Despite some shortcomings, Sameer Khatlani’s book is an adequate attempt at breaking down Indian stereotypes of Pakistan
It’s only after one leaves Lahore, Pakistan, and meets Indians, that one realises the place Lahore holds in their imagination. I have met several South Indians who had a family anecdote about Lahore to gloat over. So it’s understandable why Sameer Khatlani would’ve pined for a most hospitable, colourful place that boasts of having produced or welcomed famous names, not to mention a memorable time his elders had spent there. But Khatlani has another fish to fry too: to humanise Pakistanis because Indians have changed and they “watch nothing that humanises Pakistan.” It never fails to amaze me to see how easily normal, decent people can be fooled into hating another religion and a people, even their fellow citizens.

A week after 20 Indian soldiers were killed in clashes with Chinaâs Peopleâs Liberation Army (PLA) in the Galwan Valley in the Ladakh sector, India banned 59 Chinese apps and began a process of implementing more punitive trade measures. Indeed, the crisis that began in May 2020 in the Ladakh sector was unlike other clashes that have taken place between the Indian Army and the PLA in the past. It was more aggressive, unlike the posturings that both armies have been engaging in every year; it was more widespread, and clearly the result of months of planning. In its aftermath, Indiaâs response has raised questions about the countryâs intelligence capabilities.
