1971: Fact and Fiction: Views and Perceptions in Pakistan, India and Bangladesh.

Since the Crusades and earlier, the West has never felt comfortable with the idea of a Muslim state. Same has been the case with Hindu India and some others. One of the undiscussed problems faced by Pakistan since its birth in 1947, has much to do with this silent antagonism.
‘1971’ needs to be looked at from this perspective as well. Pakistan has had major successes and major failures. Pakistan is an experimentation in Islamic statecraft in modern times. In fact, Pakistan’s soul is bigger than its size.
According to Nehru, Hindu-Muslim question in the subcontinent is “something psychological.”
The growing Rashtriya Swayamsevakh Sangh mindset is not good for India, and its future.
The world is gradually heading towards religious fascism. This is a fact. Any floccinaucinihilipilification of this view, would be counterproductive.
