Safar bhai,

Again your are only concentrating on just one clinicality that is that there are other people than pakhtuns living in nwfp. why should this rule only apply to one province only? When you saying that punjab and sindh is NOT an ethnic name doesn’t change the facts. Because it IS an ethnic name. In punjab the majority of people say they are punjabis and they are proud of their language and culture. In sindh and baluchistan it is not much different.
One can easily find your true motives in your earlier reply where you say to have encountered racism from pakhtuns! People who discriminate against you are ignorent and wrong. But your wish as an individual(or maybe thousands others) doesn’t weigh against the RIGHT of millions.

You are wrong to say Punjabi is an ethnic name. Punjab is a geographical name meaning ‘land of five rivers’. Interestingly it is a Persian name.

‘Alaqa Jat’ or ‘Rajputana’ would be an ethnic name like ‘Pakhtoonkhawa’.

There are millions of US, not a few thousand. Peshawar, Kohat, Dera Ismail Khan, Kohistan, Hazara. There is already too much racism by Pakhtoons against others in Frontier. Similar to racism by Pashtoons in Afghanistan which has broken up Afghanistan. One can easily see the Pakhtoon-centric policies of ANP which are blatantly racist and that is their agenda. They have always been against Pakistan even when it is the ‘Dal Khor’ Pakistan army which is saving them right now.

It is the right of the federation to protect us from becoming local ethnic fiefdom of AnP.
