Dear guppies, mods,

In light of widening gap between different political parties/leaderships, we, the supporters are pulling each others shalwars/knickers/lungis which is throwing each other at opposite extremes. My humble request is that we stop calling each others as patwaris, jiyalays, niralays or whatever term we use for supporters of a particular party.

I have observed that using such words for each others is raising tempers in the forum. I request all of us to stay calm, we are all “Pakistan ki awam”, it is our right to demand service from ‘government’ as well as right criticism of government by opposition.

I would like to know what others feel and share their thoughts.

Thank you so much for reading this post, whether you agree to my words here or not, I believe it will start introspection of ourselves at least for the time being.

Regards.

Very good thread and POV. And I think everyone would agree with that. But very unfortunately, time after time such kinda requests are made either by new threads or reminders but apparently it doesnt work out in a long run.

There was a similar thread opened by Teggy earlier as well and everybody got off-track pretty quickly.

Either we tend to forget quickly or we are so emotional that it overcomes the wisdom and politeness that we all are supposed to keep especially when we are under the spotlight for being one of the most politically active nations.

Anywaz, lets hope this time it really turns out well and become NAYA PA forum for all of us

i’m sid_ny and I endorse Captain1’s call for no namecalling!! Cheers.
