I must honestly confess that since last decade i had come under the wrong impression that Bangladeshis were as an awaam more liberal, progressive and supportive towards minorities. I was no expert at politics in Bangladesh but a mix of Bangladesh being on the path of economic progress under a stable government of Sheikh Hasina and Pakistan going through its worst phase had influenced my judgement.
After the recent violent coup in Bangladesh in which the mobs desecrated their democratic institutions, acted like barbarians to even innocent animals and the way the jamati goons have targeted the hindus in Bangladesh with little to no genuine opposition from their military and liberal class, i am forced to rethink my opinion.
Pakistan has had its share of troubles.
Its made terrible mistakes in the past.
But they are a different class as an awaam and as a qaum. They would never do these things.
A Pakistan would go to war with Bharat and will give his life for the cause but a true Pakistani will never stoop to this level.
I remember when Tarek Farah used to say that Bengalis were looked down upon by both Bharatiya and Pakistanis. That Bharatiya army generals would have whiskey and gupp shupp with their Pakistani counterparts even while being at war with them and they would never bestow such hospitality to the Bengalis who were their partners. I now understand why. Bharatiyas and Pakistanis might wanna kill each other but we are cut from the same cloth we can’t hide that.
After all the wars, Imran Khan was always celebrated in Bharat as a hero. Its only after repeated regrettable events that we were forced to take a step back.
