How many more peopel is your community going to kill before you guys are satisfied? As far as driving goes there is no dicipline in Pakistani. I have been to Karachi and I have seen people drive, its not just Pushtoon, everyone is a damn owner of the road. Pakistan1234 next time you see a Muhajir drive committing such a crime, are you going to kill him. You guys should thank your forefathers for making you guys an isolated community of Pakistan. You guys need step out of karachi and Hyderabad to see for your self how the rest of Pakistan lives.

I agree with you that Karachi should get its due share and I will never argue against it. So you are saying there is no Biradir and Khandan amoung you guys....There is no quota in Punjab because outside of Lahore there are quite a few colleges and facilities, peopel stand a chance to get similar standard else where. whereas if you look at Karachi, people from don't stand chance as far as opportunities goes, hence the quota system. Its that all the seats are reserved for rural Sindh, it is just a certain percentage which is fair enough.

Adnan look on higher posts in Federal Government from 1947 on wards and tell me who had those kushy jobs?

Yes sir ; i speak for my self and all the friends i know.. migrants, non migrants.. we dont have khandans, we dont have biradiris, neither i believe in it ... and sir i am not talking about federal government... i am talking about administration of karachi... the day to day life.. police, customs, traffic, district courts, civic centre etc etc....

and if there are no good uni outside karachi then government job to make on rather than kick out a deserving student for a rural quota... and quota in government jobs and css doesn't make sense.. no wonder our bureaucracy is in deep shit

I have lots of friends from Karachi and my wife side of the family all belong to Karachi. I agree with you they should hire people from Karachi in teh police, customs and other departments, I start having probelms with the defination of who belongs to karachi. We all know wha t your defination of Karachi is! All those speak Punajbi, Pushtoo, sindhi, Balouch are outsiders accorning to you peoles difniton. That is why most of friends from Karachi talk "hum loog" and "Tum Loog", you people dont care whether me being a Balouch might have lived in Karachi for several generations. But the guy who just came from across the border he automatically becomes 'hum loog", people of Muhajir decent. You get my point. People in Police may be Punjabi but if has been living i Karachi for generation has and should have the same right as a muhajir livng there, right?

Only one and one reason only- Quota system. Why is there a rural urban differentiation in sindh?? It all started because of that.
And the reason theres discrimination because what you give is what you get in turn.

wrong.... dnt knw wht kind of karchi ppl u r talking to.... my friend circle include karachi born ppl who speak punjabi pushtun and sindhi ...the common thing amngst us is education and vision for pakistan and forward looking aproach... one of my best friends is from chaghi districts.. came to my uni, studies in karachi and we went to his place on vacations....

remove any personal grudges linked to yr personal experiences...

i have one punjabi friend who constantly talks abt this topic and he feels he is alienated in karachi.... but its not us it was him who is tightly bound to ethnicity and what ever his fore fathers culture was... when ever he initiates discussion talks abt he will only marry punjabi girl and boasts abt his history and culture and that he is a rajput all that bull shit....

we the younger generations of karachi or lahore or quetta gives a fuuck about lahores history or karachis heritage or punjabi biradiri or lucknow salees urdu or what achievements our fore fathers did.. we believe in what we are doing and what we can do.... and the only history we have and we can boast about is quran and hadees.... and we beleive if we want to marry the girl being a muslim is enuff... this is the karachi im talking abt

My friend let me try to explain how I feel about this situation, I don't know if others would agree with me or not.

1. If I call my self muhajir, that does not mean I hate non muhajirs. But the feeling that I get is once we start identifying ourself as muhajirs, the non muhajirs somehow get offended. I still don't understand what is the reason, maybe you can shed some light on it.

2. Secondly I got an impression from your post, that you think muhajirs kill anyone and everyone who has different point of view then their's. Read your remark in red, it is one very callous and irresponsinsible remark. You sound like you think that muhajirs are some sort of killing machines.

3. If you are living in New York, California or Texas, you can without any problem call yourself New Yorker, Californian or Texan, because these are just geographical locations and nothing more. Whereas Sindh, Punjab, Balochistan and Pk are not only geographical locations but they represent very rich and beautiful cultures. It is not easy to adopt or assimilate into these cultures in 60 short years, it will take many decades. But in the mean time we can enjoy and share these cultures with our Sindhi, Balochi, Punjabi, Puktoon and other brothers.

