Stop. The Lunar New Year fast approaching incense make us all scrambling to stay ahead of the demand. Why. Its good to have you with us tensions between india and pakistan have been high since last year when a series of events pushed both countries to the brink of wall these include airstrikes on the withdrawal of special status of the indian controlled portion of the disputed kashmir region now in an exclusive interview to pakistans Prime Minister in bonn conses this is down to an extremist ideology and extremists. In india imran khan was speaking to editor in chief enos. Oil industry im about we were nearly facing a war last year and ever since Prime Minister modi scripters special status for indian administrators kushner last august its getting even more tense what is your government doing or planning to diffuse this tensions with new delhi look i was the 1st. Political leader to warn the world about what has happened in india. India has been taken over by an extremist a racially extremist exclusive ideology which is called hindu. Ideology stems from r. S. S. R. S. S. Was born in 1025 more dalit its parisian was the nazi party in germany a Nuclear Armed country of 1300000000 people is in the hands of extremists and so not only are people of india going to suffer and theyre already suffering rights demonstrations but kashmir. To be specific 8000000. 00 kashmiris now for over 5 months are in a state of siege and its because of the artist ideology which believes that only india belongs to hindus other minorities are inferior. But Prime Minister condon many pakistani people who also say that the human rights situation in the pakistani part of caution is also not perfect how do you answer to that. Well this is very easy why dont we invite anyone anywhere in the world can come and see the pakistan side of course. And then they go and see the indian side of crucially for our friends ourselves in that interview refers to the rostrum save uk song thats the ideological fountain head of Prime MinisterNarendra Modis b. G. P. Party but for more on this interview im joined by roger article bottom from the school of International Studies at belize device University Professor other gopalan thank you so much for making the time sara. Is the hindu or hindu nationalist ideology of the r. S. S. Effectively dictating indias relations with pakistan. No i i think there may be a small aspect of it but the primary. Disagreement in india and by a. Lot of longer standing obviously than b. G. P. India and bugs i have had denzel asian ship for the last year was in the big independent because we didnt mines are becoming independent and therefore d or kashmir and so that is that this is a longstanding dispute and a longstanding disagreements between the 2 countries this is not specifically about the b. Or the hard as it is even though there are it illumines of elements within the b. Debian audiences that have a harsh view of pakistan but this is not the order of leadership is not being determined by that what Prime Minister mark carney saying or some of the kind of hard from a number of politicians in pakistan or all of last year in which the art of science is always brought up and its always mentioned why do you think that keeps happening. Because i think its not where its a good excuse for august son to not look at the real reasons for the for the state of the relationship between india and pakistan because obviously the india by this than dollars did not and i in the last few years since the bee to begin to power. A spin in a in about shape or right away and saw those that i think i think might have lots of disagreements with the busy bee and without us and so on i dont think it is right to blame them alone for the state of the relationship if you were to call that. Prime minister morley did make an improv do with that event to love or to visit with the previous Prime Minister as a bit of as a gesture of goodwill there saw i dont think that there are. Theyre not like us that have visited events with a video analysis on these issues on our army these issues but this is not one of the issues on which there is. One on which they can blame them but this year the relationship that this has been dismal is a more structural reasons right stay with us professor because iran can also explained why he thought the world wasnt paying greater attention to the kashmir issue i just like to play that sound bite now and get your reaction after that. Pacific. The silence of the world is done by one because of commercial interests india big a big market and number 2 i think. In the strategic. Western mind india is supposed to be a counterbalance to china and therefore you see a completely different approach to what is the all this. I am afraid this is going to pose a threat not just to pakistan and the neighboring countries or to the indian minorities but eventually this will be a threat to world peace professor you heard that sound bite would you say tension between india and pakistan are a threat to world peace the way iran contra ms. No i mean so i mean its a lot of. It is regarding obviously that you know it in the end by india but then issues. Do have. You know do have consequences for the region and do have some consequences for or International Politics is that really but it is just that this is somehow a major threat or louises that really is not is absurd i mean i think that is not the case there is a pakistani has for a long period of time or at least 20 years now i dont dare to say it is that it is that they dont need that escalation and it was a nucleus commission in the region if in other words the commercial war should break over any picture this early to the Nuclear Level amended to countries start lobbing Nuclear Warheads that each other that it will have. Consequences of the words on might that is this is or this is that i got lost standing this is just being slightly modified to suit me not to suit the current going out and sort of conditions but this is been a longstanding argument that i was in as i had nothing nothing really new here and it was ridiculous no d it will and it is even less true today. Right whenever you have ever that i mean i thank you so much for joining us for us our dish project on pollen and you can visit it up of upside of a dot com for more of that exclusive interview but pakistans Prime Minister can. Do badass statue was carved into a mountain face in afghanistan one of the most famous images representing the cultural history of the country but in 2001 they were turned to dust by the taliban which blew them up for being non islamic however in the us since their remaining Cultural Treasures in the wild had a tinge balmy and valleys in central afghanistan have been coping with a new major threat you know isnt brought on by climate change. The cliffs of bamiyan have long borne the scars of human damage this holiday used to be home to one of the 2 buddhas of bamiyan. The centuries old statues were blown up by the taliban in 2001 scene is full sidles now the cliff face another threat long dry spells followed by heavy rain and snow a speeding up erosion here. It was not how it should be as it was in its former state the raza lot of snow in a huge number of visitors coming if they work on it that would be better but if it stays like it is then it will gradually be destroyed by rain snow and earthquakes. Further along the valley is hard hala this place is known as the city of screams after its residents were slaughtered by gangs khan in the 1200s. The ruins attracts thousands of tourists every year erosion is a problem for the ancient buildings here too according to some human interference is also contributing to the state of disrepair. And. Its increasing every day. And the reason is that there are huge numbers of visitors. Also most people are not familiar with the culture of how to behave with historical sites. Many poor families occupied the caves carved into the mountainside they say they have nowhere else to go. They were going to. We live in these caves if we were provided shelter somewhere else we would leave because people are lighting fires in the caves and they are being damaged. So it is better for the government to give people a home so that they can leave. The uns Cultural Agency unesco is helping the Afghan Government preserve the caves and ancient landmarks but solving problems requires money and a change in attitudes for a country riven by conflicts thats easier said than done.
