Based on 1951 Census of displaced persons, 7.226 million Muslims went to Pakistan from India while 7.249 million Hindus and Sikhs (and very small amounts of Muslims) moved to India from Pakistan immediately after partition. About 11.2 million or 78% of the population transfer was on the west, with Punjab accounting for most of it; 5.3 million Muslims moved from India to West Punjab in Pakistan, 3.4 million Hindus and Sikhs moved from Pakistan to East Punjab in India; elsewhere in the west 1.2 million moved in each direction to and from Sind. The initial population transfer on the east involved 3.5 million Hindus moving from East Bengal to India and only 0.7 million Muslims moving the other way.
why there is no political party for Mohajirs (who migrated from pakistan) in india ,most of the refuges in india are very rich , they are really hard working people and contributed a lot to the society, they came to country with empty hands and they have a decent lifestyle now
the sameway people migrated to pakistan, but why they have problems
Because people of India are not dominated by feudals and actually respect the migrants instead of showing punjabigardi at every level.
Oh please, I am sure you will have no problem proving us wrong and shri yourself right by moving to the paradise once and for all...... I am sure there is Shri Modi and many like him to take care of shri yourself with open arms. Please do write from time to time GS will miss all the luffs and good times.
shame on you for making fun of APC and APDM... 38 parties spent a lot of money to send people to London and house them in expensive hotels etc, I mean it does not matter that no one knows the name of the 38 parties, but 38 partiies spent so much time effort and money to get together and brush aside their differences to condemn the current govt, to work together, and also vowed never to work with MQM again. how dare you sir, how dare you make fun of that group. How dare you question the unity of that group of our patriots!!!!
hmmmm okay PPP kinda brushed asside APC-
so where was I .. yeah 38,, err I mean 37, yes 37 parties...spent all that time effort and money, and u thankless lot are making fun of them?
so what if they could not hold their first rally? so what if the 'brains' behind the operation called it defunct just weeks after it was formed, it is not defunced, it is very funced, it is totally funced up, it was funced up from the start!!!!!
Well I think sharnarti from Pakistan spread all over India and they were very few in number compared to local people. Furthermore they found their own people (language wise) across the border and mingled with them.
Unfortunately in Pakistan, this was not the case, people from UP, Rajhistan, CP, Hyderabad, Madras and Bihar - they all turned up in Hyderabad and Karachi and their ratio as compared to the one going across the border was higher. For many reasons - fault of their owns as well as faults of their hosts, they could not mingle with the local population.
Because people of India are not dominated by feudals and actually respect the migrants instead of showing punjabigardi at every level.
u are a sick mind no doubt about that... now who told muhajir of Pakistan to sell their land from all over Pakistan and do another hijrat to Karachi.
People went to India was clever and they did get mixed with local inhabitant, so did the muhajir who settled in Punjab... but Muhajir ( not all, only MQM one) thought that 95% of Pakistani population is suppressed so why not segregate a portion out of it and lets make our bread and butter from that.
And thats how MQM came into existance, see now MQM is in power for almost 5 years, they normally dictate terms to Mushy, but they never spoke about the Pakistanis who are in Bangladesh, they never spoke about the rights of muhajirs, as per my info, common Muhajir ( live the rest of the nation) is still suffering as he was 5 years ago and there is no hope for a change....
and as this person mentioned about punjabgardi, if punjabis are that bad, why the hell they opened their offices in punjab??? now that People Punjab, rejected them after seeing what they have made Karachi, these MQM are again spreading haterdness against Punjabies.. what a pitty... no difference between them and religios fanatics...
mahajirs should have always understood that when they migrate to a new country they have to give up language and culture and adapt to the new homeland. Unfortunately, many mahajirs like liaqat ali khan didn't want to give up their old nawabi culture- I guess Liaqat Ali khan didn't like Punjabis and Pashtoons in general and he expressed it many a times.
By the way Lakkis kakay, it is not right that the people who migrated to India didnt face discrimination. Sikhs who migrated to east Punjab(the immigrants formed majority there) did face discrimination at the hands of Brahmins and as a result of that, Sikhs demanded Khalistan(Land of the pure in Eastern Punjabi) to separate from Brahmin-majority India.
another pronlem is that the political representation of Mohajirs in the form of MQM is unethical and politically naive. I have absolutely no problem with Mohajirs, but most Mohajrs do not heed the fact that controverting MQM's political agenda is not the same as being anti-Mohajir. There are several problems with MQM....
1) MQM's unwillingness and inability to accept criticism even in the mildest form
2) The only way MQM fights resistance (esp in Karachi) is by trying to subvert it through force
3) They have raised Altaf Hussain to a nearly prophetic level, and any criticism on Altaf Hussain is considered a 'racial slur' on Mohajirs
4) MQM's desire to bank on such ideals, as creating and maintaing differences among people
MQM certainly can never emerge as a mainstream political party with such mentality, and Altaf Hussain knows it very well. Thus its political philosophy that involves violence and hatred will let it have few (but strong) supporters, as in the case of Shiv Sena in India, National Front in France etc.
