From the very early stage
of our education,we are taught that "Unity is strength".Many of the early
reformers of our country have always urged and emphasized on this fact and told
the people to not to divide themselves on the basis of caste,creed,color or
religion.Once the concept of ,"We,They" develop in a nation,then one can be sure
of the consequences and the results.In order to emerge as a powerful country,it
is very important for the citizens and the natives to eliminated the concept of
"difference" from their minds and to think themselves as "one".
Unfortunately,"racial discrimination" prevails in our society.We,Pakistanis have
divided ourselves into various sects and casts which have resulted to numerous
social problems.The formation of Pakhtunwa is an example!.Instead of thinking
and working as a nation,we prefer to think about our honor,our prestige and our
goals.Instead of investing money in our own country,we prefer to settle our
businesses abroad and serve other countries.Do we ever see or hear any prominent
Indian,American,Russian setting up its business centers in our country?Every
individual thinks about his own goods and benefits.
What feels even more
distressing is to see the prominent leaders,actings as "agents of foreign
powers",diploiting their own country's peace and prosperity and adversely
affecting the education,agriculture and other sectors.
The unsettled disputes among various political parties lead to mass
killings.Number of people die everyday,on the charge that they were
mahajirs,they were Punjabi,they were Sindhi etc.The racial thoughts have
actually given rise to the conflicts.
The need of the hour is to fill the communication gaps and eliminate the element
of "discrimination amongst us".What the present generation lack is co-ordination
and moral support.Most importantly,we should understand that it is the evil
designs of the "foreign parties" to stir up conflicts among the people to divide
our country into blocks.
I would say,we Pakistani's should wake up and put end to the growing menace and
work together,not for personal but "national" interest also.
