Dear All!
I was replying to a post regarding Pak flags in Assam, when I thought of starting a new thread on this topic. In-fact it was interesting to find certain similarities between the two. So far I have enumerated only 20 in the following. Lets see how many more others can find.
-

-

-

-

-

-

-

These events may not be in chronological order but they actually speak of the similarities of the two countries. Apart from them, there may be many more but I suppose, 20 will suffice at this moment. Now forgoing in view of the above;
Lets see when do we see Military rule in India.
Lets see when Paksitan gets a chance to take back Junagarh, Manawadar and Hyderabad.
Lets see when India disintegrates…
Regards for all of you.
