I became aware of how averse Pakistani's of Indian heritage are after the book Indus Saga and Making of Pakistan was published by Aitzaz Ahsan.
The books caused a shitstorm. There was wave of angst by Indian's over a book about our history and our heritage. But what came as a surprise to me [I was naive to realities of Pakistan] the reaction by Pakistani's. They were of course those with roots in Ganga and not part of the "Indus Saga". Thus the negative reaction. But that book was seminal in may ways. As it bean the journey, a long journey where 95% of Pakistan can claim ownership proudly of their own history/heritage which is glorious by any measure.
