Was Pakistan meant to be secular like India?

Re: Was Pakistan meant to be secular like India?

I compared data of both muslim castes and Hindu castes, reread it again:)
Abmedkar had his own stand on muslim casteism too:)

The main reason being that only rich and able could migrate, the migrants included well read class of doctor, engineers, graduates, leaving just enfeeble class behind.

Honestly, I get frustrated when I see this type of discussion about what kind of state Jinnah meant Pakistan to be.

Are the people of Pakistan so mentally feeble that we should be in any way enslaved to be aligned to Jinnah’s vision for all time? Are we not capable of deciding our own course of action?

Besides which, it is clear that Jinnah sat on both sides of the fence. He made speeches both in favour of secularism and in favour of Islamism, the latter despite some un-islamic lifestyle choices he is known to have personally made.

I believe that the two visions of Pakistan that Jinnah laid out reflects that he did not want to dictate one specific path for the country. He showed the Muslims of India all possible futures, and the fact that before he died he never dictated his personal, unified vision for the country means that Jinnah wanted to leave it up to his people to decide for themselves the path that they should follow.

When clock hit midnight when the world sleeps India awakes to…, was the first line of Nehru’s speech called tryst with the destiny, at midnight in was 1350 hrs in NewYork:D. this country was always ruled by kings and queens, we never had flair for democracy, even now none of the democratic institution has developed. Our politics is one man show be it pakistanis like Bhutto,Zardari,Imran or Indians like nehru,gandhi, mulayam etc.
