Jang (Urdu) Deems Pakistan’s Independence As An Accident!

Source: Jang February 2, 2001

 FAULTLINES EXPOSED!

The above lead story was published by Jang Urdu and is no less than a kicker designed to stand out from the rest of the page tempting the reader…there are two main ideas behind this article…

 

Firstly it relates the defeat of the Vajpayee government to the Babri Masjid episode

 

Secondly the Indian opposition approved the ruling against the three ministers involved in the Babri Masjid affair

 

However the newspaper fails to give any plausible explanation regarding the relevance of the above article that has been blown up to its hilt! However the implied meaning of publishing this newsline is to

 

·         Influence the Pakistanis that Indians despite being a Hindu majority are compassionate and considerate towards Muslims and have passed the ruling against the three ministers involved in the Babri Masjid

 

·         That there is no religious discrimination in India as compared to “fanaticism’ of Pakistan

 

·         That the Indians are very much careful about the worshipping places of other religions

 

·         That even if Pakistan were not there, the Hindu Majority would have considered the Muslim culture and values the same way.

 

The above feature is no less than a Pakistan-India Confederation Propaganda!
