 Most people who follow South Asia
have either watched the Beating the Retreat ceremony at Wagah on the
India-Pakistan border on
video or been there in person. The farcical and choreographed
display by goose-stepping soldiers from India and Pakistan as they slam
shut the gates on the border crossing is such a staple for Western
journalists that it has almost become too cliched to write about.
But having been there myself for the first time last week, after 10
years of following India and Pakistan, I can’t resist throwing in my own
two cents’ worth.

February is the month of love. It’s time
to give and receive love, and to make peace with people around us.
Let us take this opportunity to look
beyond ourselves. Let us transcend our limitations and hesitations. Let
us take a chance to attempt to live in peace and harmony with our social
and natural environment.

Reclaiming shared cultures could resist the clamping of boundaries
and challenge the mutually destructive paths that Indian and Pakistani
states have imposed upon us as our destinies:
1947 was not just
about India’s Independence, it was an initiator of identities imposed
from ‘above’. The new postcolonial states ventured to redefine their
status through a mix of jingoism, the rewriting of history and the
whipping up of the nation-state mantra – essentially Western in concept
and practice. The journey of South Asian people therefore, has been
fraught with wars, hysteria and state diktat articulating itself
through prejudiced educational curricula and state-sponsored historical
half-truths.

Allama Iqbal (the writer of Saare Jahaan se Accha, Hindustaan humaara fame) has nicely put the expectation from people of Hind (Indo pak together), whom he was seeing as leaders of the world.. Sabaq perh phir sadaqat ka, adalat ka, shujaat ka Liya jayey ga tujh say kaam duniya ki imamat ka (Meanings: Sabaq = Lesson; Saqadat = Truth; Adalat = Justice; Shujaat = Bravery; Imamat = Leadership) The line also put down, the qualities a world leader should have. Forget about leading the world, do we have leaders who can lead their respective countries to progress, peace and prosperity? Since this website ipfc.info finds its root from the famous Orkut community, IPFC , I will be soon updating the response from members of that community later, to this article in the comment section. Readers are free to chip in their opinion as well. Be first to comment this article | Add as favourites (0) | Quote this article on your site | Views: 201 |

“Before 2005, my Nana was the main obstacle between my Nani [in
Pakistan] and her family [in India]. Now it’s the relationship
between India and Pakistan.”
I am a
37-year-old British Mirpuri Kashmiri. Four years ago, I came to
Pakistan with the sole intention of taking my Nani, my maternal
grandmother, across the Line of Control to meet her family on the
other side of Kashmir.
