Re: Ethnic divide hits city hospitals
I gave you the answer. You asked what Sindhis think about what is going on in Karachi, and I told you that Sindhis of Karachi (you can call them 'outsiders' or whatever) give their answer, regarding what they think of the situation in Karachi, from what they vote during election. The answer what I gave is true unless you do not accept the reality and consider Sindhis living in Karachi as not Sindhis but outsiders (as you showed that by calling them outsiders). Anyhow, it does not matter if you or anyone does not like to accept them as Sindhis, because they are what they believe.
Well, did I write anywhere that you questioned the Pakistaniat of any Pakistani? Of course you could not, as there is no such thing as Pakistaniat, or is it? If there would have been such thing as Pakistaniat then there would not be anyone living in Bangla-deshi camps calling themselves Pakistani, or would they?
Fact of Pakistan is that, Sindhis are Pakistani because they are Sindhis and Sindh is in Pakistan, not because they are Pakistanis and Sindh is part of Pakistan. Same can be said about Punjabis, Balochs, Pakhtuns, Sarakis, Hazarvis, Kashmiris, etc.
True, nobody cares where they came from, but that is India and in India it does not matter. In India, no one would have written what ‘Sindhis’ think when ‘outsiders’ are fighting in Karachi, would they?
In India, there is no such thing as domicile, jobs divided according to domicile (or ethnicity), or people ‘officially’ getting recognised by provinces they belong to. If Pakistan was India then there would have been no camps of so-called Pakistanis in Bangla-desh, and whole generation lost their life thinking themselves as Pakistanis when they are not (because Pakistaniat does not exist). Situation in India is that, when Uganda thrown out Indians after 100s of years, India accepted them as Indian and took them in. Can’t you understand that?
Can’t you understand that need for Muhajirs settled in Sindh to first become Sindhi than Pakistani arose after fiasco of East Pakistan, when they realised that there is no such thing as Pakistani in Pakistan, and that in Pakistan it is cared who a person is and what province that person belongs to. So Muhajirs discarded all their identities and adopted Sindhi identity. It was necessary to mentally accept that reality, as if (Khuda-na-Khuasta) situation like Bangla-desh ever happen in Sindh, Muhajirs would not look towards Pakistan first as Pakistani and take up living in camps, but would go with Sindh all the way as any Sindhi, as their future is tied to Sindh, not Pakistan.
Well, what you wrote is exception derived from saying of ‘one lady’, something you are trying to apply to whole community; and that is wrong. Anyhow, your question had no relation with what you wrote above, as for you, in your post you showed concept that there are ‘Sindhis (natives)’ and ‘outsiders (Muhajirs and Pakhtuns)’ in Sindh, calling a community that is ‘Sindhi’ in every way as outsider. Read your post again … here it is:
If you called Pakhtuns outsiders than I would have understood, as when they call themselves Pakhtuns it shows they believe they belong to Pakhtun-khwa, but what about Muhajirs when you called them outsiders, so where you think they belong to, Moon or Mars?
