6 surprises that greet a Pakistani in India

Well borders are always like this. Dover, UK - humans. Calais, France - humans, Belguim - humans, Germany - more humans. Same looking, same clothes, same culture, same religion, same civilization.

Although I hear that when you cross the 49th parallel north from USA to Canada an entire differant species is found called the "Canadian".

And the Durand line cuts across the Punjab thus divides like from like except religion. There is probably more tangible differance between Indian West Bengal and Indian Punjab then across the Durand Line.

I barely understand Hindi/Urdu, but can I assume you're trying to say when God made us, the differences didn't exist?
"Duniya", as in the world of humans or the world of the first unicellular life on earth? If it's the latter I can agree, otherwise it's just another emotional rant! ;p

One of the most famous British chefs Gordon Ramsey, an ardent critic of vegetarianism remarked after about a couple of months stay in India
"Its hard to see how a person from west can turn to vegetarianism, but if someone wants to, India is probably the only place to be."

I agreed with you but meat taste is so much in our genes we can't turn into vegan but in a day most of the Pakistani eat atleast on veg meal.
