mirch uncle.. the war of 1857 was a mutiny and not a war of independence.

that’s the way its portrayed in pakistani history classes because they like to teach myths more than history.

on the topic at hand… doesn’t bother me one bit what he names his company. We are quite selective in our outrage aren’t we? After all we happily name institutions and missiles after those who attacked the subcontinent as long as they were muslim.

@diwana

^Are you trying to say East India Company was Hindu company back then?

Naming missiles is very different than naming a company like this.

Yes agree with title: Had to be an Indian to revive that company. Even a British person would not have thought of it!

@chacha_Ghalib

are you trolling? your posts seem to be right after and in response to mine

eh? come again? which part of my post did you get that out of

of course it is… the difference being the missiles are named after muslim conquerers

OK. Maybe you did not mean it but it came out this way.

East India company was a British company. Not Indian. Not related to hindu or muslims.

You gave example of missiles which are named against India with the context of muslim warriors. So two opposite religions.

Giving example of missiles were wrong in two ways.

1- EIC was related to neither muslims nor hindus. A third party. An Indian hindu decided to make his company named after it.

2- But missiles are the issues between Pakistan and India with names after muslim warriors. It has been discussed before why Pakistan feels good for naming these missiles.

What is the excuse for this Indian?

P.S. I think I know why you used the word mutiny.
