Reminiscence of the Past…

With the Victory of the Blues over the Greens on Wednesday, All that remained to be seen was the Streets of Mumbai. People could not be happier, even in the face of the finals that India plays, against Srilanka on the coming Saturday.

Pakistan has always been a nation looked at with negation; whether it is in Sports or any side of the commercial phase of global acceptance. Solely, the extremism and fundamentalism of the Single most large Religion after Hinduism and Christian-ism, Islam was deliberately fouled by many in the face of the world even without the repercussions from the global Muslim Community.

Although, India yesterday won the great Battle as described by many as a slap on the face of the neighboring country, my internal instincts consciously ask me only one question: “Are they really so different that we need to hate them at all times?”; singularity states that and, by default, None can deny this as well: Pakistan came out of a chunk from India during Partition and People had to take a side. Some chose India (today its 1.12 Billion), while the rest chose a country with the majority of their choice of religion for more security. The Rules were not meant for the common people of India or Pakistan to go against each and begin an era of consistent hatred. Kashmir became an attractive reason for dominance and till today, each and every discussion still holds the paradise in limbo on all counts. For the information of the reader, The Paradise as Kashmir may have been called at one point in time, It is no more a paradise but a silver check point always kept away from normal population lest any bombings take place on that side of the area.

Coming back to my regular topic on why the country neighboring to us should be so uneasy when it comes to a nation simply separated by it by Mountains, the reasons are not just newly fed, but well over an 100 years old, skewed and manipulated further over the years to make a bad situation to worse. No one wants a over fermented Curd, but at the same time, throwing it in someone else’s face does not justify the curds’ sourness either.

Post Victory on Wednesday, I could hear people shouting cries of Anti-Pakistan slogans rather being pro-Hindustan are victorious hail. There were slogans of innocents being called as Kangaroos being hunted and Terrorists being killed, which does not, even remotely, justify the fact that we are even trying to grow out of the fear of those world threats or that we even are ready to accept that not all are a threat and that not every threat comes from Pakistan alone; We have a ready proof to abolish this argument but what about the neighboring countries, the water countries which are killing innocents with the Drug Trafficking and Prostitution which is nearly neglected all the time in the measures to secure the premises from terrorism to creep in!

It surely makes sense that people soon grow out of the hatred to show a difference which even the Indian Military has been showing since the first war with the neighbors: The principal difference of Humanity and humility, even if for a nation which has been framed and proved itself as a menace to the globe as a whole but only through its fundamental and extremist idiots and not the entire population as a whole.
