the creation of India and Pakistan just lead to oppression within our own people. Without the British, we just learned how to oppress one another. Broken states, ignored, forgotten by the government which represents an inaccurate majority. Hundreds of rich languages and cultures dying out, as the nation scrambles to become “developed and advanced”. That subcontinent was once a marvel to the rest of the world, the land of Muslims, Sikhs, Hindus, Parsis, Buddhists and God knows who else. Now there’s a Islamic state and a Hindu ‘majority’ state. They’re both so caught up in representing that image and saying “No, we’re India” or “No, we’re Pakistani”, that everyone else in between is struggling to show their mere existence. It’s not fair. It’s not freedom, man.
Another perspective.
