Jang’s Disrespectful Attitude Towards Quran!

FAULT LINES EXPOSED!

 

The above headline is a classic example of the pro-Indian mindset of daily Jang (Urdu). The above title that is splashed across the main page has no relevance to Pakistan to the extent that it is given such publicity. However one needs to understand the subversive message communicated by this daily:

 

·         The saints and spiritual guides of Muslims and Hindus are one and the same thing with ‘no’ religious demarcation

 

·         Pakistanis and Indians are one cultural group who are split only in terms of religion

 

·         It is commendable to cover the shrine of “Baba Dileep Singh” with Quranic Verses. In others words, the holy grails of Islam can be used for “inter-faith harmony” by sacrificing them at the shrines of non Muslims. For the secular newspaper, the respect for Quranic Verses is less as compared to covering shrines of Muslims

 

“We Are One” – the famous slogan of the secular press in Pakistan is also promoted through publicizing cross border movies. This is not something which is involuntarily done, in fact it serves a subversive purpose of destabilizing the state of Pakistan by removing its separate identity and dissolving it with India.
