Re: Ancestors of Pakistanis were NOT Hindu!
THose who converted to Islam were mostly from the lower caste.People from the Upper caste also embraced islam but mostly the lower caste became muslim.Islam appealed to the lower caste more then the upper caste because there is no caste system in islam and in islam everyone is equal.
Pakistanis of punjab and sindh almost look same as the people of haryana punjab dehli gujrat marashtra rajastan the areas which are closed to our provinces and we share borders with.the people of NWFP and Balochistan are different from indians and we dont have any one who look like the people of south indian states. The people of bangaldesh(former east pakistan) look like the people of assam and bengal.But muslims in all parts of india will look different from indians as well because those who came from arabian countries,afghansitan turkey iran are different from other indians for example the rohilla nawabs or the nawabs of rampur in UP they will look much like pathans then indians. many mahajirs are also from these families thats why they look different from hindus of that region.
