A Great Divide | Nationalism at the Verge of Partiism

NOTE: This article is not fully or even in any case partially discriminated. So, please don't get bothered of the words and sentences used in this article. Stay happy, stay calm and stay blessed.


Walking through the history of sub-continent Indo-Pak, when there was no sign of a nation called Pakistan. An era of dark British Rule, when people of the land were pushed down to less resources, low-level jobs and a low-class life. When Muslims of the land boycotted all government resources, including the main source of light "EDUCATION". Day by day British Oppression was getting stronger & stronger, diffusing all the resources specifically for Muslims.

The Hindus of the land were getting resources and some of them were even getting high rank jobs due to the source of light and hope "EDUCATION".

Then a noble Muslim stood up against all the odds of time to end this ruthless slavery and boycott. He posed a challenge to ruthless & biased british rulers and Muslim clerics. He was threatened to be declared as a Non-Muslim but, he didn't stopped. He had a vision of an educated, prosperous and a strong Muslim Nation. He wanted Muslims to stand in the feet of their forefathers, he wanted them to hold their true culture of literacy tightly, he wanted them to be dignified and united. He was none other than "Sir Syed Ahmad Khan" who started the struggle for a prosperous nation. He pulled out Muslims of the sub-continent from the dark shadows of religious human idolatry to end the boycott started by religious Muslim clerics. He propagated the vision of one unified, prosperous and educated Muslim Nation in sub-continent. This was the start of building a nation called Pakistan, where Muslims of the sub-continent can live freely, they can have access to every resource, where they have dignity & pride and where they can have unified rights.
This unified struggle continued to the time when leaders like Qauid-e-Azam, Allama Muhammad Iqbal, Liaqaut Ali Khan, Chaudhary Rehmat Ali, Mualana Muhammad Ali & Shaukat Ali Jauhar and other notable leaders took charge of building a stronger & prosperous Pakistan. Their move lead millions of Muslims to struggle for a Muslim sovereign state in the light of nationalism. The nationalists marched towards the completion of their historic vision of a free land, a sovereign state named as Pakistan by one of our great leader Chaudhary Rehmat Ali. A time when the nationalists were united as one Pakistani Nation. When nobody was punjabi, nobody was pakhtun, nobody was baluchi, nobody was sindhi, nobody was kashmiri, nobody was hazarvi, nobody was urdu speaking (caste), nobody was caste or ethnicity oriented...... They all were Just Pakistanis, They all were pure nationalists and that is why they all were a part of single unified nation called PAKISTAN. Everybody of them left behind their ethnic identity just for the sake of a Proud, Sovereign and Unified Identity PAKISTAN.

Now it has been 66 years that have been passed away since we got our independence and we are sadly seeing a destructive wave of partiism ending or in better words demolishing our proud Nationalism. Now we are seeing a political war, a political differentiation dividing this proud unified land into different geographical/ethnic identities. We and our so-called patriotic political leaders aired a wave of ruthless party base and geographical differentiation. Now we are more of a separatist than a Nationalist, we are becoming animals pet by our politicians and we are transforming ourselves into puppets being controlled by some pathetic politicians.

Where the hell are nationalists, where are the proud Pakistanis? Isn't just a label for us, now? Why can't we think for a positive, prosperous and stronger change for the Nationalist Revolt. Its not the fate of Pakistan, but its the result of our blind folded deeds that are making it worst ever. We always try to support and justify our parties, but never try to stood up only for Pakistan.

We should deem it as our dearest mother and should stood up for its love & affection that it needed. But, we are busy in giving foul names to each other in accordance with political parties and geographic boundaries, but thinking & caring for Pakistan as a whole one unified nation didn't stand a chance among us. Are we still Pakistanis anymore or not? Are we united anymore or not? Are we a Nation anymore or not? Is it that much needed to follow a political party for the betterment or to show the love of our dear Motherland - PAKISTAN? Can't we on our own work for the betterment of our God Gifted Land?

Our motherland is waiting to see the love of its Nation, not only when an issue against it arises, but all the time. It is dying in the empty hands of fake nationalists. Today it is being neglected by partiism, mindless party supporters, disguised separatists and ruthless political leaders. Today it is in need of unification, inter-country Confidence Building Measures and Need & Priority based Nationalists Solutions (e.g. Kala Bagh Dam, Thar Coal Project, Baluchistan Package in its true sense, Agricultural & Industrial Revolt and Priority Rights of Minorities) across all provinces and many other differences.

Please give at-least a moment to our motherland with a thought of countriism (Pure Unified Nationalism) and leave partiism far behind it. Don't think you can't do things alone, but think you can do it for the love of our Motherland - Pakistan. We are its power, not our political parties. Please for the love of PAKISTAN, end this ruthless Great Divide of partiism and ethnic differentiation. This divide is not the purpose of Pakistan nor its for our unity. Its for political parties to market their slogans to get the chance of ruling Pakistan. The struggle and formation of Pakistan is for us to build a lovely, lively, prosperous and united Pakistan.

Live for PAKISTAN or Live for Your Political Party 
Its Your Choice
But, Then Don't Blame Anybody for Severity in Pakistan
