Hindus of Balochistan - BBCURDU

.
Nice video. I didn't know Pakistani Hindus lived in Baluchistan. Sind is the where the largest communities are to be found.
There are some Hindu families in ISB-RWP region too and they belong to educated background.
 
.

In 1947, the attitude towards Hindus varied from region to region. The hilly tribal areas unaffected by Muslim league/Congress inner Hindustani politics, did excellent job of protecting Hindus and Sikhs who were under their protection as per Pashtunwali. The areas where Khudai Khidmatgar was strong, the Hindus were not harmed because of their association with Congress. In areas where Muslim league was strong, Hindus were forced to evacuate their houses and were forced to migrate towards India. They were stripped of their valuables before leaving the area. Some impatient people simply cut off ears from Hindu women which had gold rings . In my area, the Muslim leaguei leader Khan Habibullah Khan (who later became Chief Minister of West Pakistan), organized a mob and occupied all the houses of Hindus. They found the jewellery and money buried in walls and ground of the Hindu houses. The land property of Hindus and the looted items made him immensely rich. In zhob, Nawab Jogezai although a Muslim leagui leader, made sure that Hindus under his protection remains protected.

The only area of NWFP where blood of Hindus was shed like Punjab, was Dera Ismail Khan. In other places , people were only interested in looting than killing.

It can be back lash of bad treatment did by Sikhs and Hindus against muslims migrants. It was claimed that the trains after arrival consists of only dead bodies even children were not spared by them. Without help of Khudai Khidmatgaran it can be difficult for AKRF regiment to liberate very important districts like Muzaffarabad and other adjacent districts.
People of Azad Kashmir are in debt for the services of our Tribes. We are proud on you.

No, they were motivated by greed when they were looting Hindus. If it was black lash in response to events in East Punjab, they also would have spilled the blood.

I doubt any Khidmatgar of Bacha Khan went to Kashmir, they were "Congressi". The hill tribesmen who went to Kashmirs , were "warriors" , the type who simply loved the warring and glory associated with it. Also the type who do you a favour when you ask them of a favour. They had no beef with Maharaja of Kashmir. Earlier they had assisted Nadir Shah against Bacha Saqao of Afghanistan when the former made an appeal of help to them. They had no beef with Bacha Saqao either.

I was reading some where that High Lander tribes (Mehsood, Afridi and Wazir) were participated in First Kashmir war and another account says these tribes were inspired by Khudai Khidmatgaran.

Is this actually taught in your schools?? Because most Pakistani believe that murder and loot happened from our side only. Very sad chapter in our subcontinent history.

We don't believe that, Indians need to stop making up silly assumptions that "majority Pakistanis are this and that" or "majority Pakistanis believe in this and that".

Both sides suffered, but Muslims suffered the worst.

Good video but don't forget that the Mithi is the only city in Pakistan which has 80% of its population is Hindus and remaining 20% Muslim.
