I'd read it if you have a Sanskrit translation

What has gotten into Atta-ul-Haq Qasmi? The guy used to be funny.

Re: an amazing article but for those who can read urdu

Ok read the whole thing. I know he is being sarcastic, but if Pakistanis are being profiled in US and Europe, I doubt the Pakistani govt can do much.

Re: an amazing article but for those who can read urdu

He tried too hard to be funny by way of sarcasm. Never a good idea. Sarcasm works best when its subtle.

Re: an amazing article but for those who can read urdu

Cool article... :)

Qasmi was made the ambassador to Norway during the tenure of Nawas Shareef despite the fact that he was not a career diplomat. Perhaps he was a good friend of PM. When the general sacked that government he had to come back. No wonder he finds it hard to agree with the present government.

He should stick with poetry.I bet Mian saab would have done the same thing what president musharraf did.These guys just want a label or tag attached with them that says atta ul haque qasmi famous poet intellectual columist analyst diplomat etc etc.drawing room politics wil not help.

Re: an amazing article but for those who can read urdu

Sarcasm yes but he used it nicely. A good read. It was nice the way he brought the massei community community into the argument when stating, how the hamkumat is pressing foreign students who have come to pak for deeni taleem to leave the academies.

"Mujhay batur pakistani iss ammar par fakhar hai kai hamari hakumat mazhabi taasubh sai bilkul paak hai." wah kya line hai, rite where it hurts hain na president saab.
