Hardly. Even in the marginal areas where the two countries share some linguistic similarities, the prespecitves are completely different. India is moving into modernity and Pakistan is moving back into theocracy and tribalism. The two countries, for the most part, are completely different. Most Indians in the North would much rather be associated with their Southern countrymen than with Pakistan.

Interesting that you say that. If you remember all the articles written by Indian journalists in Pakistan during India’s cricket tour here, they all said that they held a similar view to the one that you just expressed before they entered Pakistan.

Once in, they all said that India and Pakistan felt almost indistinguishable and that the fears they had of a country slipping into theocracy and tribalism were shown to be unfounded.
