India also hosted Afghan refugees albeit in thousands and not in lakhs as hosted by Pakistan and will do so if Afghans choose to come to India.
Pakistan was created for religiously insecure muslims and hence this behaviour. For them everything Indian is hindu and anti muslim. They forget India has as many muslims as Pakistan has.
I live in Mumbai and I know Shivsena is basically a hindu nationalist political party and MNS has the same...
Whats wrong in this? People have freedom of their opinion.
Being friends does not mean we will be stooge to any nation.
We had our tantrums during Devyani Khobragade episode.
It may surprize Pakistan but we speak our mind.
When you compare a poll, you should ask the same question with same options. In this case Pakistanis are given the option of being a "martyr or not" while Indians given option of "being ready or life is too precious". But one thing is clear that Indians value their future more while Pakistanis...
How?
Please read the reply at #21 of your fellow countryman. He will clear your confusion should you have any.
When you call someone brother, you wont hate being compared with him.
In India on an average 30,000 people are murdered every year. You expect me to issue condemnation at all these mureders or you expect me to do it only when muslims are killed by hindus and not when killed by a muslim or others? We dont need a lecture from others on what happens in our house...
If there is a debate on such a topic, we would not like the truth to be hidden. We Indians are already envious of economic growth rate of Papua New Guinea. Indian govt. started to focus on micro financing after Bangladesh won Nobel Prize for economics. The good must be appreciated and emulated...
Why can't some nation who champion the cause of muslims takes up the matter with the United Nations? Its a beautiful opportunity to show "Hindu India" in poor light and declare it a terror state. What for Pakistan has made nuclear weapons... just to save west Punjab??
I still don't understand why Pakistan should get so much hurt being compared with Bangladesh? Bangladesh is not untouchable. They were part of Pakistan and are not even your enemy. For several years they had the best economic growth rate in South Asia. They taught the world the advantages of...
Its not just cow or beef, in India, you can not kill a whole lot of animal species like Tiger, Rhino, Peacock, deer to name a few. I have eaten deer and peacock meat as well as beef and by eating it or by not eating it, nothing happens to my religion. People who think beef is inherent to Islam...
We have no issues if CPEC passes thru an undisputed territory. Let CPEC pass through Afghanistan, Kazakhistan and not thru Pakistan Occupied Kashmir, I am sure Indian govt. will join it and invest in it heavily. Alternatively would you like to route the CPEC via Jammu, Srinagar, Leh?? Hope you...
