I think there is nothing wrong with him claiming pashtun identity very much like I have. What is muhajir anyway? A person who moves from place a to b? Then everyone is a muhajir because he moved from somewhere.Punjabis in Karachi are muhajir, Pathans in Balochistan are muhajir, Baloch in punjab are muhajirs... so on
Also muhajir is a very offensive term. It has a certain connection with religious nomads. As far as I see my parents though born in Lucknow were settled in Karachi, a city and have nothing to do with nomads. If you look closely the blacks were given names like longbottom, black, white, brown, by their white masters. But as with all groups given such names they are trying to get rid of them and adopting other names. See nation of Islam and other black nationalist groups.
However if you look closely there is no effort amongst us muhajirs to get rid of the name our entire community has been given or has adopted, a name which I view as offensive. So it is our responsibility to get rid of this term. And no, it is our belief that people will make fun and even if they do let them, its only going to be racists who make fun anyway.
I think we mahajirs should change our mentality and merge as Pakistanis before even thinking about adopting pashtun/sindhi/punjabi/other identity. When the entire nation is calling MQM terrorist, why stand beside it even when Altaf offended my grandparents and parents by calling partition a mistake and asking India to protect them, the same country we ran away from with their hearts in our mouths.
Its very simple, look internally. I mean when have we been ready to criticize ourselves and our faults rather than blaming the Punjabis Sindhis Pathans and others. I am from a muhajir family and all I have seen within my community is hatred for other ethnic groups, very sorry to say.
Ever action always gets a reaction ?
Overeducated people's ultra IMRANIST like you lives in a dream world where others opinions doesn't exists ?
Its the popular opinion of the peoples of Karachi , to call or identity themselves "MUHAJIR" which doesn't means , they all are immigrants from other country or mars ?
Its their will, its their decision , which they have exercises in every political activity ?
Its their constitutional right to do so ?
& to all others serikies, hazara,s ?
Biggest solution is to form , smaller provinces & let every one has his own political & social identity , which is acceptable all around world ?
Its really shameful to see , a educated person like you , blaming only muhajirs even his own relatives , because they don't buy the dream world of you & your dream world leader ?
Ethinic divide , identity crisis exists all over Pakistan & all the communities has that venom , just a few days ago , poor seriki , punjabi, Sindhi labours were shot in Baluchistan because of their eithinic identity which wasn't liked by few terrorists in Baluchistan ?
But will you blame all Baluchi's for that , come to your senses ?
When your leader was proven as a ZANI , why you are standing behind him , ask yourself ?
It is unfortunate that these kind of people you find every where in Pakistan even in PDF and it is bed luck of Pakistan that we still didn't produce Pakistani as this nation required.
Produce more provinces rather then , telling smallar communities they look kalle kalote ?
Pakistan will become more united then today ?
Nawaz Sharif is also technically a muhajir
What is the definition of Muhajir?
Defenations changes with locations ?
Red Indians & Indians what the defenation of Indians ?
