Re: Anti-Pakistanism in India
It is pretty dumb i agree. The charges were dropped and it happened during an election period when that particular state government was trying to act tough. There’s no excuse for it. Still acts by authorities don’t prove that India or Indians in general are becoming more anti-Pakistani just like silly decisions by the Pakistani government don’t reflect on Pakistani people. It shouldn’t be given as an excuse to hate Indians/India in general rather than just hate the actions in this case. I’ve posted some positive stories above if anyone is interested in that. What do you think of a family being wary of having a heart transplant because the heart in question is of Indian origin? Is having no life better than having an Indian heart? If, God forbid, someone you knew needed a transplant and the only donor in question was an Indian would you be reluctant because the organ is of Indian origin?
I am not anti Indian in the slightest. I recognize that most people in either state are too busy surviving to care about political point scoring. However, there is an element which deals in “its worse over there” which is pointless.
