“Wine breaks my resolve, resolve breaks my cup; broken cups lay in heaps all around me, here.”NEARLY FOR 60 YEARS WE HAVE BEEN PART OF THE PROBLEM…
Fifty plus years of Indo-Pak talks are little red with heaps of shattered talks, resolves and intentions. Nehru-Liaqat talks in fifties, Shastri-Ayub talks in sixties, Indira-Bhutto talks in seventies, Rajiv-Benazir talks in eighties...
We are the India Pakistan Friendship Club (IPFC). We are a group of people committed to the cause of India Pakistan Friendship, an ever growing community of netizens, with real life extension and influence. We are present on the web through our website http://ipfc.info and a set of communities/groups on the social networking sites like Orkut and Facebook, changeorg, TakingItGlobal etc.. IPFC@Orkut constitutes more than 100,000 IPFCians (as we call each other).
Welcome to India Pakistan Friendship Club
RUK JAAYENGE NEHI KAHI HUM HAAR KE…KAL YEH JAHA BADLAYENGE HUM…YEH WAADA RAHA HUMARA!
It's been long since our immoral politicians, generals and religious bigots, have cheated us. Lets make a new beginning with new friends...let's get over our pre-conceived notions and convictions and write a new chapter in the history of Indo-Pak relations.
Why shouldn't we be friends? Lahore is nearer to Delhi than Washington or London. We look alike, we have similar cultures, and we speak the same language. We have been united in our struggle for freedom. But somewhere we got misguided misled and we became prey to the machinations of an outsider.

IT was a small albeit a significant gesture by those who
took out a procession at the historic Jantar Mantar in New Delhi to
express their solidarity with the people of Pakistan in their hour of
challenge from terrorists.
It is a coincidence that
thousands of people demonstrated on the same day at the Mall in Lahore
to warn terrorists, some of whom had attacked a police academy.
In
both countries the message was that the people would not allow bombs
and bullets to defeat freedom and fraternity. Without any arms or
security the participants of the demonstrations have made it clear that
determined people are a far bigger force than all the gun-toting
fundamentalists put together.

Peer’s ‘Curfewed Nights’ brings home the myriad nuances and human-ness of ‘the
Kashmir issue’ – the main reason why, we are told, Pakistan and India can’t
exist in peace.
Despite the
hostilities, it speaks for the changing times that Peer was able to recently
visit Pakistan, staying with Saad Haroon, a satirist he had met in New York
(got the visa because a Pakistani diplomat liked his book). Friends hooked him
up with Sabeen Mahmud who runs The Second Floor, T2F, the internet
café-cum-community space in Karachi where you can hang out over music or a
board game, browse the bookshelves or imbibe the art work and mural on the
brick walls. Despite the short notice, the place was packed – with mostly young
people, like Peer, Mahmud, and Haroon themselves. The event provided a rare
opportunity for meaningful interaction without the public posturing, ‘national’
positions and one-upmanship that the mainstream media reflects and reinforces,
overwhelming the shades of grey.

Long back we discussed it on our Orkut Community about a Theme song or Anthem for India Pakistan Friendship Club (IPFC). All of us wanted an orginal motivatinal song written, composed, sung by Fellow IPFCian.
Now the moment has arrived.
We are pleased to inform that the motivating song "No Saazish, No
Jang" of Shahvar Ali Khan has been adopted for the theme of IPFC.
Call it Theme Song of IPFC, IPFC Anthem or official song of IPFC. This song is simply superb in lyrics and music and truely meant to be called so.
We are really lucky to have Shahvar Ali Khan in IPFC as an ambassador of peace and friendship. IPFC is proud to have a Gem like Shahvar.
Listen to the music, song "No Saazish, No Jang" and feel motivated for the cause and spread the message.
Please download the song from Shahvar's website http://www.shahvaralikhan.com/
Please spread the Word - "No Saazish, No Jang"
PEACE
