Before you take on your rivals….


"Imagine, you have given everything in last days, have used every tactic in rule book; you are content that everything is in order. Then you hear that the town has been touched by another wave of hatred and is being rocked by chants of Kafir Kafir", my friend while narrating his first hand account was sad….

It happened in the evening of Yume Ashura on 28th December, when fanatics from the town gathered in the name of Sahaba R.A. Reason: the story goes that nomads (pakhi waas/ jhugiwalas) broke the route and provoked anger within Sunni community. It's worth mentioning here that for many years these poor people have been using the same route to reach Imambargah Bhutianwala, Kabirwala. This anger supported with bad intent started something that had to potential to blow the whole town. Once again Kabirwala on fire, yes it was possible. The pressure was built on administration and FIR was registered against the innocents.

But why this was done?

The main brain behind this whole saga has the history of using sect for personal benefits. Only few years ago, this guy put a "haar" on a dog's neck with the name of a sahabi, and tried to create rift in Chak Sher Khan. This time, this guy has stake in Fauji ground and wants Jhugiwalas kicked out. Anyone touched by this issue, please remember that this is not for religion. This is effort for complete control of Fauji parao and ground.

A humble suggestion to my friends – Before you take on your rivals, please revisit the intentions of your leaders. May be a dog bearing the name of respected personality is being fed by your own…
