Why are Pakis so desperate to be different from Indians? The same people who despise Arabs (more than Indians) are claiming to be of Arab descent just to be different from Indians, lol.
Some Pakis are different from Indians such as Pashtuns, Balochs and Kashmiris (IMO Indian occupied Kashmir is not a legit part of India so they’re not Indian) but Paki Punjabis are the same Ethnicity as Indian Punjabis, Sindhis are similar to Rajasthanis, Urdu speaking people are similar to Hindi speaking people…
There’s some Urdu/Punjabi people who really are of Middle Eastern descent but they’re a minority. Punjabis tend to be a lighter brown than other Desis such as Gujiis whether they’re Muslim or Sikh, the lightness is not due to recent Arab/Irani migrations but rather the early Aryan invasions/migrations (depending on which theory you favour) to South-Asia, our region was racially mixed way before Arabs came here. Sikhs and Brahmin-Hindus look just like Pakistanis but I admit Khatri-Hindus do tend to look a little more “South-Indian”.
Just because Paki Punjabis are the same ethnicity as Sikhs doesn’t mean they have to feel affinity with them, Pakistani Punjabis are Punjabis in their own right, they can be proud of their wonderful culture and heritage without the need to ally themselves with Indian Punjabis. I understand that the two Punjabis have had bitter relations and this makes Pakis want to renounce their heritage.
I dont think khatri hindus looks like south indian. I am punjabi khatri and i dont think any of my relatives looks like south indian( not saying that it is bad if u look like them).yeh le latest pic taken for shaadi.com .
Skin color has nothing to do with race. It has to do with facial features/bone structure and hair
