If a Pakistani is in the position of hiring an Indian or anyone from any background,… he/she acts objectively without being prejudiced, but it does not pan out to be true when scenario is reversed.
I have seen Indians act against a Pakistani or make a big fuss if any of the employer tries to recruit a Pakistani on any post by making negative comments of prospective Pakistani origin employee… no matter how qualified is Pakistani person.
Is this true?

no it is not
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
IT could depend upon the type of india. Sadly (or not?), the Indians are majorly represented here by either south Indians or most likely gujratis, and if you have ever worked with gujratis then you would know how a big lot of them are mela people. Ab to aik PM bhee bannay wala hai.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
I haven’t seen much of this. Why are pakistanis under-represented though? It’s not because Indians are blocking them, certainly not in Pakistan and certainly not abroad. Not every job has an Indian boss, you can look elsewhere for employement so what is the excuse then?
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
i haven’t experienced that. in my previous job, no one ever had issues with pakistanis being hired.

are you in soodiarabia, diwana pai? vat cuntry you living it in?
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
The people who are in majority tend to have relative freedom when they discriminate against others and this doesnt only happen between indians and pakistanis.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
The Indians have a greater sense of “you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours” - they will only help if they themselves gain from it. Pakistanis are more likely to welcome the help, but when they get what they want out of it … then it is “tum kon mein kon” - if we reciprocated more than may be would be helped out more.
This governs the mindset - Pakistanis will hire and keep people at arms length at all times - boss mentality.
Indians will hire for mutual farsightedness
As a result both are controversial - one may be better for actually looking at skill and expertise, but the other is not out to take advantage of you either. He just won’t trust you to reciprocate.
Or to look at it with rose tinted glasses …
Loyalty to ones own vs Loyalty to the business
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
It is true for every nation/Race, arabs/pakistanis(and then sub category >pashtuns-sindhis-urdu speaking-punjabis etc )/indians(tamils-kerala-bangalis etc)/bangalis etc.
My experiance is bit different though.An indian muslim shortlisted and pressed for my job, i negotiated the offer and he was the one fighting on my behalf although he first talked with me only after i was given initial offer letter.
i think it is a personal trait rather then a national trait.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
My brother once got a job in Kuwait, as an Indian Muslim (who only had professional relationship with him) told him about a relevant job and then fought his case (as he wanted a Muslim on that post instead of some one from his own country).

Indians will form trade unions/groups very easily and will start `pelting stones’ at their rivals.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
smell some southie karela here.
yes diwana it is true. but North indians are still a lot better than the south ones.
sach bola to bohat say dil jal jaeyin gay, nahi not of indians. but their pakistani friends on this forum.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
hmm…i was working in UAE..and didnt notice any such discrimation b/w indians and pakistani’s. Instead i have an example where it was the other way round.
My friend (Indian) working for a pakistani boss was facing issues and the boss made all plans to terminate her from the job and hire another pakistani lady.
but yeah, in cases where u live in an area/country where indians are in majority (especially south indians and gujju’s) then u may notice the discrimination. My fiance (he’s frm karachi) works in East Africa where there are majority indians, and has been facing the same issue. Infact he was even been told tht they do no hire pakistani’s at all. But yeah parchi per job dene se kon mana karega… 
so he’s finally working there for almost 2 years now.
(btw south indians / malbaris can be a pain even to other non-south indians :P…trust me they discriminate within indians as well. )
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
This is the first time I’ve heard anything like that.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
Likewise
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
i’m a little surprised by those blaming it off on south indians. do you even know any indians? if anything it is your fellow north-indians, especially punjabis and hindiwalay, who have this comical love-hate relationship with pakistanis. these are the people who will be the nicest to you as well as by far the meanest. south-indians don’t really have any personal family tales of grudges and kinship with pakistan to be judgemental by, most have nothing in common with pakistanis, they could be mexicans to them.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
true in most cases
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
I respectfully disagree with the premise of the title. Not ALL Pakistanis objectify. In fact a vast majority probably dont.
Re: Why do Pakistanis act objectively but not the Indians?
Came here doing search on Pakistan. Liked the community. So stuck around. There hardly was discussion of Pakistan growing up. Left India way before tensions flared up.
It is the uniqueness of this site that keeps me here. And the fact overwhelming no of folks are decent.
Also for my generation this concept of hate towards pak is foreign. Probably main reason is internet. Where certain segments foster hate and divisiveness. This thread has a reference to Pakistanis who would get offended if truth is told abt indians..
