RELATIONS BETWEEN INDIA AND PAKISTAN

By- Vasav Buddhdev (MAM sem 1)

When one talk about relations between India and Pakistan, we all have our own beliefs about
this matter. Either it is positive or negative. And all of us will give our opinion about this. The irony is
that, they all are right about their opinion at their place, but as a good citizen of our country we must
have positive belief on this matter.
In fact, India and Pakistan are not two countries; they are two fronts of a river. When the
citizens of both the country give their attention in the water of the river at that time we can use
properly that water.
The main reason of conflicts between the two countries is Kashmir. India has Kashmir, and
Pakistan wants Kashmir. Because of this reason India fought with Pakistan 2-3 times. Yes, all the wars
were won by India. But by doing war we cant develop our relations, and also cant gain anything. There
are some rules made by our leaders for Line of Control (LOC). But Pakistan does not follow these rules
and they frequently intrude at border and create problems. For this, the citizens of India have rage on
Pakistani politicians and army. Sometimes Pakistani army crosses the border and spread terrorism in the
villages which are near the border. Pakistan must develop such kind of maturity about following these
types of rules.
On a positive note, India and Pakistan are same in the subject of film industry. Many Pakistani
artists come at India to give proper platform to their art. Many actors and actresses have played roles in
bollywood films. Ali Zafar , Afzal Khan, Javed Sheikh, Mahhomad Ali, Zeba Bakhtiyar ,Veena Malik,
Meera, etc. Many songs of Pakistani singers are featured in bollywood film Like Nursat Ali Khan, Rahat
Fateh Khan Ali, Atif Aslam, Noor Jahan, Abida Parveen. On the matter of art, we can say that they are
Pakistani but by the love of Indians they are known as Indians.
At the time of partition, India helped Pakistan with Rs 65 cr. Pakistan also helped India at the
time of earth-quake in Gujarat with 2000 blankets, and more. In fact, Pakistan was the first helper
among all the countries. So we can say that people of India and Pakistan have intimacy but at time of
matter of Kashmir, Pakistani government is ignoring this. In Guajarati there is a saying that sau no
saath sau no vikas. (Development of all, with all). Let us hope that both the nations rise above the
Kashmir issue and grow together with the help and support of each other.
