Say No to War

Say No To War


  BJP–India's ruling party– clamors for war with Pakistan. Glorifying war has exposed the jingoistic approach of of Modi regime. Modi's government is making lofty claims given the time of general elections in India. Anti Pakistan narrative may bring him electoral success. Power thirsty BJP vowes to isolate Pakistan and cripple her economy. In the wake of Pulwama attack, different school of thoughts have been demanding for peace and war. They ought to understand the importance of self interest in global politics.  Talking about moral values is not a bad thing to highlight. War causes destruction is an understood fact. As Ernest Hemingway writes in A Farewell to Arms "there is nothing as bad as war. " War has no end once it gets started. On the contrary, there is nothing as good as peace and stability. Society having pacifist and sane mindset prospers at good rate. However good peace is, pragmatic approach asks for adopting a totally different approach.
 Here comes the all important factor of foreign policy :self interest. Modi's interest lies in rising tension and escalation between neighboring arch rivals. Given the time of general elections in india, keeping in view Machiavellian perspective, it is not a bad move. BJP is struggling to regain power; Pulwama attack may be a straw for drowning BJP. Pakistan's approach is crystal clear and sane. provide the evidence and strict action  will be taken at the drop of a hat. On the contrary, any military action from India will be retaliated. Pakistan's interest lies in peace, stability, continuity of policies and good geopolitical relations with all the neighbors. A new regime has just come to power in Pakistan so its interest does not lie in war and escalation.
Writer's subjective views: Both countries need to understand the fact that war is destruction while peace leads to prosperity and economic growth. No matter how much interest one has in war, pacifism and sanity have no alternative. Let peace prevail.

Issues of the Third World (Pakistan)

Since evolution of civic life on the planet Earth human beings have been facing innumerable issues. Nature of such issues vary from country to country. To be more precise, the variation directly depends on the status of the country. As far as feminism is concerned, intensity of its propagation changes with change in geographical boundaries. In third world countries like Pakistan, idea of feminism does not hold ground when compared with issues that geoparadise their survival. Therefore, it is quite evident that third deals with more severe and serious issues than feminism. The third world countries do not have access to the basic necessities of life. A major piece of evidence is that majority of the third world countries struggle to get clean water and food. There are economic and security issues. Moreover, malnutrition, corruption and misuse of natural resources  further the miseries of underdeveloped nations. Leadership has not been able to deliver their promises because of incomp...

Wrong Direction

THERE was at one time a young lady who was keen on games, however when she achieved Grade 7 she understood that in her nation, sports was a vocation which was difficult for ladies to seek after. She would not have had the option to become showbiz royalty, so she changed her concentration from games to studies, and set her eyes on joining the common administration.
