Re: Is India turning fascist under Modi?
No we as a nation are not as bad as India, we are gradually and successfully trying to get out of what India is rapidly falling into. Do you see the point?
Your whole comparison of India and Pakistan is shoddy and clutching on straws. In regards to Afghan Jihad, JI’s link with AQ or any other extremist organisation is hardly a surprise. Pakistan as a state had been so lax on so many things, no one can deny that. For instance, no party in India would have survived another day had their funding and training links were established with ISI- and look at the level of tolerance and acceptance still shown to MQM in Pakistan. Do you see this? Pakistani ‘intellectuals’ spewing venom against their own Army and then getting awards in Bengladesh is vehemently defended in some quarters. Indians would not have tolerated this.
In regards to Rana Sanaullah - who is to say he was elected by the people considering the whole doubt on the validity and reliability of 2013 elections, and in fact all Pakistani elections! Religious parties were also known for forcing people to vote for them whereas India always claimed to have much fairer democratic system than Pakistan. So how do they explain the ever lasting power and influence of Shiv Sena, rise of Hindutava and Modi becoming PM?
You have conveniently implied that minorities in Pakistan suffer the same fate as minorities in India. Firstly, it is incorrect, secondly, in actual fact Muslims (and in particular Sunnis) had been the biggest victims religiously motivated violence and terror.
