Yesterday, Pakistan won the match against India. Surprised? Don’t be.
In the larger context, it doesn’t matter to the Pakistani establishment who wins or loses. What matters is constantly engaging with India.
When Pakistan plays against India, Pakistan is viewed as a normal state. When Pakistani actors act in our movies and their singers sing in our films, it hyphenates a relationship that ideally should not exist.
So desperate is Pakistan to engage with India that a cricket match is dressed up as “war without blood” which people of both the countries enjoy.
Think about it…no one wants to go to Pakistan. No one talks about Pakistan on the global stage. No nation welcomes them. Pakistan is on life-support; not just it’s financial condition, it’s diplomacy, it’s security and stability but also it’s reputation. It is almost a global pariah. It should sit next to North Korea, not India.
But when India plays Pakistan and 500 million people across the world watch, for that brief moment, Pakistan becomes a normal state. The more we engage with Pakistan, the more normal Pakistan seems, to the world.
We are responsible for the mainstreaming of Pakistan. Pakistan rides on our good reputation to live, even if momentarily, in the shadow of respectability. That is our biggest and most unforgivable crime.
Yesterday, technically we won. Actually, we lost.
This is Italy’s new Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni.
I’ve never heard any politician so perfectly explain what we’re up against and why we fight.
When you watch this video, you’ll quickly realize why the establishment is afraid of her.

@RoyalHillton Worst hotel I have ever stayed in. Rooms are freezing cold, heaters don’t work and on calling house keeping they provide extra blankets rather than fixing the heating. DISGUSTED.
India's Oldest party which didn't find any Indian out of 1.38 billion population worthy enough to be their President & imported a foreigner to preside them is wondering why Indians don't trust their party
Hindu festivals are coming. Brace yourselves for seasonal 'experts' of environment, climate change and pollution. Also, 'kutta-billi' lovers will give 'gyaan' to people who love all animals equally.

Jharkhand police removed banner 'Hindu Fal Dukaan' from fruit shop. It wasn't written anywhere that non Hindus can't buy fruits from there
1. What about banners of 'Halal certified' on shops?
2. What about hotels & dhabas which have 'muslim' in their name?
Where is secularism?
