Some of our Pakistani posters have reversed the sequence of the creation of the word PAKISTAN. It was first conceived as PAKstan by Chowdhury Rahmat Ali, whereby PAK means holy. So, Pakstan means a holy land. After this stage, the syllables P, A, K, S, T, A and N were thought about and it was seen that these can be used to denote Punjab, Afganiya, Kashmir, Sind, BaluchisTAN. 'I' was then added to this word for people to pronounce it easily.
But, today's Pakistanis are being misguided by the nomenclatures. They are claiming Bengal was not supposed to be a part of Pakistan. It is a complete distortion of history. I hope, Pakistanis will become more pragmatic in their thinking. It was the Muslims of Bengal and Bihar who fought for Pakistan, when today's Pakistanis were sleeping on the laps of Hindu Congress.
Muslim League was formed in Dhaka in 1910s. Fazlul Haq, the then Chief Minister of Bengal, proclaimed the Lahore Resolution in 1942 (?). Muslim League formed provincial govt. only in Bengal after the 1946 provincial election all over India. Can a Pakistani poster tell me what were the results of the same elections in your holy land?
I request people to stick to the reality of history and not to think lies are the truths. Bd people, except a few nostalgic persons like me, have no regret for breaking of Pakistan into two. We want a progressive Pakistan and Bangladesh. Only then the dream of Zinnah and all others of those days will be materialized.
