India And Pakistan - Could we be Friends ?
Tweet
Recently India and Pakistan Celebrated their 64th Independence day. Its been 63 years that we both are apart from each other and every year the hatred between both the countries is increasing. We accuses Pakistan for all the wrong doing and same ways they accuse us.
But as an Indian National i had always wanted peace between our Countries, fighting for so many years has not yield anything for both of us, lots of Soldiers had died from both side, both the countries where many people don't get meals two times a day are spending huge amount of money on Defense Equipments just to fight against each other, is this justified ?
What i see is that Media also plays a crucial role in defining the relations between the countries, they can make or break. As the Common man does not have any straight access to whats going on in between two nations, they rely on Media for that. Today we don't have a responsible Media apart from few dependable ones. Most of the news are cooked up and served to common man, which only helps in adding hatred in our hearts against each other.
What i think is that we common people and the young generation want better relations between us and this is evident from this tweet by @farhanmasood who is a Pakistani Citizen on Pakistan's Independence Day.
Same ways on a Singing show called " Chhote Ustad " which is being aired on Star Plus Channel have brought Indian and Pakistani Kids on one Platform where one Indian and one Pakistani Kid had been paired into a team. You could see the friendship between kids, you can't tell who is Indian and who is Pakistani amongst them. Some of the Parents of Pakistani Kids were having tears in their eyes when they were praised by legendry Singer Asha Bhonsle even the Judges Sonu Nigam and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan have great comradery going between them.
Yes the people like Hafiz Saeed there and some of the hardliners here are not willing to come on terms of Peace and they never will, but if me and you are determined towards harmony and friendship between India and Pakistan nobody can stop us to do that.
It is true that Pakistan has more number of hardliners then ours and many there are Brain Washed on the name of Islam but if this Peace process is started and if each and every one of us will remove hatred against our Neighbouring country from their Heart then a time will come when these so called Hardliners will have no one to look after them.
In one of my earlier post i have stated Pakistan as one of the Countries where i intended to visit in future, i wanted to have a look at the country which was our part some years back, i wanted to know what people there think of us, how different is it from us i suppose we are very similar whether it is our Food,our language,terrain,our Colour, some extent our nature also. If we are so similar then we should not be fighting. If Peace prevails between us then My dream of visiting Pakistan will not be very distant from turning to reality.
Right now Millions of Pakistani People are affected by Floods there and same ways in our Leh many also have lost their lives and their homes because of Cloud Burst. India has shown a good gesture by providing some economic aid to Pakistan for flood victims. Both the countries should help each other in their grievances, If Pakistan acts against the culprits behind Mumbai Attacks it would be a huge step in gaining India's Confidence.

Dream I have !
Tweet
I have a dream and i am nurturing it from long time. Its always nice to have dream because you have something to look after and you work upon for its fulfilment. Now a days i see many people visiting foreign land which was not much prevalent before in our part, but as i see them going there i am hopeful that my dream one day will turn into reality. So by now u must have guessed what my dream is all about.
Yes to visit some places which are distant apart from us. So today i will write about some places which i have listed in my dream. And yes i would like to go there with my family which are integral part of my dream.
China country with most number of people and yet it is worlds fastest growing economy. Despite being our neighbour they are very different from us in most of the respect. They have hosted Olympics(We have to content with CWG), have put their man in Space(We rely mostly on Russia),have permanent seat in UN Security Council(We are begging for it),A family is allowed to have only one child(no stoppage here govt. has just contended with its slogan "Hum Do Hamare Do"). These are some of the things that strucked my mind for choosing China in my list.
Next on list is England
As Britishers has ruled us for many years they have left behind many monuments with Super Architecture and i love them so what better it would be to visit a place where all this started. As i am a firm believer of Mahatma Gandhi i would love to visit those places where he lived or studied. Charlie Chaplin my fav Comedian and Beatles my fav English Band had all lived there, what great time would it be to visit such a place!
Next Comes Russia
Imagine what would have happen if Russia was non existent ? From where we would got our Sukhois ? What would have happen to ISRO ? What about our Nuclear Reactors? Russia our dear long time friend(but i heard people are not so friendly there?) huge country and most compelling reason for being on this list is its Super Cold Climate. I like the Onion Shaped Domes The Kremlin on St. Petersburg Square in Moscow. When Russia comes to my mind some hysteria feeling crops up. This could only be solved after visiting Russia.
Next on line is Bhutan
Druk Yul is what Bhutan is called by its people. This small country in Himalayas was hiding from my mind until i stumbled upon this site which had a Bhutan Travelogue(Which you must also go through,highly recommended!) After going through it i realised what beauty Bhutan is and is easily reachable and not so heavy on your Pockets also. Bhutan is a natural beauty with a mystic touch to it. The best part is you don't need a Visa.
Next we have Mongolia
The reason why you find Mongolia here is because of Ian Wright presenter of Lonely Planet series on Discovery Channel. Seeing the show i came to know how beautiful Mongolia is. The best part what i liked is scarcity of people there(I am fed up of being with humans) so you could just relax and enjoy the vast grasslands there. There are not many cities there(except Ulan Bator that i know) all you see is empty area. Most of the people live Nomad life there.
Last but not the least Pakistan
Some 60 years ago we were same, a single nation but as we are two different nations now many changes must have occurred between us. Our language,culture,food,living are almost similar yet we both think so different. We both nations are now enemies for each other but i personally wants harmony between us. If we could live with each other for so many centuries then why can't now be friends. I have heard common people there are very friendly like us only. They say Lahore is like our Delhi and Karachi resembles Mumbai. Pakistan comes on number one position in my list where i dream of visiting.
So this is my dream now in front of you. I don't know how much time it will take for its fulfilment but i am highly Optimistic for it accomplishment.
