Khuda ki Qasam Abbasi, I am telling you my personal story.
After highly inspired by Shaheed Rashi Minhas, in 1978 as a young patriotic Pakistani, I applied for GD Pilot. Got all the exams and necessary tests passed and at the end on medical examination, I was personally told by an air force medical officer, (I am quoting his words that I heard when I was only 17 years old, I still have echo of those words)
He said,
"OYE YEH KARACHI WALON da munda kithey Fauj ich warh rihya hai" and further because I am 5' 11" tall, he asked "are you really a PUTTAR OF A KARACHI FAMILY"?
A pedestal fan was there, the officer pointed his finger towards the fan and told his other fellow in the room, "Oye Karachi de mundey aes pakhkhay da aggoN ve nai khalo sagde, ae inna tagra munda kithoN se agaya ae is Karachi wich "
Finally I was not selected.
I am NOT saying that I was 100% physically fit for the job and they rejected me because I was from Karachi or from Muhajir background.
All I am saying that the words he used were enough to change a 17 year young Pakistani and turn him to think differently. It was 1978, the same year when Altaf Bhai founded APMSO, and I joined him right away and I am still there.
We are not against any Pakistani community, we are against the special mind set that prevails against us. You agree or not, upto you.
