Re: Traditional Punjabi attire
Don’t look westwards - Indian Express
Razi U. Ahmed (July 11) makes the point that apart from issues like corruption, one major reason for the gap between Pakistani politicians and the masses is their Western style of dressing. While symbolism may not be everything, it helps to build the ‘we are one of you’ image, says Ahmed, citing the example of Indian leaders as well as Muhammed Ali Jinnah and Zulfikar Ali Bhutto. Though Jinnah was not fluent in Urdu, his style of dressing, especially the Jinnah cap, built a sense of national pride, just as the Westernised Zulfikar Ali Bhutto popularised the salwar kameez. Their traditional style helped them strike a chord with the masses.
