What is Pakistan & Pakistani society? Idea of a nation ft Dr Nadeem Omar Tarar

[@subodhsingh9533]

Humble salute to Tarar Saab for his humble approach to understanding of Pakistan.

[@manzar42]

What an interesting talk, Dr Tarar speaks well, I agree with almost everything he says. In my view making a country in the name of religion was an unwise thing. But now that pakistan exists, in order for it to flourish we need to accept and value difference. It is a very serious question that Mr Gurmani asks but watching his facial expressions makes it interesting to watch the videos. The screen lights up when he smiles. Mr Gurmani please smile more!

[@TimesGlo]

Thanks Manzar!

[@RakeshSharma-bs2kd]

Please don’t blame 5 different languages a reason for the failure of Pakistan. The real reasons are its people and too much importance to religion.

[@nikhildeshmukh6221]

Hope you are not typical north indian hindutva guy teaching pakistani to stay away from religion.

[@endeavour1349]

Unless diversity is embraced, nationalism is very shallow. What makes a nation is the comfort and ownership of each of it components, by their natives. Nationalism is definitely an imagined construct. Tagore warned of it way ahead of time. But no one has paid attention to demerits of its imposition in the subcontinent.

[@vinaydhopeshwarkar4567]

He is totally confused on Culture topic, he was not able to talk firmly on the topic

[@endeavour1349]

I think he has a wider picture. It's travel that makes us realise our misdirected narratives, especially in the subcontinent.

[@hotfun07]

It is effect of Pakistan Studies Indoctrination.

[@randeepjasrotia2262]

Islamic nation theory was totally demolished with the separation of Bangladesh.

[@vijaysontyal2788]

i think the guest has so less knowledge about india, he only see india through social media or media only. india is way more complex than he thinks. indian society is so diverse that one ideology (hindutva as he said) cant dectate it. hinduism itself is so diverse and i think thats what makes india a plural society though the ruling party follows a pearticular ideology doesnt mean all the people of india are the followers of that ideology. as the guest seeing India. the main difference between india and pakistan is there was not real pushback for the dictatorship in pakistan and in india whenever one ideology or person tries to dictate india, the society fight backs to it. in case of Indira gandhi in emegency or in 2024 elections of india. so please sir dont say india is same as pakistan. the foundation of pakistan is based on relegion, singularity, wheres the foundation of india is based on pluralism no mater what kind of party is in power the essence of pluralism will always be there. unless the foundation of india is changed. and the fact is no one can change it. and the guest think cultural nationalism is separatist movement in india. the movements were about cultural representation and identification not about separation except Kashmir (it has another angles like pakistan, relegion only in kashmir valley not in entire kashmir state). Faisal Gurmani bhai please bring indian rational scholar to your podcast to know more about indian society and please open an india specific institute to study and learn about indian society, culture, traditions, geography, languages, different parts of india. so far only mujeeb afzal sir came close to understand india but he is more focussed on BJP, RSS there is more than a political ideology of a particular party in india.

[@rakadus]

This oft repeated quote of "moth eaten Pakistan" needs to be stopped. Pakistan had and has even today the largest contiguous stretch of fertile arable land in Asia. Enough to have become a "food superpower". If a tiny place like Netherlands can have such a large food processing industry, just imagine how much Pakistan can do.

[@ukhyarbunere1698]

If, but, if, but is not the answer

[@endeavour1349]

Not moth eaten, definitely not, mismanaged by a stunted vision for sure.

[@snathan3198]

Waited until 13:41, hindu hatred started coming out of Tarar and I stopped watching. This is solely the reason this pkstn will never reform. Mr Tarar is NO different from any jihadi, shame on such munafique people!

[@TimesGlo]

There was nothing like hindu hatred in whole discussion and we are strictly against any form and manifestation of hatred. This platform’s moto is to bridge the gap between intellectuals and common people across borders. Actually, your own prejudice has stopped you watching this video. At the end of the podcast we even discussed how state couldn’t protect their non Muslims.

[@subhadippaul4494]

problem is they dont even understand it is Hindu hatred !

[@commonman7730]

😂😂 Bhai Y disturbing them Let them be as they're

[@uz7098]

It is not hindu hatred but I think they are just misinformed about India. Pakistanis have been constantly indoctrinated by their media about the "Evil Hindu Nationalistic BJP" They don't realize that Hindus have no problem with any religion. Hindus are not fanatics. But radical Islamists have been causing disharmony in every part of the world. And when these radical islamists are handled strictly as per the law, they start playing their minority victim card.

Problem is much deeper than 50 or 60 lakh have left the country, crores living there also think when and how they can leave. In such an enviornment no good development can happen.

Are Tarar sahab aap jarur Jatt ho, yaha India me bahut Hindu Jatt hai with Tarar surname

[@hotfun07]

For Mr. Tarar, being Jatt, Jatt culture shall suffice 😂

Set of rules for people to facilitate social integration at a homogenous patch of land may be called religion.Patch of land indicates and is dependent on climatic conditions and decides fooding habit.The moment any word is missed, it starts to loose its implications and if left unaddressed,for a long time it is misimplicated by not one but many.

[@MDVaashir]

Pakistan was formed for muslims. We are muslims because we follow Islam. So our culture needs to follow the tenets of Islam. Islam makes clear distinction between kufar and Muslims. Hindu culture like music and dance are discouraged in Islam. So Pakistani culture cannot be the culture of the Hindus.

[@TimesGlo]

There is a clear distinction between Islam and religious practices. Promoting hate against non Muslims is something Islam never teaches its followers. You are filled with hatred and bigotry!

[@rakadus]

​@@TimesGloGood try!

[@asadaziz6429]

So funny.

[@MDVaashir]

@@TimesGlo I have not said anything hateful against other religions. Just said that dance and Music cannot be Pakistani/Muslim culture.

[@endeavour1349]

​@MDVaashir yet it is muslim artists who are in the forefront. Awadh, whose language you adopted as a lingua franca was a hub of art and culture and the much vaunted ganga-jamni tehzeeb.

[@Xxxx-hw7nk]

Pakistan is great because pakistan saved hindu from fanatic islam

[@hotfun07]

No. Pakistan is a Blunder BECAUSE SO MANY CONVERTED MUSLIMS COULD NOT BE BROUGHT BACK TO HINDUISM AND SIKHISM! THEY ARE NOW TRYING THEIR BEST TO APE ARABS, SOMETHIBG THEY HAVENT IMPROVED UPON SINCE LAST 1000 OR SO YEARS.
