Lahore: Used to be city of Lively hearts | Life in Lahore 1960's-1990's | ft Salman Rashid

[@AmitChaudhery]

My mother was born in Lahore in 1929. I have heard many stories of Lahore from her until she passed away in 2022. My mamaji studied at FC College (Foreman Christian College), my masi at Kinniard College...Davis Road, Nurshah Begum Road, Gulmerg, Anarkali Bazar...Ma never forgot Lahore

My parents moved to Lahore from Bombay in 47. Had a memorable struggling time and my older 4 siblings still remember those times. They stayed mostly in model town. They have sweet beautiful memories of Lahore and the people.

[@ranjanoberoi4255]

Thanks to internet.Today I can see you live on my mobile.I am Lahore born now settled in Delhi since Partition. LAHORE had a great culture very carefree no tension.Lahore had great food.With people migrating from all over,the culture has changed for the worse. BEST WISHES TO SALMAN SAHIB FROM DELHI.

[@naeemullahshah]

I am Lahori for 14 Generations, We praised Lahore too much and too generously, which attracted people from all over. The result is that Non Lahoris, destroyed Lahore. However, if you come acroos a real Lahori, your day is made.

[@SuperMickey1967]

Another memory of Lahore from 1985 is on the back of a motobike with a friend and travelling around racecourse Park and other areas. I can still remember the fragrance of the flowers under the moonlight, and the beautiful pre-winter weather of October

I visited Lahore in 1985 in the summer vacations of my intermediate exams. I fell in love with Lahore. Especially the Lake and area around it. I wish i was born in Lahore too and experienced it as a child. The only confounding variable was the presence of the new age politicians with their ill gotten wealth alongwith generals who are after the same. I had an uneasy feeling about it, and now in 2024 i can say with confirmity that i saw it coming.

My Dadi was born in 1927 in Misri Shah, Lahore, near Nakhuda Chowk. Throughout my childhood, I heard stories of her early years, both before and after the partition. My Dada used to work on Mall Road. I heard that my ancestors were Sikh and moved from Amritsar to Lahore long before the partition. This conversation took me back to those times. My Dadi passed away in 2019. I miss her. ♥

I was lucky enough to visit Lahore in Feb 2006.Watching the test match was just an excuse and watching Lahore was the reason. Enjoyed my stay extensively but just one complaint in could not buy news paper except on last day I could lay my hands on it from a shop that sold samosas,news papers and magazines.I gained 3kg in 9days.Food Street was just outrageously good.

The partition of India impoverished both sides of Punjab. Without each other we are both less diverse and poorer in our thoughts, worldviews and culture. Pakistan side has slowly lurched toward a very closed-minded form of Islam and its politics have declined. The Indian side has become dominated by thick-headed “jatt” culture and a closed-minded form of Sikhism or Hinduism.

As a Lahoree I am totally agreed with him. The culture and atmosphere of wonderful Lahore is destroyed by the people who came from small cities and towns. Now I also avoid to go outing in my own city because there are other people and there actions.

[@punjabimundaUK]

It doesn't matter which small town or city people come from. One they are in Lahore they become a Lahori... that's the magic of Lahore. To me a real Lahori is one that speaks in Punjabi and not an urdu speaker. Once you lose your language you no longer are part of that fabric.

Narrow Streets, Small Houses, Unclean Streets Gandgi, Mailay Kuchailay Unhygienic Restaurants. Best Shopping You Lahoris Had Were Panorama Centre, Purani Anarkali, Narkali & Ichhra. 2. Its Money & Wealth Drom People Of Small Towns That Introduced Lahoris To What A 1 Kanal House Looks Like. Its Their Money That Help Build Liveable Housing Societies With Wider & Cleaner Streets With Big Houses. Its Their Money That Help Build Big Shopping Malls & Best Restaurants.

Till we don't learn , why and how this strip called Pakistan was created We will remain lost Jinnah Poonja Chap, whom the unwashed call Quaid e Azam, was a Hindu from village Panali in Gujrat His house is can be seen on Google His grandfather was Premji Lal, father. Poonja Lal Poonja was a very clever chap, initially English tried to pass him as Ismaili Muslim and said he was born in Wazir Mansion near Ismaili Jamat Khana in Kharadar But Ismaili Imam, refused to give a fake certificate that he was Ismaili So in, 1900 it was decided to call him a Sunni Muslim and name was changed to Mohammad Ali Rest history we know how with help of English and Hindus who were also in game, Poonja created two nation theory He got 1.5 million Muslims Slaughtered Handed India to Hindus Hindus, never had any say in ruling India Till 1947, Muslims ruled over most of India. Whole of Punjab, Bengal, Assam, Kashmir, 35 Muslim States, in Central India, Hyderabad with half India wealth, Bijapur etc, were all under Muslim rule Muslim culture centres like, Delhi, Lucknow, Agra, Kanpur, Hyderabad etc Were also handed to Hindus, Muslims were confined to a small strip they call Pakistan This strip was to be a buffer, between Russia and India, Unwashed mob called Pakistanis will not comprehend till they read history of Great Game, which started in 1840s

This is an eye opener.people have poor knowledge of this.Must be circulated and let people make their own judgement.i am no fan of Jinnah at all.he connived with British to create a state not viable at all to this day.See the state of so called Pakistan. Pakistan could have been a successful state had the judiciary been judicious and not distributed Hindu &Sikh property like bananas.its sad state.its actually a state of the armed forces which holds it together.(Barrel of a gun) The idea of Pakistan was obliterated when the massacre of innocent Muslim Bengalis took place by the army.thank you Jinnah and Zulifiqar Bhutto for the massacre.we have new players Nawaz and Zardari which is icing on the cake!!! And finally another play boy cricketer Imran khan turned politician a ball thrower,not knowing what he talking about. He has this idea of a state of Medina of 1400 years ago which he wants to create in Pakistan.what a mess Pakistan is.
