But if they use Pakistani instead of Paki, then its not offending. If here we can call a person from ‘Lahore’ as Lahori, Chinyot as Chinyot, Hyderabad as Hyderabadi, then why do people from Madras consider it offending when they are called Madrasi. Is there a hidden (not known t outsiders) meaning in term Madrasi. Apart from that we commonly hear Mumbaya in bollywood, why its not considered offending like Madrasi?

Paki is derogatory term used for British Pakistani by red neck population of England.
