Geneticist use the term ANI(ancestral North Indians) for Eurasian ancestry of Indians, recent genetic tests prove every community in India, even isolated tribal nomadic communities have them while ASI(Ancestral South Indians) is referred to the races entirely native to India. All people in North and South have mix of ANI and ASI.
Most importantly mate then your Y-Chromosone haplogroup DNA is only a small part of your OVERALL DNA. That is why Middle Eastern people cluster with each other much more regardless of language, culture, religion than they do with South Asians, South East Asians or Northern Asians/Far East Asians. That's a genetically established and undisputed fact. In terms of history and human migrations that also makes sense perfectly.
In fact Middle Eastern people overall cluster more with nearby Europeans, in particular Europeans around the Mediterranean Sea (Southern Europeans and people on Balkan) more than they do with South Asians. Much more. That is not strange since most of those Europeans genes are from the Middle East.
So that was what I tried to say in the beginning to your countryman.
Afghans, Pakistanis and parts of Northern Indians are those who cluster the most with Middle Eastern populations in South Asia simply because they are geographically closer. Anyway let us not go off-topic anymore.
