Imran shares 'prophetic' excerpt of Khushwant Singh's 'The End of India'

[arjunk]

Actually, we have an entry-level IFS officer who usually deal with Imran Khan and his jibe at India. Modi need not be concerned with tug fights or twitter wars.

Who's elections revolved around being BDSM'd by Pakistan?

Imran shares 'prophetic' excerpt of Khushwant Singh's 'The End of India'

Over five years after his death, prolific journalist and writer Khushwant Singh is back in the news. And it's because of one of his most contentious books, the provocative The End of India. First published in 2003, a year after the Gujarat riots, the book has been described by its publisher Penguin Books as a "wake-up call for every citizen concerned about his or her own future".

Since the agitation over the Citizenship (Amendment) Act started a week ago, social media users have shared excerpts from it, including a particular portion referring to the nature of "Fascist" regimes. The daughter of BCCI chief Sourav Ganguly shared the excerpt on Wednesday (and deleted it). Now, Pakistan Prime Minister Imran Khan is the latest to share this excerpt from The End of India.

In a tweet, with an image of the excerpt, Imran wrote, "Prophetic words of Khushwant Singh who foresaw where India was headed with its racial supremacist ideology”. Ever since the passage of the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, Imran has tweeted about the Narendra Modi government having traits of “Nazi” ideology and warned about the threat of nuclear war.

“Every fascist regime needs communities and groups it can demonize in order to thrive. It starts with one group or two. But it never ends there. A movement built on hate can only sustain itself by continually creating fear and strife... No one is safe. We must realize this if we hope to keep India alive,” reads the excerpt from The End of India.

Given the emotive nature of the protests against the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, several social media users have shared the aforementioned excerpt to present a sense of gloom.

When it was written, The End of India had evoked outrage among sections of people for its provocative nature. The book was published during the tenure of the BJP-led government of Atal Bihari Vajpayee.

In its overview of the book, Penguin Books notes The End of India was written in the backdrop of various acts of communal unrest. Penguin Books notes, “Analysing the communal violence in Gujarat in 2002; the anti-Sikh riots of 1984; the burning of Graham Staines and his children; the targeted killings by terrorists in Punjab and Kashmir; Khushwant Singh forces us to confront the absolute corruption of religion that has made us among the most brutal people on earth.”

To reply, you need some intellect, knowledge and wisdom. Modi is deprived of all three.

Modi -- or any Indian politician -- does not need to respond to IK's nonsense. India proved IK to be an empty suit when it revoked Articles 370 and 35A. The world's response to IK's please was to, say, muted.

Modi has his hands full with most important 'anti Muslims CAA, most imp. RAM mandir at Ayodhya, which will win him more Hindu extremist electorates and demonizes Muslims'...who cares about intl' audience, India prestige, they don't give Modi votes.

Since when did Pakistanis care about Muslims? If so keen on India's CAA, why not take these Muslim refugees? After all, Pakistan was created to be a homeland for South Asia's Muslims.

I didn't know you revoked 370 and 35A to antagonize IK

I thought this was to do with your ideology.

BTW! as a result of this revoking the dragon is now sitting on your jugular - my best wishes to you.

Pakistan is only for Pakistani citizens

If Indians hate each other then partition India

It was a response to his second World Cup victory after meeting with Trump.

I thought this was to do with your ideology.

It was always on the cards, of course, but IK made it easier.

BTW! as a result of this revoking the dragon is now sitting on your jugular - my best wishes to you.

As usual, Pakistan continues to bank on others to win for them. China is just the latest partner.

If Indians hate each other then partition India

Pakistanis don't hate each other?

Subtly, this quote also applies to Pakistani society.

So which other country leader is replying to Imran Khan???
Whether Modi matches the Charisma of IK or not, time will tell... Hands on heart can you say IK will be next PM of Pak.

1). Most recently it was Bangladesh PM, who responded to IK. There is a long list prior to that.

2). History has already made a clear judgement, Modi is nowhere close to IK charismatic personality. Since IK's arrival, Pakistan has risen and Since Modi's arrival India has gone down.

3). Nobody has a crystal ball, all being well I see IK to be Pakistan PM for a total of 15 years - inshaALLAH.

Modi is too scared to even do press conferences let alone speak a coherent sentence.

 

[Chhatrapati]

Modi is too scared to even do press conferences let alone speak a coherent sentence.

He won two National Elections with his speeches, mostly single-handedly. I don't really doubt his oratorical skills. Find a better flaw next time.

 

[Kyusuibu Honbu]

Modi doesnt even give a fck to imran....while IK is always busy in tweeting about india and Modi.
Imran, you are the head of a country...protect the dignity of that position...

In regard to End of a nation state If only IK was much concerned about his own nation than India, his nation would have done much better than India in fragile states index ranking

No idea about modi intelligence. But indian vlogger shekhar of print had invited Francis Fukuyama of End of History and Fareed Zakaria of CNN: GPS. Both have warned about threats to India's democracy and multiculturalism under Modi.

Lol anyone can read scripted speeches. Why doesnt the pm of the worlds biggest "democracy" even do press conferences. He cant even answer unscripted questions. Hes still traumatised from this interview lol. If he and Imran Khan ever sat side by side for a press conference by foreign Journalists we both know Khan will demolish him.

Even Modi knows this. This is why he was so excited to meet his idol!
