    According to this lady...
    First pakistan invented a division based on religion and asked(created) a country out of india.
    now after watching the misery of pakistan, Pakistani's are asking india to live and cooperate with pakistan 😂😂
    First Pakistani created a nation on the basis or religion and divisiveness and now asking Indians to live in harmony and peace with Pakistani's 😂😂😂

    Pakistanis are the most tolerant people in the world.
    Usually I hear Hindu baniya, Hindu Kaffir, Ghazwa-e-hind, lal qile par jhanda phrases on Pakistani discussions. These are all phrases of love and tolerance.
    Also see how Pakistanis have treated Hindus, bengalis, Shias, Balochs, Pashtuns, Sikhs, Parsis, Jews, Christians, Ahmadis, and now Afghans. No one will call Pakistanis intolerant.

      He get's too personal. He's arguments are basically 20% and emotions are 80%. That's why, plus he appeals to very partial view of History through a Political Science lens. Not much of a bright. If you want a feel good History of sub-continent. Go for Ishtiaq Lahori aka Ishtiaq Ahmed. If you want a rigorous academic view of History, go for Dr. Ayesha Jalal. Though Dr. Yaqoob Bangash and Dr. ilhan Niaz are brilliant when it comes to South Asian History.

      ​@@ZAIN9858precisely, Ishtiaq sb is almost polemical about history. He simplifies a lot and at the end of each talk, one's left with a black and white view of history.
      But those stances appeal to the schadenfreude of many of his Indian viewers.

    As the sole spokesperson of Jinnah, Ayesha performed the unenviable task of putting the cloak of 'federalism' over the communal agenda of Muslim League admirably, even if hysterical at times. Her defence of the dismissal of NWFP government and imposition of Urdu ran counter to her general arguments in favour of anti-colonialism and federalism. Ayesha seems inclined to externalize the complexities and gravity of the problems faced by Pakistan by characterizing them as regional problems. How do you explain the different political and economic trajectories of the other nations in the region? That is one question she is intent on ducking .Why?

    Odd, Muslim league is not right-wing extremist but hindu mahasabha is! I would think that they were mirror images of each other. Ayesha Jalal wants to love Jinnah, so it seems like she is trying hard to justify everything by putting bad things on circumstances and other external factors and pulling up the slightest good as amazing acts. This is exactly how I behave with my subject in academia. hahaha

      What's annoying is they are so fixated on partition, it's been 75 years for God's sake. And on right wing extremist issue, this thought is only extension of what Congress portrayed in post Independence historiography, propped up by nehruvian academics, used by pakistani academics, as it serves their purpose too. Got their theocratic state and don't come off as bad guys either lol.

      @@AnnieZehra Jinnah had secular views that is the reason he made an Islamic nation, literally torn out of the secular fabric of India . You must realise that the act of carving out of Pakistan, not only damages Pakistan, but also the secular nation that remained. It makes the extremists on the other sides in India a voice! He wasn't secular, he was just playing around with the religious sentiments of the gullible without himself having any affinity to his religion. If he was secular, he would never get religion into politics, that is exactly the opposite of secular. He destroyed Pakistan anyway, but he also did a lot of damage to India.

      @@AnnieZehra Sure here is your answer, Hindu Mahasabha was an exact mirror image of Muslim league and Jinnah was not a secular. India is a secular country, not Pakistan.
      Jinnah's words "Pakistan does not mean just independence and sovereignty. It means [an] Islamic ideology that we have to safeguard; it has been conveyed to us as a valuable gift and a treasure.”2 On November 2, 1942, while addressing students at Muslim University in Aligarh, in reference to the proposal to partition the Indian subcontinent, he said: “Let me live ac­cording to my history in the light of Islam, my tradition, culture, and language, and you do the same in your zones [of activity].

    *South Asia has now become defunct!*
    It is now known as the Indian Sub-continent which is part of the larger Indo-Pacific region.
    *Pakistan is now part of the AfPak region!*
    It is that troubled region which sits between middle east, central asia and indian sub-continent.

    Check out the title if the talk, all this fake has done is share her well hackneyed views on India, but never mention why this born a day later is so much successful. In India we have probably accepted and moved away from Partition. Listening to this historian and implementing her fancies will make us a historical nation.

  • @bharathfsf3686
    @bharathfsf3686 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Jinnah's defence for imposing Urdu in Bangladesh just shows he doesn't believe in diversity. By that logic the same thing could be said to India which has many languages and cultures. Jinnah intrinsically feared of having different cultures with different languages wouldn't be able to exist peacefully. To quote Jinnah, "It is a dream that the Hindus and Muslims can ever evolve a common nationality."
    Also, "Hindus and Muslims belong to two different religious philosophies, social customs and literary traditions. They neither intermarry nor eat together, and indeed they belong to two different civilisations which are based mainly on conflicting ideas and conceptions."
    In short Jinnah doesn't think a nation with diversity could function. Coupled to this Jinnah didn't had any strategy to further the new state of Pakistan which was made in 1947. This shows by lack of constitution till 1956 and Jinnah himself said, "The Constitution of Pakistan is yet to be framed by the Pakistan Constituent Assembly, I do not know what the ultimate shape of the constitution is going to be, but I am sure that it will be of a democratic type, embodying the essential principles of Islam."
