This is what Ahmad Shah Abdali had to say about an Indian ethnicity regarding their character..
The valour displayed by the Marathas was extolled by Ahmad Shah Abdali in his letter to his ally, Madho Singh, the king of
Jaipur.

Afghans recognize everything east of Sutlej as legitimate Indian territorry
Though Abdali won the battle, he also had heavy casualties on his side. So, he sought immediate peace with the Marathas. Abdali sent a letter to Nanasaheb Peshwa (who was moving towards Delhi albeit at a very slow pace to join Bhau against Abdali) pleading to the Peshwa that he was not the one who attacked Bhau and that he was just defending himself. Abdali wrote in his letter to Peshwa on 10 February 1761:
^^^This was the assessment of the greatest Muslim since Babur about certain Indic ethnicties....Show me where the father of Afghanistan gives this level of respect to a Pakistani ethnicity and recognizes the independence of a Pakistani ethnicity...This is the Great Father of Afghanistan himself speaking
