In my childhood I would wonder why was there so much romanticism towards Pakistan from the “north”. I could never associate myself with any of their culture. Even in both telugu states you would see Indian Muslims having different cultural backgrounds from those of north/Pakistan. They speak telugu, watch telugu content,eat telugu cuisine( more of tomato Pappu,pickles, pesarattu etc), wear dhotis on a day to day basis. Maybe there would be sectarianism similarities but other than that I see zero connection.

Engagement should focus on getting Pakistan back on the FATF grey list unless it stops sending infiltrators across the LoC. That being said, I've never hated the Pakistani people and I hope they get their country to withdraw from PoK and give them a chance to prosper in peace. You can not only never win in Kashmir, you'll also be ending any chance of lifting millions of Pakistanis out of poverty if you continue to try.

[@umasrinivasan7079]

The cultural similarity which Pakistan has with India is more similarity with the north Indian culture. In fact the north Indian culture has far more similarities with Pakistan than South India. I am from south. In south generally Pakistan is regarded as an enemy nation and this feeling has got heightened after Kargil and Mumbai attacks. The general sentiment here is India makes overtures but Pakistan rebuffs it and follows it with an attack. So bahut ho gaya. Just concentrate on India's economic development and let Pakistan be. Modiji's and Jai Shankerji's indifference is in fact greatly appreciated here. In north however maybe because of historical connections there is a section which wants dialogue and friendly relations with Pakistan. A sentiment not shared by south.

[@sahilpooja]

Born and brought up in Mumbai I will confidently say that we don't have anything common with pakistan. Maybe people from Delhi, Punjab, Chandigarh and western uttar Pradesh may have similar culture with pakistan but india is a huge country with diverse culture and language. Even muslim from Karnataka and muslim from Delhi have different culture and customs.

[@SuccesswayGo]

Your content is great but why dont you make video on the Kashmir solution between pervez Musharraf and atal Vihari Vajpayee.

It would have already happened if Musharaf hadnt done Kargil. Pakistan had to concede even more during talks after that when Musharaf was in charge. We just like to celebrate dictators so we pretend like Musharaf was going to bring peace between India and Pakistan whereas he is the one who destroyed that possibility.

THE AMBANI STORY, RETOLD Mukhesh (the elder one) and Anil are the two sons of the Reliance Industries founder Dhirubhai Ambani. Upon the founder's demise, his business empire was divided between Mukheh and Anil. Probably out of the usual sibling rivalry, Anil was always jealous of his elder brother Mukhesh and tried to show him up. Mukhesh, on the other hand, put his nose to the grindstone and built up his empire to one of the largest companies in the world and also became one of the top five richest persons in the world. Meanwhile, Anil ran his business to the ground and declared himself in a London court to be bankrupt. Notwithstanding the sibling rivalry, Mukhesh bailed out his younger brother with a loan. See any parallel between India and Pakistan? India, the elder brother, is still waiting to be permitted to help Pakistan, the younger brother.

They compare rizvi/ziya ul with Modi which is idi*tic on it's own, does Modi advocates for taking up arms? Did he pass any economic law on ground to benifit Hindus not muslims?? Modi got only 36% votes which means whole India doesn't agree with him either.
