IIn a week when we can talk about the surprising debut of Pakistan’s spy chief on national television. or the cricket dispute with Zimbabwe surrounding Pakistani Mr Bean, Or the Indian media’s ‘joy’ over former Prime Minister Imran Khan for ‘exposing’ the ISI and the Pakistani military, the past week has given us plenty to eat. But for this I choose to focus on the lost-now-found love of Gujranwala pot Or grandson, Rishi Sunak. The new prime minister of the United Kingdom is now among the millions of petty things that India and Pakistan want to fight over.

Rishi Sunak Zindabad

Residents gathered in Gujranwala, the city of wrestlers, including some Wrestler, The British came out to congratulate the PM, about whom they did not know till now. They say that he is the son of the soil. With a poster written ‘Rishi Sunki’ Proud Gujranwala Pakistan Ke’, these rather animated men raised slogans like: Zindabad, the grandson of Gujranwala city, (Grandson of Gujranwala remained immortal) and Rishi Sunak Zindabad (Sage Sunak lives on.) A self-proclaimed biographer recounts how Sanak’s grandparents left the city “and went straight to Kenya without stopping.” He insisted that “They didn’t even stop drinking water in India (He didn’t even stop drinking water in India),” claiming that Sunak’s legacy is only Pakistani. It is a different matter that Gujranwala was in India at that time, because no line was drawn for Pakistan. Sadda Banda A, Gujranwala Da A. Be warned, this fan envy is contagious.

Rishi Sunak’s face is wrapped in Gujranwala. Naila Inayati

While celebrating, we get to know several unknown facts about the Prime Minister of the UK. Some of which he might not even know. Like, how at the age of four, Rishi Sunak’s teacher predicted that he would do great things in life. And marrying a billionaire was the “great job” she was destined to do, her new fans tell us. These wrestlers are proud of Sunak’s achievements, mainly because Gujranwala has a man of fame who does not have a “protruding belly”. Man-crush alert!

Indian or Pakistani

At this point in time, in the battle of claims, most of us don’t want to remember that Rishi Sunak is actually British. Or, for that matter, that he actually has to run another country. Tracing his lineage might not even be his 100th problem. The excitement is the same as claiming Kohinoor and Basmati rice. That is mine is yours (What is yours is mine), but forgetting when i was yours (when i was yours) in this instance. sample title”culinary origin Hindu became British PM”. OK, sure, but how? Sunak’s ancestors were gone in 1935, but let’s fight back to what was India, with no Pakistan. The origin of Rishi Sunak is also the ‘Unfinished Agenda of Partition’ after many wars.

Actually Gujranwala is in today’s Pakistan. But we won’t get the headline reading, “Pakistan got its first Hindu PM”, because Pakistan prohibits its Hindus or non-Muslim citizens from holding the highest public posts of Prime Minister or President. Let alone the PM, the caretakers of temples and gurudwaras are also majority Muslims. Even the federal cabinet has no members from minority communities.

All the time is good for conspiracies. Like, what if as Prime Minister of Britain, Rishi Sunak takes India’s side on Kashmir? Or claims like Pakistan should have Sunak in his corner to arbitrate with India. He feels that this mediation can be as useful as a former US President Donald Trump promised Imran Khan when India abrogated Article 370. We’re not forgetting the 30-minute stand on Fridays.

It is hardly surprising to see Sunak as the ‘other’ conspiring against Pakistan. Now if former Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif cuts the cake, then Diwali In London, this was seen as his attempt to appease a Hindu prime minister in Britain. stunned mind? Wondering whether Jamaat-e-Islami Diwali gift distribution is for visa-free-arrival in the UK? Wait until they find out that Joe Biden has already called the craze, and there’s a video of it too. Same video confirms that someone is dipping biscuits Tea Is a certified Desi. Now US President calling UK PM ‘Rashid Sunook’ is no coincidence, Rasheed would be his name today if his family lived in Pakistan. Food for more conspiracies.