Lastly I want to ask you one question, Do Punjabis, Pakhtoons and Balochis living in sindh identify themselves as Sindhis or do they still call themselves Punjabis, Pakhtoons and Balochis? Please do answer this question.

I disagree with u abit assimilating into cultures.. culture wil become obsolete in next 50-100 years with fast moving world ,global villlage and media.. culture will only be in books and tv programs.... we are following capitalism and it will slowly wipe the cultural link wth the society... the only thing left with us will be our religion and pakistan...

When you immigrate on your free will to a different part of the world, you try to assimilate.
I have been in Florida for 26 yrs and don't call my self an immigrant, my children are born here, they call themselves as American Muslims and Floridians period. Yes I acll my self Pakistani/ American thats because i was born in Pakistan and love Pakistan. You generation like Adnan said are born in Sindh province, hence Sindhis. Mujahir is not an ethnic group it consists of different ethnicity coming from India. Why can't you be Sindhi?

I am sorry not Muhajirs but MQM is a killing machine

Come on Ali four generations have passed and you are still an immigrant? My roots go back to UP but we have settled in Pindi. all my brothers and sisters speak Punjabi and we call our selves Punjabis. Here lies the difference, we have assimilated and youguys have that aura of superiority complex hence resistance to change.

Lastly I want to ask you one question, Do Punjabis, Pakhtoons and Balochis living in sindh identify themselves as Sindhis or do they still call themselves Punjabis, Pakhtoons and Balochis? Please do answer this question.

Like you said New Yorker in California is still a Yankee, but I am a Floridain since I immigrated from the outside. Therefore a Pakistani living in New york is no longer a Pakistani by second generation, he is a New Yorker. And you guys have been in Karachi since 1947, come on give me a break.

like u said u are americans not californians.. we are living in karachi we dont speak sindhi... we are not sindhi... our provinces are divided on ethnic basis which is the fundamental mistake.. it shud have been divided on administration basis.... khyber pakhtun khwa hazara fiasco is the lesson....

like u said yr children are floridians . is there any language called florish?? but there is a language called sindhi, balochi, pashto and punjabi.... i cannot call my self sindhi ... i am not... my friend whose father is from bannu whos a pathan cannot call him self a sindhi.... i cannot relate my self to any ethnicity... there is no ethnicty such as urdu speaking.. its created by ethnically motivated ppl who want to sound different... i am a pakistani.. and i live in karachi, sindh..... just like a person will say i am a pakistani i live in hyderabad, sindh.... lahore,punjab.... quetta, balochistan.....

the problem i have is ppl of karachi are not given the city's administration..

sir u are living in US for 26 years so u are not aware of our generation.... we are long done with urdu speaking or punjabi etc.... the only issue i have is me or my children will always have to face the wrath of domicile if they want to work in civil services... and the previous example of our city being always alienated in terms of funds for development

One of highest literacy rate in the country
Highest per Capital Income
Largest number of Higher education institution in a City
Best Airport in the Country
Largest Industrial concentration in the country
Best medial facilities inthe country
Hub of Electronic and print media

And yet feel discriminated......No my friends it is a mindset.....which is we are superior, others are less educated, have no culture, have no manners, have no history...Urdu is the best....We want all the upper level jobs....don't ask me to go to Armed Forces etc etc. Don't ask me adapt to the local culture; Don ask me to learn their language; Call me surti; call me Delhiwal; Call me UPian; Call me Bihari but heavens will fall if you call them Sindhis...here lies the problems. They have refused to be called Sindis and now they are complaining. Any body from the rest of the Pakistan is an outsider to them, but guy coming from across our eastern border is their next of kin....What shameful mindset.....Good example is when the most recent spat between MQM and PML(n) occured, the guys who were cursing outside the Parliment were saying every thing and anything about Punjab and Punjabis, Whereas Chaudary Nisar MQM leader is blah blah and never said Urdu speaking or Muhajirs...here lies the difference. Migrants from India to rest of Pakistan have assimilated....I REPEAT the magic word ASSIMILATED...Try it, it might help you guys

Brother,we are all Pakistanis.Do not differenciate in terms of provincialism,language,creed,caste etc.This type of attitude will not only destroy Pakistan,it will be fatal for The Ummah.I would request you to read Rasool-i-Pak's last Khutba.He precisely spoke about this problem.please let's not destroy ourselves.
